What the...

Exactly how I feel today. Last friday, I had to take one of my soldiers to Fort Huachuca to the medical facility to get him evaluated. We had to reschedule for Oct 10-11. This is to get him discharged and start getting disability for PTSD from being in Iraq. And to top it off, yesterday I received in the mail a subpoena for Oct 17th. I have to testify against this guy I got in a fight with. Of course the previous Sunday will be my second child's birthday and the following weekend I have drill, which means I have to work four 10 hour shifts at work....ugh. So things are not looking great for me next month. At least I have December to look forward to. 2 weeks off work to go to Germany for training. Until next time.

Sober

Yup, that is how it has been since Labor Day. Guess Reverand Mother finally got her prayers answered. After being home since Dec 05 and drinking nearly every day since, it is time to stop. That's all I have to say about that. Been working a lot lately, still trying to get the management pay. Yeah, I am considered a manager, but still hourly and not salary. Hopefully soon. Took the family to see Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer on Saturday. It was pretty good if you are into those kind of movies. Of course, as with all other comic book movies, it steers away from some "facts".

As far as military side, I am an E-6, Staff Sergeant. Right now I am focusing on becoming a warrant officer. All I have to do now is finish a 2 1/2 week course and then take an English CLEP test and then I can apply. Once approved, I will be nondeployable for 2 years. Also a 10K sign on bonus. So, hopefully I can accomplish all this within the next 6 months.

That be about it for now.
