the 90 day funk

so the past week or so (basically since MAJ Kue left) has been kinda crazy. people have been super touchy and seem to just be in sour moods. i'm pretty relaxed about my job here. it's not that tough, just a lot of follow-up, tracking and now that i am a sergeant, paperwork. hooray.
i don't even want to get into what i'm going to be responsible for as a section leader...

our last day with MAJ Kue

moving on.

so i'm a sergeant now. wooooooooo! i feel like it is a long time coming and there is a lot to be said of the MP's now that i have the experience of being with another unit. while i will always love the MPs and without getting too complicated about it, they're jerks.
i know i have mentioned going officer if i end up staying in, but really, when i think about the kind of person i am, i am a NCO. it's hard to explain the differences and the attitudes (as i've mentioned before as well) but i guess you could kinda say i'm like the muscle. i get the task and i make it happen. there's planning and administrative stuff that fall into my realm but NCO's are more hands on than officers and i think that is my style.

lincoln chafee flew in for a meet and greet and was standing next to my commander when i was promoted. it was kinda small and i chose to have one of my senior NCO's who has been providing me with guidance do the actual pinning. (pictures to follow if i ever get the memory card).

everyone seems pleased for me and think me deserving which makes me happy. i honestly don't think i need to act any different than i was before except now i have a little bit of power behind me.

work has been super busy also and i haven't touched my ukulele since monday. shaaaaaaaaame on me!
hopefully i'll have some time tomorrow but i know when brandon comes by sunday he is going to give me a frowny face.

something crazy like 46 days until i'm home on leave, and about 56 until i'm partying it up in providence.
i can't wait to mush my wuuuuuuub.

camels (they like to be petted.)
