Legend of the Cloud Sailors
Cloud battle in the sky
Captain Arty Arbuckle gazed over the U.S.S stargazer at the clouds in the quiet sky. His crew scuddled around to do chores, preparing to start the air balloon sails. As the ship began moving, he noticed Captain Kraus of the pirate league was coming.
“Start the sails; we are under attack,” yelled Arty.
As the men scrambled to their weapons. Shots were exchanged, but the advantage was not theirs. Just as defeat seemed to be coming, Captain Archie Arbuckle, a separatist pirate, comes to help.
He smiled at his nephew, Arty, “I will let you off this one time.”

Turbulent Travel
Even the crowded plane was welcome to my day. The turbulence was worse than ever, but my day started hectic. The alarm was blaring, but I slept right through it. Thinking that a travel job would be great, but I need more motivation to travel. Luckily everything was already packed. Weighted suitcases and required documents were the least of the troubles. The car was already packed, and stuffing my remaining stuff was necessary before praying not to be pulled over by the cops. The distance to the airport did not help with the high-stress level. Depending is the only good part of the day, not being pulled over.
