I&#8217;m not too excited about the prospects of a commission-only sales job, but she thinks it might work.  I suppose it won&#8217;t matter until we find out if they call her back or not.  Which, fortunately, they can do, because we have a new telephone number now.  If you call me, I&#8217;ll tell you what it is.<\/p>\n<p>I still haven&#8217;t flown since I went to Stillwater on Saturday.  Between telephones and weather, it just didn&#8217;t happen.  The weather cleared up a bit this afternoon, but the winds were quite high.  I would have had to land with a crosswind exceeding that of the &#8220;maximum demonstrated crosswind velocity&#8221; of my airplane.  Since I&#8217;ve only done that a couple of times, and it&#8217;s against my school&#8217;s policy for me to do so, I elected not to go.  Furthermore, it looked like there was a possibility of thunderstorms popping up in the vicinity.  And, I haven&#8217;t landed with stiff winds, much less a crosswind, in a very long time.  Judging from some of the landings I saw out there today, I decided to wait for better weather.<\/p>\n<p>I should be able to fly tomorrow.  I&#8217;m on the schedule twice on Sunday, but it&#8217;s probably going to start storming again.<\/p>\n<p>This rating is going to take me forever, I think.  I&#8217;d hoped to be done before the winter solstice, but it doesn&#8217;t look like it&#8217;s going to happen.<\/p>\n<p>I just can&#8217;t see Joanna as an insurance salesman.  Can you?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, Dad decided to cancel his telephone service. And ours along with it, without warning.
