Next day, she hit for 450.00 more! We had a great time and actually saved most of the money (because I am furloughed and waiting for the UI to start). Headed home and got stuck in ATL (which is ALWAYS the case when I try to nonrev through there!)....but you know what, I got an extra night to spend with the one I love and that was great! Got home.....checked the mail and had a letter for an interview at a place I applied, not flying...but more money (which isnt hard to do on 3rd year FO pay).

All in all...a great week!
