My late husband and I met on there. The first time he appeared at my door, he presented me with a beautiful bouquet. <br /><br />He was so nervous those flowers were almost welded to his hand. LOL!<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Susan :)Susan J.

When her awful suspicions were confirmed by the guy giving the flowers to another woman, she confronts him. <br /><br />Naturally the flowers are abandoned. The question is, does it look like she used them as a blunt instrument?<br /><br />Fun game. ^^ I actually came here because I saw your interview on Romance Writer's on the Journey. I found your thoughts on chapter organization fascinating, and I was wondering if you'd say a few words on my forum? We're currently having a conversation there on chapters and it would be so awesome if you gave us a few words. <br /><br />Link is here if you happen to have the time:<br />http://www.uninvoked.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=3Uninvokedhttp://www.uninvoked.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8911314544674287828.post-16969287807974088222009-08-01T09:13:53.198-04:002009-08-01T09:13:53.198-04:00Joyce: Oh that's a hoot!

I felt a little silly walking through security with them, and had no idea where to put them so they wouldn't get squished...but was so happy to have them. <br /><br />I think it is for a blind date - those airplane quick dates and the man was supposed to have the flowers. The woman took one look and decided to upgrade to first class. :)Joyce Wolfleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09078785682731583178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8911314544674287828.post-36208075966976938502009-07-31T17:41:41.934-04:002009-07-31T17:41:41.934-04:00Icy Roses: Great story!

How fun to see my airport in your post!<br /><br />I just have to say, those roses you have pictured are absolutely fab! <br /><br />I think that maybe a child was traveling alone from one parent to another. Perhaps the father sent them to the mother for her birthday or perhaps he regrets the breakup, but in the shuffle to get all the child's belongings and make sure they got to their next destination, the flowers were left behind.Editor Cassandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09575298681582664196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8911314544674287828.post-46831601079472951412009-07-31T12:07:36.597-04:002009-07-31T12:07:36.597-04:00Jill, what a cool game.

I'll play along.<br /><br />I think the flight's navigator has a thing about one of the flight attendants, who made the announcement not knowing the flowers were really for her. As she leaves the plane, the handsome navigator catches up to her and hands her the flowers, along with the card bearing her name, which had fallen to the floor and been overlooked. She opens the card, sees the message followed by his name and smiles. They head off to a nice restaurant and thus begins a wonderful courtship.Keli Gwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13236868298400593688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8911314544674287828.post-89210683744202261522009-07-31T11:49:35.948-04:002009-07-31T11:49:35.948-04:00What fun!
