Holy smokes its been a while

In my defense it has been a crazy year. Promotion, new responsibilities, gettin hitched...

Well in case anybody still checks this old thing and don't already know...

No we are not pregnant, sheesh.

But I did re-enlist in the Marines and we have orders to go back to 29 Palms, CA in October.

I am very excited to get back to a real base and a real Unit. I am looking forward to never doing a Marine Funeral again(hopefully). It was a great honor but it really has worn on me.

No more Drill weekends, no more reservists!!! No offense brothers of mine.

No more filling FIVE billets, when I should have only one! No more trying to spread my time between driving my giant forklift, managing the Publications, Modifications, Supply management and Float account, missing my weekends doing Color Guards, while trying to become PME complete, upgrade my MCMAP belt and somehow...do my ACTUAL job.

Sorry if none of that makes sense, it was mostly a rant about how slammed I have been.

Oh ya and did I mention that I am a newlywed. Some time with my hot new wife would be nice:)

All in all It has been a great year. Nothing really good to complain about, I really do love my job!

So heres hoping that this little bit of inspiration keeps me going on my terrible blogging streak.

Oh and did I mention that the NFL kicked off the opening game today...Brees and Farve are both looking great!
