Last week was just about as boring as I thought it was going to be. Wednesday morning started with a thunderstorm. And, of course, since I had to turn in all of my gear before I left Korea, I got soaked. (It figures that it doesn’t rain the whole time I’m on leave, but the first time I don’t have a choice whether, or not, to be outside, it pours.) Anyway, there’s a lot of Big Army BS. This isn’t any big surprise. But I can’t wait to actually get to work.
Thursday we had what the Replacement Center calls “The All Day Brief.” And it really was all day! Death by power point. I was about ready to hang myself, or shoot some one. Friday, I didn’t have anything to do, and just sat around waiting, because they wouldn’t let us do anything else.
And today, salvation. Sort of, I got my pinpoint orders. Well actually, they were the exact same ones I had before, just with a pretty little Air Assault stamp on them. Four days for them to put a stamp on them. You’ve got to be kidding me. At least my final destination has been narrowed to two companies. A line unit or the dreaded second level maintenance unit. Guess which one I want to go to. Bet you can’t get it.
The rest of this week is the real in processing, and I get to go to my unit next Monday. Just to tell them that two days after I get there, I need the day off for my daughter’s surgery. (Nothing serious.)
Sunday, I’m going to a Def Leppard concert in Nashville. (A Father’s Day gift.) Its been a very long time since I’ve seen them in a concert. I was only about 16, I think. (Yah, I know, like you really care about some washed up Eighties group.) As a matter of fact, they were my favorite group through high school, so I’m looking forward to it.
That’s all for now.
I’ll see ya’ll later.
