My absence from the blogging world is due to my prolonged challenge with CF daily. Always in and out of the hospital. I'm a patient along with the understanding of patience. My eyes are always plugged into the skies. Denver and Greeley, Colorado have been two places where I have been living life. This weekend of February is the Storm Chasers Convention which again I have failed to be a part of considering I am again in the joint(hospital). This is a part of life. In other reality, I really don't have finances to cover the weekend. Though I envy where everyone can get together for a weekend of chasextravaganza and being with friends. Many think I miss storms on purpose and if I did that I would go skydiving with no parachute. Having said that I do get my forecast wrong if I did go out, and intentionally chased my forecast. But in other circumstances, I have fallen short by watching on my radar screen and spotter network knowing full aware that I had another chance of seeing incredible weather based on some of my excellent forecasting from the hospital. I enjoy nowcasting for my friends when they are out and about on the plains, but it is definitely a mix of the blue and red pill (referencing Matrix), it sucks majorly!
I am fighting everyday and 2012 Chase Season still looks good for me to go out and do the Skinner perspective of weather chasing. I look forward to chase with more friends because I love having a chance to meet new people and getting different personalities and perspectives. Now I am guilty of giving the dirty look of discomfort or unfamiliarity while out and about on the storm chasin plains. I appologize for that right away.
My chase partner in crime Ryan Shepard and I will most likely be chasing a lot together. So look for us and say hi.
I am going to be working on the 2012 Collage and putting that up ASAP.
Goals:
1. Blogging again.
2. Wearing a Backpack supplied with Mountain Dew
3. More Spontaneous while waiting for Storm Initiation
4. Posting at least one pic from the Storm of the Day on chase days
5. Meeting a new chaser every time I go out chasing.
6. Getting myself on Spotter Network
7. Chase with other friends
