I now am the proud owner of the ugliest photo of me ever. PFC Dammerung couldn't decide if he was going to smile or make the serious face. So now he looks like he's got something wrong in his gut.

Today's Run = 1m 12:51 2m total: 27:24 Very glad to see the overall time down to my lowest yet.

School doesn't disburse loans until monday. So no new apartment until then. Boo.

Shroomage needs to talk to Wulfa about her address next time she see's Wulfa on. Wulfa can explain.

School starts Jan 14th. Have I said that already? Prolly not. Anyways we're starting to get -really- excited. Next week we have all sorts of crazy things to get done.

I'm not in the military's arcane matrix yet so no drill this weekend. My first one should be next month. Not like its a real drill until basic... but still.

Oh...and looks like the Army is going to dress blues. The pictures I saw looks fairly nice.

Well, I think thats everything for today. Hope everyone had a Happy Christmas and New Years. Hope Babybarr isn't sick anymore.

Oh almost forgot... tomorrow is the College Football National Championship... ie: most important football game of the year. Who are you cheering for?

Just catching up on my blog reading after the holidays: Congratulations on expecting your second, and good luck with your pursuit of a commission in the military. You are definitely taking the smarter option by going down the officer track, imho, because of the better pay and benefits.

It's good that you have started running, because when you get to the point that the Army is making you run it will be much better if it's no big thing for you than if you're dying from the terrible new experience - I was in ROTC in college and the running was the worst part imho.

Good luck!

At least your photo isn't like my old driver's license photo. Looked like I was either half-asleep or stoned out of my mind.

Best of luck with your military career - it's actually a pretty smart move these days, with the economy being as bad as it is.

As far as college football goes, though... is it bad that I don't care? ^_^

College Football... hmm... Go Texas?

Fine fine... Go Whoever is Playing OU!

Babybar, unfortunately, has RSV. As a premature baby (granted, he is 2 1/2 now) who has asthma, we have to check for it. The doctor did not think he needed his yearly vaccine this year, and ... blam.

Fortunately, he is past the contagious stage and really can continue his normal activities. As long as he gets his breathing treatments (which we had started up on our own recently anyway) and it does not develop into pneumonia, he will be fine. Just a little cranky sometimes.

He also needs his tonsils out, just like his daddy did at his age. That is probably a month or so away, but is an outpatient procedure and is fairly low risk these days.

Thanks for asking!

The Cat is Out of the Bag

I wonder where that expression comes from? There is this fabulous book that can tell you, only I forgot the name of it. Next time I come across it I think I'm going to have to buy it. Anyway. I was going to wait. A long time. Maybe forever. I don't like people coming up and hugging me, smiling and saying congratulations, or asking me questions. But Damm was talking to his recruiter about insurance. And he mentioned something that he should've told the recruiter was non-repeatable, because 5 minutes later the recruiter told Damm's mother (I have no earthly idea why he's talking to her-I keep forgetting to ask). After that I had to tell my mother. We haven't told any extended family members because there are quite a few here celebrating Damm's mother's graduation and that would be the worst form of torture I can imagine. So yeah, I'm knocked up again :P And this time I'm getting the t-shirt. "It" is due August 11. I have not been to a doc...

There be too much history.

By
For the past couple of weeks Damm and I have been faithfully spending an hour each day working on our respective summer projects-he on his writing and me on Spanish and history. I had previously mentioned wanting to create some sort of series that I’d work on throughout the summer. I did a bit of brainstorming and decided that I should write essays on bits of fun and fascinating history. Then I started thinking up topic ideas and realized that I didn’t have enough time to randomly pick subjects, research them, and then write entertainingly. So I decided to pick one area of focus. It came down to either Modern Russia or the Civil War Era, since these are the two history courses I’ll be taking in the fall. I chose the Civil War. And even then I have not narrowed my focus enough. The essays one could write on the American Civil War … the possibilities are endless. And so I’m in the process of redefining what I will write/research. I’m in the midst of gathering info for a...
