so whats been going on in my world? not too much.... we have a new commander and i must say that i like the way this guy works... the way he is running his operation gives me the opportunity to have one long mission every two days and in between allows me to kinda chill and relax the next. however, i'm now being stuck to another platoon because they've got two people who have gone on leave. this would not be such a problem if these guys weren't such shitheads... they think they are the best when they are really the worst... they do everything for the TC (tank commander) so all he has to do is get on the tank and plug the tc's hatch... they kiss his ass the whole mission, and then at the end of the mission, he hops his happy ass off the tank and goes and sits in the shade until the maintanence is done (about 1 1/2 worth of work) and then comes over, points out your mistakes and tells you to fix them and then leave. i don't even fall under this guy, but thats alright too i guess... its only for a little while longer, i hope... on a good note, after this mission the gunner and TC want me as their driver because of how smooth of a ride i gave them. (too bad for them, if i had a choice that would be the LAST tank i was EVER on...)
moving on... the gym is paying off more and more each day, i'm not so little anymore and i feel great. i come home in june so my goal is to gain about 5 more pounds at least ( i think i can gain more than that...) i miss seeing everyone and talking to them, the internet has been jacked up a good deal here until recently so i hope to hear from everyone again soon... the first couple of days in june is when i'm expected to come home, so keep your fingers crossed.... oh and if i've said something about coming to see you, all those plans are still on 100%.
well i'm gonna get a quick nap before i go eat... drop me a comment or e-mail and let me know whats going on in your world.... later world, the great thamison
