So, it's a new year, and plans are in the works. Better things for 2011? Possibly... Back in the Army, after a 7 year hiatus, in just under a week. Get this though; Have to go back through the ENTIRE basic/AIT thing (for me it's actually OUSUT, as I'm a CAV Scout) for 17 straight weeks of thrills, chills, fun and excitement! Why am I putting myself through this kind of hell? Because my civilian life is going absolutely nowhere, be it fast or slow! I'm 35 now, turning 36 while in training for extra added fun, and figured that I might actually live long enough to need something resembing a retirement. Crazy, right? Working odd jobs with no sign of a "carreer" in sight, no motivation to go back to college [unless it's for the hot girls and parties], and living pay check to pay check has had me feeling down for quite awhile now. My friends who are still in say it's changed dramatically, but whatever, I'll just have to see for myself. A new adventure is coming up, and I'm ready for that... I mean, how bad could it be? LMFAO! Did I just curse myself asking THAT?!?!
