Update

I need to write more. My sidebar is longer than the post column. :P

Let's see... The doctor says I tore the Medial Collateral Ligament (MCL) in my left knee. It's a "significant" tear, almost all the way through. It's not real bad news, though, because the MCL usually heals very well. He doesn't think I'll need surgery, especially considering all the improvement I've already seen. I'm not wearing the brace for normal activities anymore, but no softball for a couple months yet.

This is my first full week in the office since the end of the last mission. There was personal travel, then family in town, then official travel, then personal travel, then being sick. My inbox is feeling the strain.

I have made a resolution to fly twice a week until I'm ready to take my check ride. I've been going too long between sessions since Christmas. Which reminds me, I never got a chance to post about my long cross-country. I'll work on that post tonight.
