The Future, or something like it.

I've been really quite lately on the livejournal front. Its not from me just being apathetic towards posting. It's mainly because there's quite a bit going on in my life that has to do with my future.

As in I may kinda sorta maybe possibly be joining the military.

Had the initial talk today, things look good but if all goes according to plan (as tentative a plan as I have) I won't be joining till next year. But... still, it's just all kinda hitting me now.

Yikes. *g* This should be an interesting ride.

Wow. Holy cow! This is kinda, um, huge.

I'd love to know more about it, if you feel like sharing...

Yeah... it is big. I'm still trying to process everything.

I have no problems sharing. Went in today to talk to the recruiter about applying for OCS (Officer Candidacy School) in the Air Force and so far things look good for me to apply. If I can't get in this way, I'll probably end up going enlisted and applying later on. But yeah... military service... here I come.

I've been planning on it since January but didn't want to say anything till I found out if I actually fit the qualifications (which I do)

eek! :)

Woohoo. We may speak about it now. *grins

You know I'm all for it. And good choice on which to choose. Gonna miss your butt when you leave, though.

...hooker!

Yes, the restriction has been lifted, as I figure I will need a place to weep and vent in the upcoming months

About bloody time. I couldn't figure out why you were waiting.

*g* Didn't want to get my hopes up in case it all came to nothing (at least now I can at least apply)

Oh, honey. You knew you'd work it, or you wouldn't have tried.

Thanks. I do believe I'm gonna need it!
