This is one of the first stories that I have written, so I am willing to hear what you think good or bad. I love reading the stories that others have written and wanted to give something back. This story is inspired by a few things that actually happened, but much of it is fantasy. I hope you like it. Part 1 Friday afternoon, my boss calls me into his office and tells me that there is a problem at one of our customers and I need to go the Amsterdam and get it straightened out. I need you to leave tomorrow and stay for a week. A driver will pick you up at your house at 6am. I gather my stuff and head home a little early to start packing. I get my clothes packed pretty quickly and grab my backpack for my personal stuff. I grab my iPod, GPS for the car, camera, and chargers and cables for these and my cell phone. Since I am in a rush I just throw them in the bottom of the bag. I also pack my teddy bear, a pacifier, and my bottle just incase there is some time to play when my work is done. 6am comes pretty early and I see the town car outside to pick me up. I grab my bags and head to the airport. It is a quick ride since it is still early on a Saturday morning. I get to the check-in desk and am pleasantly surprised that since I have a platinum card, I have been upgraded to First Class. Nice!! I check my bag and get my boarding pass. It looks like there are about 1000 people lined up at the security checkpoint when I get there. Luckily, I am able to take the express line since I have a first class ticket now. I get to the front of the line and there are just a few other passengers and flight crew. Everything out of your pockets, no belt, no shoes, next thing you know, you will have a body cavity search. I put my bags on the x-ray belt and head through the millimeter wave scanner. I am standing at the exit of the x-ray waiting for my bags. Bag Check! The TSA employee tells me that he needs to search my bag. Luckily he allows me to put my shoes and belt back on before leading me over to the little table. He starts to unpack my bag, takes my teddy bear out and sets it on the edge of the table, takes out my bottle and pacifier too. He asks if I am traveling with my family, but I tell him I am traveling alone. He sees all the electronics and wires in the bottom of my bag and knows, that I am not really a security threat and lets me go. Have a nice trip! I get to the gate and relax for a little while waiting to board. I take out my iPod and listen to some music while I wait. First Class passengers to Amsterdam on Flight 248 may board at this time. I get my boarding pass out and board the plane. My seat is in the first row with the flight attendants seat directly across from me. Once everyone is on the plane, the flight attendant, a woman in her mid-thirties asks me if I would like a glass of champagne or another drink. I tell her that it is pretty early for a drink, but I would take a glass of cranberry juice if they had any. She was happy to find me some juice, and then served the rest of first class their drinks. The pilot came on with the usual announcements and shortly after we take off. The flight attendant, Beth, asked me if my family was in the back of the plane, since there were a few empty seats left in first class. I told her I am traveling alone this time. She seemed a little confused; it’s just that I thought I saw you with some others at the security checkpoint. I just blushed and assured her that I was traveling alone. Beth asks all the first class passengers if they would like a blanket and pillow. I tell her I would like one as do a few others. She brings them out and starts to hand them out. When she gets to me, she says it looks like we are one short, but I think there might be one more in the back. A little while later she comes back with a thick light pink blanket with little animals on it. She says that it is all she could find. They had given out all of the airlines blankets, but this one she had in her bags. Since she was being so generous, I could hardly turn it down. Thank You I told her. Once things settled down, I pulled up the blanket and tried to get some sleep. Beth noticed that I was having a hard time sleeping on the plane, so she offered to warm me up some milk. She asked if I would like it in a glass or in a bottle. I blushed, but said a bottle incase I don’t finish it all. I was thinking, she couldn’t possibly mean a Baby bottle, could she? A few minutes later she returned with a small plastic pint bottle of milk. Be careful and don’t spill it on my blankie, I don’t want to have to wash it tonight, She said with a smile. I was finally able to fall asleep, with the help of the milk. I was having some pretty strange dreams. I was awoken by Beth asking me if I wanted lunch. I was starving, since I did not eat breakfast, so I was glad she woke me. After eating lunch, I lay back down and tried to get some more sleep. Beth came up to me and said, if you want to sleep with your bear, I won’t tell. I just blushed. She said I was talking in my sleep and was asking for my teddy bear. I blushed even more hoping that was all I said. Sorry to bother you, I said. I curled up with the blanket and drifted off again. This time when I woke up, I noticed something wasn’t right. I had my teddy bear under one arm, my pacifier in my mouth, and Beth sitting in her seat just smiling at me. I quickly took out my pacifier and sat up. Before I could say anything, Beth said, aww you looked so cute. I was speechless. She leaned over and quietly told me I was talking in my sleep again, so she grabbed my bag to get my teddy bear and that’s when she noticed my pacifier too. So, she got them both out for me. Don’t worry, none of the other passengers saw anything, you are in the first row. Shortly after that, we landed in Amsterdam. I folded up Beth’s blanket and handed it back to her. I thanked her for letting me borrow it. She said she was glad to help and that maybe she would see me on my flight back, since this was her route. I told her my return flight was in a week, so maybe I would see her then. I hope so, she said. I gathered my stuff and then headed for the baggage claim. Finally the bags started coming out, but mine was nowhere to be seen. I waited and waited, but it did not come. Crap, what was I going to do now, all my work clothes were in my bag. I went to the baggage office and told them my bag didn’t arrived. They had me fill out a claim form and told me they would bring my bag to my hotel once they found it. I checked my email and there was a note from my boss. The customer had fixed the problem they were having, but I should stay in Amsterdam for the week in case the problem returned. Wow, that’s cool, a paid week in Amsterdam. I still did not have any clothes besides the ones I had on. I went down the escalator to the train platform and took the train to my hotel. To be continued if there is interest.

idiot is a label...

Conducted some wodnerful "Delete post" therapy removing the "babble" posts not related to the OP's original post, or the helpful spanking therapy convo that has followed. Don't like it? Well... spank me!

When I said that spanking was therapy I meant that it was 'therapeutic' in that it helped me. Now some dunderhead wants to tell me differently. I've been to therapists who were useless but I now get my therapy on the end of a paddle bent over a bed. And it works - which means it is therapeutic, ergo it is therapy. End of discussion. I would have thought people would be interested and relieved that someone found a release that works butinstead there is argument over a stupid word! If that is what a Arts degree does for you then I will stick with my PhD in a mathematical discipline thank you very much. At least in that field, 'partial dimensional mechanics' isnt subject to redefinition on a whim.

I never supported Obama. Didn't like Palen either. Ended up voting for Nater. The new republican candidates make it hard to be republican.

Okay, I don't know why this is so hard to get, but I'll point it out again about the ABU branded diapers. Both the SDK and Cushie are the same except the print, unless there's a manufacturer variation/mistake that happens once in a while. They are just larger baby diapers, and a lot larger. Which leads to several things people must consider before forming an opinion on them: Capacity: Real baby diapers were never designed to hold much, but were instead designed to hold some really well. Aside from that, see the price point later. Fit: Round people, different from fat but including many heavy set people as well, will fit the shape better, because most adults lose the baby curves, specifically on the bottom. Not to mention the waist changes shape into adulthood. While they look great on the models, they may not fit everyone well. I prefer their fit because I never outgrew my childhood shape so they fit me "in all the right places," as the old 80's ads for baby diapers use to say. Features: They fit the standard features, elastic waist was not a standard feature in the 80's, it was considered a premium feature then and is still considered a premium feature for all diapers today. The reason for lacking the elastic waist and some other lesser known features (like the end leak "guards") is best in the price location. Price: They are custom ordered. The machines that make diapers have to be set up for different types. Most brands use a standard for the diaper (adult or child) and just change the print or material make up. The manufacturer doesn't have to make any real changes to the set up of the machines for this, they just put something else in the input portion of the machine. ABU, however, has a completely unique design, an adult sized baby shaped diaper. This requires a lot of changes to the machines, so the manufacturer charges more because it increases the number of employees plus they can't produce them with the bulk brands like the others. So ABU put what they could into the product without raising the price too much. You have to realize just how little we pay for this brand compared to how much it could cost. Just for the extra print on the Cushies the manufacturers have to charge a lot more because of the number of colors and patterns. Not to say that your points are invalid, just you can't compare apples to oranges, and that's what ABU brand versus others is like. Oddly, both the Cushies and SDK hold more than they should, ABU increased the amount of padding in the backside due to high requests, and also had to raise the price a bit to cover it. I have never had a leak with them, where even the Bambinos leaked for me. It's all about the fit more than the absorbency there. Just remember, always get a sample pack before you order a case. The really odd thing is that I get them as a replacement for medical briefs, the only medical brands that don't irritate my skin are more expensive and don't fit me right. My only complaint is they should make the SDK plain white, I buy both though. When going out I use the Cushies, when going to the doctor's office the SDK.

I just have to say, a grown adult in a diaper, and baby clothing with a pacifier in their mouth playing with baby toys IS amusing... just sit back and picture the visual.... take say your boss, or your neighbor... now picture them sitting on the floor in a diaper with a tee shirt and a pacifier... and forget for a minute that you enjoy that... adn see it how your boss or neighbor would see it.. it IS visually comical to see... just like seeing two furries scritching or wahtever IS comical when you take it at face value for its visual effect....... but just showing someone participating in a fetish doesn't actually show a 'nutcase'... i mean any picture of someone engaged in a fetish could then be said to only show 'the crazies' or the 'extremists'... but its just a snapshot moment..... thats comical.

Because that's what everybody else can have. When one [larger] group is allowed to do something and another [smaller] group is not, that's what we call discrimination. I enjoy a "marriage" to my wife. It's bogus that it's a religious term and attempts to cloud the debate by bringing God into it is just a smokescreen. I'm a died in the wool atheist and certainly wouldn't describe myself as being in a "union" or a "partnership" because I'm not religious. I'm married and that's that. I'm sure most other non-religious people would feel the same. Why shouldn't gay people be able to have the same things as the rest of us? Saying why don't you just be happy with "civil union" or whatever is like saying "Why did Rosa Parks refuse to give up her seat? She was being allowed to stay on the bus, wasn't she? I mean, it was just a bus ride, it didn't really matter whether she sat in one row or another, did it?" Well that wasn't exactly the point, was it?! It's a civil rights issue.

All people are equal and [should] have equal rights. That is all.

Seriously, why do I need to know what your sexual preference is? I just don't get it! If someone's straight, good for them. Why hold a news conference and announce it? Why make a big deal of it? For you straight supporters, WTF do you want?! What's your MO?
