Wow, I had actually forgotten that I had this blog, I use MySpace so much any more. Which is kind of a shame because Flock (the web browser) lets you post directly from a pop-up window in the browser. Don't have to log-in or, in my case right now, be logged on to tap out a post.
Anyway, enough nerd talk. Germany. Damn, it's cold here. It's like 50 degrees for the high. And that is supposed to be unseasonably warm for this time of the year. Normally, there's supposed to be like a foot of snow on the ground. I think that would just about kill me.
This mission is coming at a good time. I had a near mid-air collision with the Friday I left. I dodged him by about forty feet. I was way,way pissed. He learned a whole new vocabulary when he came back to the school. We're going back to an eight hour work schedule when we get back. That will seem like working half-days after the last month and a half. And that would chop about an hour and a half of flight time a day from my log book. But, that is just fine. I can cope. Twelve hour days were getting old. Fast.
Here we are being underutilized. Which means I have some extra time on my hands. And thus I have time to tap the bad boy out. Here in the next couple of days things will start speeding up. Guess that means the government sponsored vacation is coming to a close.
***Late Edit***
So, I started one of my drunken athiest rants (although, I guess you could consider this a continuation of that) tonight. I love when I get some goth wannabe trying to convince me that there is a God, that he is perfect, and all about love, ect. Meanwhile, he has all of Rob Zombie's songs loaded on his laptop. Yeah, you just gave money to someone who makes a living spouting about the devil. Explain that to your god next you talk to him.
