Sorry! I've been away for a long time, I know. I've been out in the field (medical support for a armored battalion, sleeping through tank fire is WOO), and I really haven't had much to say, besides.
They still haven't changed my profile picture. What do they want from me? ANYTHING would be better than the one I have. Please, guys. :[
I went to a day spa today. I know! I'm not the kind of person you'd think would do that. But oh. I smell so good, tastefully cinnamon-y. I had a sugar-salt body scrub, bikini wax (lolz), manicure and pedicure, and a Deep Pore Facial. Let me tell you what - "Deep Pore Facial" isn't about magical creams that dissolve your blackheads. It's a nice blonde woman with a fucking metal stick with a tiny O-ring on the end of it, gouging it into your face. The nice thing is, some of the nerves in my face seem to be dead from my dark, hideous past as "Kid With Bad Acne", so it wasn't as painful as it could have been. Unfortunately, I do have blackheads in almost every pore in my face (EW EW EW EW FUCK EW), so she admittedly couldn't get to them all. However, I've scheduled an appointment for microdermabrasion (!), where she will also push more of those suckers out of my skin for a reduced price. Anything to lower the ridiculous amount of maintenance required to just keep my skin looking normal, especially not nice.
I need to find some decent photographers in the Columbus/Atlanta area.

I did some business down that way with the last company I worked for. I built a GPS tracker for the RTB. It fit in a standard ammo pouch and let them track the trainees on the land-nav course.
Making the adjustment from Civ to basic to AIT to operational unit can really throw you for a loop. Slinging boxes while wearing ACUs in the heat is enough to bring anybody down. The only trick I know is to just roll with it. Nobody is having much fun doing that stuff so you just have to roll with it and find something humorous about it.
Over time you'll find the way to detach your brain from whatever BS-seeming task they come up with. Its not a perfect method, but it makes things easier to manage.
