Opening Moves

A new life necessitates a new blog. The black and red of the previous roost proved a bit...juvenile for my tastes.

In about 10 hours I'll be westward bound. I'll be the guest of the government in Oklahoma City for an exciting 6 weeks of Air Traffic Control Training at the FAA Academy. Specifically Tower Cab Training for my eventual position at Spokane International Air Traffic Control Tower. Not entirely positive what is going on with my housing at this point. I know I have a booking, I'm fairly certain the government is footing the bill, but I'm not 100% on where exactly I'm going once I get in town. I'm going with the address listed on the invoice.

Moving is never a fun ordeal. 4 1/2 years of college made me used to moving "easy-mode". Packing your entire life up and moving it across the entire country is a bit more work. However, difficult as it may be, my entire life is now boxed and bagged away. Hopefully I haven't forgotten much, but there's always something.

Yesterday we had a sort of family get together/cookout/celebration that Matt is finally leaving. Was interesting I suppose, a good way to leave on a pretty positive note with everyone. Kind of tired of everyone telling me to drive safe, as I'm the safest driver in the family. I'm more concerned with my navigational abilities, I always manage to miss my turn or exit. Lets hope the combination of a new Rand McNally road atlas and the Google Maps printout will keep me on course.

Opinions welcome on the new look of the blog and the title. I'm not 100% set on anything. I'm using a heavily modified 3rd party template, CSS code is such a pain but its worth it for the customization.

That's all for tonight. I'll try to write regularly while at the academy and settling into Spokane. On a side note for anyone who doesn't know me that well reading this, I've never been out west really, and now I'm driving across it and moving out there so it's going to be a bit of a journey...

Night.
