another nothing post

i really just felt like writing something, so here we go.

i should do a state of the union address type of entry. leaving boston was built up and up and up and then i kid of let it fall flat, as least in terms of blog stuff. so for those who are wondering how i am doing down here in the isle of rhodes here's the update:

i wake up and go to work for 9, sometimes i get there early, by as much as an hour or so. i work pretty much straight through all day and then leave, usually anywhere from a 30 minutes to hour after i should. now then, the old me would be pissing and moaning about this all over the place, about how im not built for this and life should be more than this and what not. youre not going to hear that this time. here's why. i talk to people all day about flying. if i want to, i can walk into one of our hangars and touch a wingtip, i can head outside and watch some planes come in or leave. students consider me a type of authority, almost like the uber student. its great. i dig it heavily. i have to work all weekend, and i cant wait. weird huh?

so thats at least the work portion of RI. thumbs up on that one. how about the rest of it?

nnmmmmmmmggggggg.

tonight there was a massive lightening storm that was flowing just north of my house. i noticed it as i driving back from jj's house. a flash caught my rear view mirror just right. there was no rain. not even any thunder for awhile. just flashes of light coming from behind faceless clouds. and then the light sky lights up like a birthday cake and all at once you see all these clouds that didnt even exist a second earlier. and they they are gone as soon as the lightening hides away again. but for that one split second, everything was clear as day. remarkable. it stretched it self to the ground, across the sky, branched into rakes, and dissappeared again. it was marvelous.
