After a couple months of absolutely no electronics, automobiles, etc. I'm back. I have a great appreciation for a lot of things I took for granite before! I'm also engaged now to the most amazing woman in the world, and I'm for sure selling my Trans Am ( no April fools). I hope everyone is doing well and happy I get to frequent GRM again, I missed you guys!

Sounds like a good couple months you had DirtyBird. Were you working in a rock quarry or something?

thanks everyjuan!

And that's what I hear, that time flies by. First real day of tech school wasn't bad. A lot of the stuff I'll be learning, I already know from my experience working on cars which is awesome.

Congrats! It's a really good way of life. The military has been pretty good to me. What's your AFSC?

So how was boot? Welcome to the military BTW! Don't be afraid to ask questions here.

PS - Why are you selling the TA? Man that car is so badass, I'd never let it go. (Or let the girl go, either )

I'm in Cyber Surety, it's a 3D right now but they are restructuring comm again from what I hear.

And boot was easy. It was all about playing games with the MTI I was an element leader and had lots of fun with that. I miss the guys from my flight already, it was a really cool experience that I will always remember. The worst part was the first two weeks when you are like "WTF am I doing here?!?!" Especially when it's just a lot of hurrying up and waiting, hurrying up and waiting.
