Spills

Stop! Every flight I am on now — well, at least 1 of the 2 roundtrip segments — the guy next to me has spilled his drink on me. Usually none gets on him. “Oh, I am sorry.” The person is always trying to adjust their seat, holding the drink in one hand, and talking to somebody. Pay attention. Nothing like sitting there with a wet leg the rest of the flight.

My wife knows I am going to kill the next guy that does this — or at least verbally abuse him. So today the guys spills and he says something to the effect of “are you alright?”. I started to turn my head to explain to him how I felt and my wife says, “Its OK. He will be fine.” Huh? She wasn’t the one with the wet leg. Grrr.
