Just so you know I track everyone who looks at any of my web pages. I can see where you are, what pages you are looking at and for how long, and a lot more about you.  Why you are looking into my personal life is a bizarre mystery to me. Go away please!

I actually have been blogging lately, but I’ve been doing it here.  A separate exclusive doll blog seemed necessary since it was all I felt like writing about for awhile and I didn’t want this blog to be consumed with doll-related trivialities.  It’s trivial enough just as it is.

Since my last post I have gotten hired as a pilot by an air ambulance company and have moved to Spokane, Washington to help with the company’s 135 certification.

I’ve been really homesick for LA these last few months – not so much because Spokane is awful, I don’t think it is – but because life has been so stressful ever since I got here and that’s tainted my enjoyment of the city.

Here’s a photo of me taken two weeks ago.  As you can see the stress has really taken it’s toll.

Well, I’m pretty much always in a good mood, but the last few weeks I’ve definitely been happier knowing that my training is scheduled and my flight to LA is booked.  Soon I’ll be flying regularly again so it won’t matter where I’m living.  However, the air ambulance company needs to be based out of Seattle, since that’s where the nurses and other necessary resources are I’ll be moving there around August.  I’ve never lived in Seattle before, so this will be another new experience!  I love new experiences!

Spokane, in general, is lovely – it’s surrounded by coniferous forest as far as the eye can see in any direction.  The city itself is very lush with vegetation even in the Winter and has these ragged volcanic basalt rocks and boulders sticking out of the ground all over the place.  There is also some interesting history and lots of great old buildings.  The building I’m renting an apartment in right now was built in 1906.  When I’m there I feel I can get a sense of what is was like to live 100 years ago. I would walk around in Edwardian gowns if I had any.

Another project I’m working on – Royal Hawaiian Air Service – an inter-island Hawaiian airline is moving forward encouragingly albeit slowly.  We have a lot of support and most of the funding, so I should have more news on that soon.  Either way I’ll be going to Oahu again in September, which I’m anticipating since I’ve been missing it ever since my last trip there a year ago.  Something else I’ve been playing around with in my head – getting a horticultural degree at the University of Hawaii…
