Did ya miss me?

Well, I've been back for a week, just haven't posted. So here it goes.

The drive down was pretty good. When I got there though someone wasn't around because she thought that a car full of females could get some place on time. That's just crazy talk. It probably didn't help that I got there an hour ahead of schedule. I went to the coast a couple of days while she was in class and got some pics of things. I got a few with the regular camera and a few with the digital. I didn't get too many, just felt quite a bit like a tourist.

We did quite a bit while we where there. We made it to Pensacola cause she likes the beach. It was neat, her laying in the sun, me sitting there in my jeans and tee shirt. On the way back the next day I wanted some good 'ole sea food so I stopped at a place. Turns out it was a fish market and they didn't cook. Too bad too, because they had some good looking stuff.

We toured Mobile, Ala. a couple of times. It's a neat place too. It's a pretty big town.

One night we went to a casino because she "felt lucky." Lucky her didn't do much in the slot machines. I didn't do much with those either. I did get the urge to play that there roulette table. It was good stuff. I walked out with almost four times the amount of money I used to play that night. I've decided that that's what I'm going to do when I get out or retire. Just go and play roulette. It's not that hard. Probably not, but it was nice to use that money for hotel room bills the last few days we were there.

We also took a couple of days to just sit and relax. That was pretty nice after a week of constantly doing things.

There was also a game of Trivial Pursuit Totally 80s. A piece of advice, if you are going to get a trivia game based on decades, make sure you where actually old enough to remember the decade. I won, but it took a bit longer than it should have probably.

Before I left I got the call from someone at some Air Force command. They wanted to know if I was on any profiles and the progress of my five level, which I now have I guess. It's crazy and I don't like the idea but o well. I got another call this week asking for my email and work number so that they could send me information on the training next month. So it looks like I'm for sure going to the sandlot some where. I haven't been hard tasked through the squadron yet though. The worst thing about it is that January is so far away. I would rather have a short notice to go than them telling me four months out. I'm just going to stress out not knowing things and wondering. So far nobody has answers, we hired a unit deployment manager, that's right we hired a civilian to do the job of a GI. Way to save money Air Force, guess the Guard has more money than it needs. Our unit mobility trainer whatever had to leave quick and the new one has to sort out the other's mess. Why is it I seem to get the most jacked up units? Can't wait to get to that "real" Air Force base I keep hearing about.
