I work hard for my money, doot doo doot
Working for a living sucks!
I've been putting in some killer shifts at my new place of work, which seems to be eating up all my time. It's kind of hard to have a life when you're working until 2 am, and are exhausted the next day. I actually like my new little job that I have, but jeez, it really doesn't facilitate having a lot of fun outside work.
Besides working, I've been making plans for the winter. I've got my flights booked to a surprise destination, whoaaaa haaa haaaa, which I will reveal later. Let's just say that's it's nice and warm there, very flyable, and pretty exotic. I never thought I'd be heading out there to paraglide - oh it's going to be great!
I've been trying to arrange everything for my trip - getting a vario, maybe a new camera, bookings, etc. over the last few days - man travelling is expensive! Yikes, things add up out of nowhere...for example, some airlines only allow one piece of checked baggage. A paraglider on top of that? Well, you have to pay like 10 bucks for every additional kg on that next piece of luggage - crazy! Sheesh, it seems like everywhere you turn, you're nickeled and dimed. Let's see, my pack weighs about 22 kg x $10 = $220, screw that! Oh, I'll find some creative way around this one baby!
Here's my "less than ideal" costume that I wore last weekend...facepaint is really not my thing, so I instead opted for a more 'au natural' look.
Are you green with envy? ha ha, oh, nevermind, that was just bad...
In other news, in the past, Cochrane has been somewhat consistently flyable on Thanksgiving so I'm hoping that this Sunday will have history repeat itself. It's great seeing gliders in the air - it's even better though when you're one of them.
The flying season IS NOT dead.
