Keeping busy

I'm on day 3 of a 6 day rotation and I haven't even left my apartment. I'm doing what is called "home reserve." Basically that means I'm all packed and ready to go, but they don't need me to go fly anywhere so rather than have me sit in a hotel, I stay home in case somebody calls in sick or they need an extra crew for something. Somewhere in my gateway (the NYC area), at least one other pilot is doing the same thing since it takes two of us.

I have been extremely productive these past few days. Here is a small photo journal of what I've accomplished:

Played about 7.8 hours of Super Mario World...


...drank about 4 gallons of Coke...


...rented two good movies...

...and two stupid ones...

...listened to hours upon hours of music...


...and ate way too much.

I really need to get a new hobby! Or maybe they just need to put me to work...
