Will I ever be able to fly again?

I don't enjoy flying. I do it because I have to, but I don't like it. Now let me back up a bit and tell you about our flight to Oklahoma for Christmas. We left Salt Lake City at around 4:45 pm headed to Denver. Everything was fine until in one instant it felt like we dropped out of the sky and the turbulence that followed for about the next 15 minutes is the worst I have EVER experienced!! (And I've done quite a bit of flying. I lived in Hawaii and have been to Tonga.) It was so bad the the female flight attendant yelled to the male flight attendant "GET DOWN" and they both hit the ground. They had been in the process of serving the drinks. The drinks on the cart spilled on the people sitting next to the cart and I seriously thought that there was something wrong with the plane. The flight attendants proceeded to stay on the floor for about 15 minutes and when things started looking a bit better the female got up to push the cart to the back of the plane when the male attendant crawled back and kept telling the female to get back down! In the end they finally made the landing instructions (you know, put your seat up, stow your tray, etc.....) then she said, if in the case we need to make an emergency landing, please leave all your belongings on the plane!!!! WHAT THE?????
So anyway, we landed just fine and everything was okay, but I still called my mom and told her I wasn't sure I could get on the next flight!!! It was good that our flight was delayed by an hour when we landed and then another hour while we were there at the airport. It gave me time to collect myself. I did end up getting on the next flight and was excited to see that we had the very same flight attendants from our last flight. I mean....if they can get on another flight then I guess i can too!
So we board the flight and it take a long time to do so. Then they finally close the doors (so no one can run off the plane, I'm sure) and the captain makes this anouncement............"We are sorry things are taking so long, but I'm afraid it is going to be a big longer. We are number 40 in line for take off. We are only able to use one runway because there has been a plane crash on the other one!" AGAIN.........WHAT THE??????
So I'm sure you saw this on the news...........but our flight landed at 6:15 pm and flight 1404 was taking off at 6:18 pm. No wonder we were so delayed inside the airport! I do have to say, I never heard anything about it while inside. Good thing b/c I wouldn't have gotten on the plane for sure!
The rest of our trip was great, thank goodness.
Okay.....now addressing the plane wreck yesterday in New York. I guess I never thought about birds hitting the engines (GROSS). If I would have thought about it, I would have assumed that they had created something so that it didn't affect the plane at all (whether it be one bird or a whole flock). This new knowledge of birds being able to bring down a whole plane really makes me never want to fly again!!!
P.S. I know the chances of a plane going down are low.....but I bet that is what the people on the New York and Denver flights were telling themselves too!! :)
