Went to OnStar for the last time ever. Weird. I was expecting to get out there around 1:30 but I've got some kind of responsibility disease that made me stick around even after they'd took my badge and pager and everything, trying to make sure all the files that were needed were available. Sigh and ah well, its the last day so I guess I'm glad I did my best at it.
So within the next couple hours I'll be hitting the road. I report to the Training Ship at 1000 Sunday, and I'll be there for a couple weeks. I'm cancelling my cable modem and voip phone service, so if you want to get a hold of me, cell phone is the only way. And I'm not sure how good it will be either.
I may have Internet on and off while I'm there and if so I'll send out some updates, otherwise it will be a couple weeks.
Thanks everyone for the encouragement. I feel fantastic. Now if I could just get everything packed.
While you're at it, think some good thoughts for Chris and Sandra who are off for a tour in the sandbox in another week. Here's wishing its cooler than 100 and the insurgents decide to quit and go home. Safe home, guys, and thank you for your service.
BTW: With the last of my Sears credit I bought a digital camera so I can share some pictures. A bit of a switch since I've never been a "carrying a camera" guy, but I'll learn slowly.

Yeah, well don't lose it ala space camp.
