soo, today was a pretty good day. i had to check the bank account to make sure i had enough for the trip and got a pleasant surprise that the army had also split my separation pay into two payments as well. so, i have plenty of money for the trip and currently getting the last few things in order. oh, and then my friends i stay with right now both ended up working late. so, i thought i'd attack the dinner subject myself. i attempted shepherd's pie for the first time ever and actually had very good results it was good as hell. See i'm just a mediocre cook, but if i stash up the skills for a while i can just throw them all into one dish with excellent results, haha
