Time waster

As one sits at his computer and attempts to write a blog to update the world (or maybe just the three people who read his blog,) thoughts take their toll on his young mind. So much to do, so little time. In a few weeks I will turn the milestone, and become 21. The issue here is that I will be turning 21 in a dry country where you are ordered by the military not to drink. Dry counties are cool, just drive across county line. But dry countries? What the hell is wrong with you guys??? Next up we have the $900 to pull four teeth bill coming up. It is one of those things were you just have to grin and bear it. You don't want to do it, but you know sooner or later you are going to have to, so just get it out of the way... I received a phone call the other day telling me I needed to do paperwork that was due five days ago, so I have been busting my ass trying to get that done. Tracking these people down and getting the information from them is not an easy task. Next, I have good news, and that is the fact that I am short timed. That is an army term meaning that I am about to GTFOH, which is another army term that I will translate on a case by case basis upon request. A ballpark figure is something around three months, which is a relatively short time, considering I have been overseas for 15 months now, and on active duty orders for over 18, I shall be excited to come home. I have submitted an active duty packet and hope that gets approved. If it is, I shall be off again as soon as I come home. Hopefully they will give me a little down time before I deploy again, but we all know it is part of the job... This was really a rant session and not anything of substance, and I apologize for making you waste your time and reading it. Until next time...
