I haven't updated this thing in over a year! Oh my goodness. I think about doing it sometimes, but mostly I just don't. As evidenced by the date of the last post.
So I will sum up my absence in photos!
July 2011
 |
| The windows at work fogged up. |
 |
| So we marked em out of service! |
August 2011
 |
| This... thing?... was parked outside my apartment for a few days. I wanted to destroy it. Why would someone pay to have this done to their vehicle?! (yes, the word PIMP is cut out of the trunk lid) |
|
|
 |
| I went to a Foreigner/Journey concert. Got really embarrassingly, humiliatingly drunk and lost my driver's license somewhere inside the Comcast Center. |
 |
| Flew on some airplanes. |

| First radar credential! |

| I drove home from work on a nice cumulus-y day. |
November 2011
 |
| Colts game! |
 |
| I tagged a seat in Lucas Oil with a NATCA sticker. |

January 2012
 |
| We had some questionable weather at the end of the month leading up to the super bowl |
 |
| Preparing for the Super Bowl. I often wish we were busy enough to require a strip bay this big permanently! |
 |
| The few times I've been to a Colts game, this guy's been there. I saw him on TV, so I took a pic of it. Now I feel he needs to be immortalized on my blog! |

February 2011
The Super Bowl!!! Trying times should have laid ahead. However, we lucked out with the weather and the city (and our tower/TRACON/center!) managed to pull off an awesome Super Bowl.
 |
| A few days before the Super Bowl, there was ground fog early in the morning. My coworker sent me this pic of the tower's shadow on it. I thought it was pretty cool! |
 |
| The Super Bowl brought in all manner of aircraft we don't typically see here. |
 |
| The only bad weather day we had the whole week. Luckily, it was early enough in the week that it didn't affect much. |
 |
| The day of the Super Bowl, I think it was around 1 PM EST. |
 |
| The day after the Super Bowl. My shift was late enough where I missed most of the traffic. Kind of a bummer! |
 |
| Got to take a tour of Lucas Oil Stadium the day after the big game. |

March 2012
Visited my boyfriend in Boston for his birthday. We had an expensive dinner at Grill 23, but it was probably one of the best meals I've ever had. Ever!
Not much else happened this month. I remember I got very ill for the first time in 3 years. I had a double ear infection, sinus infection and respiratory infection. All I needed was pink eye and most of my upper body would've been infected with something!
April 2012
 |
| Easter happened. I photoshopped bunny ears onto my dogs, and people thought they were actual bunny ears |
May 2012
I finally got to do a Flight Deck Training. I used the opportunity to go see my family! I was pretty excited, cause I hadn't been home in like 3 years. Plane tickets up to that part of the world run about $800. Big bucks!
 |
| on the ramp at DCA. |
 |
| in an E170. All 4 of my flights were on E170s. Actually, anytime I fly anywhere lately, it's on an E170! |
 |
| Burlington Airport, where I got my first intro to ATC while I was doing an internship at the National Weather Service. |
 |
| Ferry to NY |
 |
| Can't get Yuengling in Indiana :(((( |
 |
| Abandoned building at the Clinton County Airport (they relocated it to the old Plattsburgh Air Force base) |
 |
| The old Clinton County Airport terminal. Sad. |
 |
| My boyfriend came to visit. I picked him up at MDW, so we could spend the weekend in Chicago. I saw this adorable police dog! |
 |
| We went to a game at Wrigley. |
 |
| Then we came back to Indy and saw Lynyrd Skynyrd at Carb Day before the Indy 500. |
|
June 2012
 |
| I attended Beagle Bash to raise money for the rescue group that I got Dylan from. So many beagles! There were about 50 of them there, in addition to a couple non-beagles. |
July 2012
 |
| July 3 was my birthday! I got some pizzas! They were very delicious. |
|
August 2012
Took a vacation on Cape Cod for the first time ever!
 |
| Flying into BOS at sunset |
 |
| West Dennis Beach. And a helicopter. |
 |
| Crab cake sandwich at Nancy's on Martha's Vineyard. |
 |
| Aquinnah |
 |
| Otis ANGB. Returning from a visit to K90 (Cape TRACON) |
 |
| I think this was Coast Guard Beach? |
September 2012
Now we're current. Not a lot has happened so far this month. The dogs have been doggy, and work has been work-y, and life has been... well, life-y. I'm still not a CPC yet, due to more and more training delays. But that's stuff for another blog post, some other time.

We're still reading! At least I am. Glad to see you're still being ATCey.
Wander over to Ohio sometime... we've got Yuengling here now. So we can party like it's 1965! Or however that stuff's been around. Plus, uh, Piper Cubs!
Oh, and I hope the loss of the driver's license was of your own clumsy accord... ;-)
Hi Steve!!
I didn't know they had Yuengling out there! I definitely need to make a trip out that way. I've been wanting to go back to the Air Force Museum!
I did actually physically misplace my license! Upon further review, I realize that sentence may have made it sound like I had an unfortunate encounter with the police. haha
