Here We Go

Today I classed up at OCS. Gone are the days of leisurely meals, reading, and waiting for life to pick up the pace. It's hurry, hurry, threat, threat now. But I'm grateful to be in motion. When I arrived I couldn't see doing this without Kinney. Then she left. So I built a little bit of new community. But we didn't all class up together. I fear some of the more remarkable candidates have been overlooked for people who will not do well here. And I feel like the instinct to take care of soldiers makes me want to fix everything for the friends I left behind. But back to the good--God pulled a rabbit out of his hat and gave me a 287 on my AFPT test today. My friend Sproul is my roommate. I now own a velcro-on ascot, which looks ridiculous but connotes progress. Forward march.
