I've finally started this. I've planned on creating a blog for ages now, but now is the time. I'm currently still at Fort Bragg with 327th SIG, but I'm moving out in a few weeks to New Hampshire with my new room mate, I'll report how that goes as it unfolds. A long and strenuous process....out-processing is turning out to be. Piles of paperwork which will surely be lost, misplaced, discarded and/or neglected. So making about 5 copies of each is probably a safe bet.

As another rediculous day of nothing comes to close, I sit at my trusty iBook and juggle paperwork, movement prep, lifting and training on the mountain bike. Today will surely be gym time. I was just watching an "Over-There" re-run on FX, a very good look into Army/Soldier life while deployed to Iraq, the yelling, the stress, family problems and things are very real. Even though I wouldn't wish Iraq on my worst enemy (that's actually debatable), I can't help having a very acute nostalgia for time to bond with my friends and fellow Soldiers, with extreme emphasis on "acute". I learned everything about my friends' distant cousin's car accident, to things I don't think another soul should ever hear about. But all the same, it was a memorable experience to learn about different backgrounds and cultures far different then my own sheltered up-bringing.

Back to the present, I'm very excited about my move, in many aspects ;-). We're going to have a house warming party as soon as we're properly established. Time for the gym, plus my wrist is killing me (carpal tunnel I swear).
