Linda called and said get your self over here to blogger heaven.
Little did she know that to do so meant enduring a numb bum from the fifteen hours of sitting in a plane seat in cattle class that progressively got harder the longer I sat there.
There’s one thing that I do like about plane travel and that is the climb as you take off that feeling of the engine thrusting you back into your seat.
On this particular day I was pleased to be on my way as I’d had a hair cut the previous day, wanting to look my best for Linda, she was a bit choosy about how her men looked, and now sporting my favourite number one cut knew I didn’t need to pack my comb.
It was a peaceful flight until the man in the grey suit said with aplomb that he had a bomb in his bag. I went numb all over, I was struck dumb, I sat there my life flashing before my eyes all sense of living suddenly came to an abrupt halt.

Hate that numb bum, but love that climb. Good use of mb!

You too! 🙂

Use your imagination my dear….lol

Yes that is true maybe I should embellish the ending do you think?
Ooh, there’s nothing wrong with a little cliffhanger! And it allows us readers to let our own imaginations fly (excuse the pun)!
Well that is what I think too……have a good weekend..
You too, Michael.
Good use of the prompt, Michael. Numb bum made me LOL.
Ah, I hate a numb bum. Especially on a long flight when I have to climb over people to get out of my seat. And then where do I go? Can’t just step off for a minute. 😛
Oh, and by the way, you’re very handsome, my dear. 🙂
So imaginative 🙂 Your hair looks great! 😉
In this case, the only word I can think of for “mb” is tomb
Struck dumb Lyn? Who’d a thought words would fail you…lol
LOL I thought “tomb” was appropriate in the situation 😉
Oh yeah right…lol😊
