All is quiet

I've been really busy lately but I've been home. It is the "calm before the storm." Next week I will be at Ft. Stewart near Savannah and the week after that I will spend at Ft. Leavenworth, KS. I look forward to the training and knowledge. It's nice to watch the battle-focused training step up as mobilization nears. It's harder and harder to find some quiet time.

Yesterday we talked about irony and how to explain it to 8th grade students. Today I ran across several ironic situations. A guy that is unemployed but has no time, a guy that gets a raise but has no desk or computer, a fuel pump for a 79 corvette is over 10 times cheaper than for a Nissan Exterra. Weird

I'm looking forward to a lunch with Dusty tomorrow. No one is more excited about discussing God's word. There's a range 10 minutes away from my new job too. Dusty and I might be hanging out a lot soon. 

I'm also ready to see Mom and Dad.

Me, too... Looks like the fuel pump is available cheaper from a big online NIssan dealership. We should have a fuel pump installation party this weekend...
