PQMWow, been a while since I wrote anything here. I guess that makes me a terrible blogger (?). Well, I just finished the Fleet Replacement Squadron (FRS) for the Cobra. Heading down the street to the Stingers, and looks like a deployment early next year. Headin over to The Stan. Gotta say that's gonna be an interesting little adventure. Not all that excited to go fight or kill folks, cause only a fucking moron would be, but at the same time, I'm ready to do something else than train in the Marine Corps. Been almost four years and that's all I've done since I got in. With that said, I am ready to actually prove myself in my chosen field, you know, to be really really good at my job and have those I work with know it. That's the part I'm excited about. I do not relish the whole being away from family, and native country part for seven months, but *shrug, what ya gonna do?

But before all that I get to take two weeks of leave (STARTING TODAY!) and go back to everyone's favorite republic on the Gulf coast. I think some fishing is in order. It will also be the first time I've seen my brother since he returned from Afghanistan himself, and since he got out. Hide the liquor and your daughters Houston.
