long weekend. spent thursday afternoon until earlier this evening up at Ft. Hood for drill. Spent the first day doing a lot of patrolling and jumping in and out of the back of a HMMV. then did some urban operations and demo work the rest of the weekend. fun stuff but tiring. this won't make much sense to anyone non-military but now that we've lost our boots to go augment a deploying battalion, my platoon (of which I am a squad leader) is now down to a total of 7 people including myself. I guess it makes my job pretty easy.
haven't updated in a while so I'm sure I'm leaving all kinds of stuff out. saw some really good movies last week, but I'm too tired to really do a write up. I think I have tomorrow off of work. the weather is really nice so the heating/air conditioning thing is a bit slow, and will be for the three weeks of Texas Springtime.
hopefully going to get out and actually see (and hear) some of SXSW this year. should at least get to hang out with some SG folkses on Tuesday and gonna try to get over to lil_tuff'y's poster art thing.
anyhow. I'm beat.
