I've traveled over 10,000+ miles and many different time zones this month on delta's dime ( First class all the way if you can believe it )

Got a recall notice last week. Goin back to work and no more waiting for unemployment and wsting time with my Wii.
The good thing is that I am going back to fly. Bad news is that I wont get to spend as much time with my fiance as I have the last 5 months.

-Started my first graduate class (science) and think I'm going to like it.

-Got tentatively hired (still waiting for formal confirmation and start date) to be a pharmacy tech at a new drug store opening up in my town. I hate my current company.

-Got a new health plan offered through my school that gives me student health access and lots of additional coverage, and will save me close to $900 over the next 8 months as opposed to the plan I'm currently enrolled in.

-With added income and general life improvements I should get back into flying actively soon.

Get that CFI and you won't have to spend so much time at the boring job.

yes it does!

Got displaced, then in the last week, got a furlough notice, got laid off from my 2 year relationship (over facebook...and i dont even have facebook, heard through friends before she told me), got sick on a trip and had to spend 24 in TUL, basically my life just crumbled.

HOWEVER, doing my best to see that it'll get put back together better than it was and best of all...

....there's nothing keeping me in St. Louis anymore! I'm outtie!

Maybe I should mind my own business but.....

I can't sleep, (body clock's all f'd up)

It will get better. If you can afford to,... stick it out.

I'm on a 102 hour layover in Amman, Jordan. Tomorrow, the other FO and I are taking a bus to Aqaba for some scuba diving,... Red Sea style.

It wasn't that long ago that I was loving the layovers in Flint, Saginaw, Erie, PIT etc... looking for some free bowling or cheap beers. And I've got a furlough t-shirt (4.7 years)

But this side a'int that bad.

While you're waitin', don't miss the good stuff....... And a youngin' startin' to crawl...........

That's the good stuff....

good on ya, and the crawlmeister

Got furloughed on the 19th......not so bad, not the end of the world.....took a few days with my girlfriend and headed to Vegas....was there about an hour, hit for 200.00 on a slot machine and she hit 160.00. 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!
