So Busy...

Today is my first legal day off since October 20. Legally meaning "a period free of all responsibility for work or duty should the occasion arise." There have been a few days when I've been on call, but not been called in. Also it's not really a day like most people think. I am officially "off" from 4 p.m. yesterday till 4 p.m. today, which is a day as far as it's 24 hours. I'll gladly take it though.

I'm not complaining though, just needed the break. In fact most days I wish I were flying more hours. I got way more hours in my first month here than any month at my old job except for one. Yesterday I hit the magical 1500 hour mark. It's not as magical as I thought though, since my life hasn't dramatically changed since yesterday. I'm now eligible to apply for an Airline Transport Pilot license, which is basically the highest pilot's license you can get. I have to find time to take the written test first, then once that's done, I can get the ATP on my next checkout for work. Other than that, here's to 2500 hours....

So what am I going to do on my day off? Maybe play Flight Simulator....maybe not, though I would like to fire up the F-16 and blast around South Florida for a little bit. Now that baseball is over, I'm done playing computer baseball and can maybe finish Need for Speed Most Wanted. I'd also like to ride my bike again (haven't been able to do that in weeks), and maybe wash my car. One thing's for sure though, I'll never get around to any of that stuff if I keep typing on here all day, so...have a nice day!
