Overall it's been a light year of flying for me. Not looking forward to seeing my statuses drop, but if you don't use it there's not much point having it either.

It's going to be a little while and a process to get back up. Perhaps the ground will do me good for a while.

Re: Calendar Year 2012 Summary

This was a comparatively quiet year for me, which was nice.

Gave me the opportunity to get some work done around the house, as well as have arthroscopic surgery on both knees. :(

A couple of first's for me as well, flying VA across the ditch and being the first AFF'er to sample a beer in the VA LAX lounge on the day they received their liquor licence. :D
