I am now government property.

I completed MEPS last night. I passed My physical with flying colors, and the female doctor that checked my testicles tried to give me her number. I even got the job that I was hoping for, 25M, which is Illustration. This means that I am going to be trained by the military to draw and paint. Pretty cool ( Read more... )

I tried calling you today to see if you wanted to meet for coffee but the phone rang... and rang... and rang... no answering machine.

sorry, I forgot to tell you... I moved out of my apartment on the 1st, but I have been too busy to tell the phone or power company to cut me off...lol. I should probably tell my apartment managers that I moved out too, that might be a good idea. I have been chilling at DJ's for the time being. Give me me your cell number and I will call you tomorrow (sat) and we can hang out then. I can fill you in on all the details.

yeah, I am really nervous, 6 yrs (possibly 8) is a really long commitment. If i use my time wisely though, I could finish my enlistment and end up with a full 4 yr college degree through correspondent courses, or possibly even a masters degree. As long as I don't get lazy.

Thats cause we haven't. It kinda sucks, but now i have a bit of free time on my hands so there is no reason why we can't get a game night together over at Rick's. I miss you and C'dub'.

Plus i remember you saying something a long time ago about hooking me up with some quality chicks. heh heh.

An Airman walks into the men's restroom and uses the urinal next to an Army Sergeant. The Sergeant finishes, zips up, and heads for the door.

The Airman calls over his shoulder, "In the Air Force they teach us to wash our hands."

The Sergeant, without missing a step, replies, "In the Army they teach us not to piss on our hands."

Be sure to share this joke with your DS. You will be quick friends, I promise!

i was told that cracking jokes would get me in trouble, are you trying to set me up?

Get you in troule?? Naaahh...

BTW, beware the little clause in the contract that says they can change your MOS if it fits the needs of the military. Basically means they can change it whenever they want and you might still be a human bullet catcher.

Good for you! Change will be exciting, at least you get to draw! Responsible James...**sniff**...there's a tear in my eye...

responsible nothing ... giving up is not the same as being responsible, although, I guess if i was totally giving up , i would not have held out until I got the illustration job.
