My First Flight

Alright, well it is currently 12:35am your time... idk what time it is for me because I’m still on my first flight. I just finished watching Battle Los Angeles and umm... oh right!! Hall Pass (great movie). I still have about 3 hours left on this flight and I’m just gonna put this out there and say that it didn’t start out too well unfortunately. The guy sitting in front of me is a total jerk!! BEFORE we took off not only did he lean his seat back two times too far (which you’re not even supposed to lean your seat until after take off) but shortly after that he accused me of shaking his seat. Personally, I don’t see how this was possible considering that I wasn’t doing anything. But no, it wasn’t just a simple “Hey, could you please stop shaking my seat?”, not for this guy, after I politely told him that I wasn’t shaking his seat he then told me again that I did it. So, I told him once more that I did NOTHING!! He then proceeded to ask me if I had ever been on a plane before which I obviously replied “yes, I have” which he quickly followed that up with “have you ever had someone sit behind you?” now he’s really testing my patience. And again being the amazing person that I am I politely replied “yes, I have”. He quickly responded with “did they ever shake or move your seat?” which I said “I’m not sure, I can’t remember” he said okay, and then with one last remark he warned me and said “well now you know for the future to not do that”. Wow, if we were anywhere other than in a high security place I would’ve been more than happy to give him the ol’ 1 2 but cooler heads prevailed and I did my best to ignore this whole situation. The plane was then about to take off and the stewardess kindly asked him to adjust his seat for take off which he did and I was grateful for. BUT, then the plane took off... and of course this man decides to lean his seat back again, even a little bit further than what it was the first time. To give you a rough idea of how much this guy leaned back would be this. My laptop is currently pressing up against my stomach angled so I can open the screen about halfway. Oh yeah, I’m also sitting totally straight up against my seat. Well that’s all i have to report about my first flight, oh, nope, nevermind. I guess I’ll include the fact that this guy can’t sit still!! He’s constantly leaning back and forth and wanna hear the kicker?? He just tried to lean his seat back even more!! If it weren’t for my computer screen holding back the weight and making him stop I’d probably be able to lean forward and kiss his forehead. And one more final thing, the connecting flight from Munich to Klagenfurt is gonna be rushed, not only did we originally have 1h 30min but the flight I’m currently on was delightfully delayed. I’m not looking forward to rushing through German customs at 3am your time 8am my new time but it has to be done and I can’t wait till I’m on the connecting flight. Only 1 hour as opposed to 8 which is good but then I still have an hour long car ride after that flight. What a long day!! I’m sure that I’ll spend my next flight writing all about the journey I’ve had thus far. But for now good night, I miss and love you all so much.
