So, most of you on here already know I'm joining the Army.

For those who missed the memo - there you go.
No, not the Repo Army - I've been part of that since January. And part of Midnight Surgeons since May.

The US Army.

Yes, I've got good reasons for it.
No, I'm not going to post them here.

If you're really curious, buy me a drink sometime, and we'll talk about it. ^.^

But regardless, took the ASVAB a few weeks ago, and just got my results - 97%.
On a 3 hour, 9 part exam.
Where the entry requirement is 31%.

Damn.

^.^

Unfortunately, I did so well that the ASVAB can't tell me what I'll be good at.
There goes the aptitude part of it. :-p

So now I'm on the weight-loss and fitness program the recruitment center has, to make sure I'll get where I need to go. Tuesdays and Thursdays now suck as much as humanly possible; Wednesdays and Fridays suck residually; and the weekends are still my favorite time of the month, since I've been spending it with two very sweet individuals. :-)







Kyleen's at her grandmother's until September 1st - I'm hoping to get a chance to visit her before that, since I miss her a lot, but I also need to keep up on things like bills, and groceries. :-p Yay, balancing priorities! *grr*



So far, the tentative ship out date is October 1st - I highly doubt that's my precise ship date, but at least it's something to aim for. They'll let me know the precise date closer to it, and all I can do is stay calm and train for it. *slightly anxious grin*

So, y'all have me until my birthday - in theory. Sept 29th.
Who wants to hang out?
