So I'm headed to visit my brother in Wisconsin.
I plan everything out... I follow the airport's guidelines and have my liquids packed and ready.
My bag goes through the machine.
I get flagged.
I'm told I will need to wait as they look through my bag.
I keep thinking, "What could have caught their attention? I just have clothes in there."
Until they open my little purse that I had stowed away my tampons in.
Yep, that's right...My tampons almost became a breach of airport security.
You could tell the guard was embarrassed that he had stopped me for such things.
It actually made me giggle.

I think they just like to "freak people out". My son and his new wife got the "we are searching your bags" this weekend when they left on their honeymoon. I told them that it was probably because they looked like newlyweds and they wanted to find something scandalous in their bags. Ha
ReplyDeleteI guess its a good / bad thing.
ReplyDeleteI hate all the delays that have become the "norm" at the airport.
BUT
If I'm gonna fly I want to know or it to appear at the very least that I am safe.
PS I would of laughed my ass off.
They so over due security anymore. It is such a joke!
ReplyDeleteLOL, did they think they were little mini missiles??
ReplyDeleteHa! It made me giggle too.
ReplyDeleteI smuggled a camera into a mettallica concert in a box of tampons once. I was surprised the secruioty guys didn't check it because it was a HUGE box of super absorbancy extra wides with wings that filled the whole purse. As if...
