I'd always wanted to be Pussy Galore from the James Bond movies, but it turned out that while much of the blood was from the passengers, it had been extracted not via inflight assassination but from the presence of the mosquitoes taken on board at the previous point of departure. And that wasn't the first time I had cleaned bugs off the inside for the same reason.Aviatrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13634111275860140084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10000144.post-37413359134453715192009-06-24T18:29:55.069+00:002009-06-24T18:29:55.069+00:00*though*thoughCallsign Echohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07394192594808060440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10000144.post-1735031883603216622009-06-24T18:29:13.128+00:002009-06-24T18:29:13.128+00:00Lucky Aviatrix.

My particular weakness is not the square jaw (thought that's nice too) but sharp cheekbones. You know, that just-got-out-bootcamp-sunken-cheeks-and-rippling-muscles look.<br /><br />*sigh*<br /><br />Word verification: stine.

I've heard women are supposedly attracted to stereotypical masculine faces when selecting sex partners, but prefer more androgynous looks for long term partners. But that's about 4 stereotypes in one sentence. Personally, I'm more attracted to minds, and physically just require their ability to raise one eyebrow.<br /><br />And yes, darn it, you have a nice job. Outdoors with a view but above the bugs and mud. Just be careful to not take the mosquitoes with you. <a href="http://intheovershoot.blogspot.com/2009/06/bug-shield-canadian-shield.html" rel="nofollow">Chad</a> has a horrible/funny story about a trip that required cleaning bugs off the <i>inside</i> of the windshield after the flight...<br /><br />word verification: "metryn"Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09991660841701835065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10000144.post-51966626193030010782009-06-24T03:42:00.700+00:002009-06-24T03:42:00.700+00:00All in a day's work.
