Arrival to Pensacola
Happy New Years!
I have arrived at NAS Pensacola for 8 months of strenuous traning in all matters avionics. This should be fun!
Pensacola, for those that do not know, is also the home of the U.S. Navy’s BlueAngels
flight demonstration team! Hoo Ya! These guys are the cream of the crop when it comes to high flying shenanigans! One day I would like to take a demo ride with them, that would be pretty damn cool.
Our new house is decent as far as military quarters go. It is only a 950 sq.ft. townhouse but it is livable and has a decent yard for the beagles to run around in. I was quite unsurprised to find that a bunch of our household goods got mishandled and broken by the movers.*sigh* Actually the guys on the packing end are the ones responsible, they were so unorganized and horrible! I had to tell these guys how to pack a darn box, and just WHY it isn’t a good idea to pack weights ON TOP OF A COMPUTER! ugh… BUT.. Thank god for moving insurance, we should be getting a nice $2,000 check from the moving company to replace the damaged furniture.
I am due to start school this coming week. I am both excited and full of dread at the prospect of having to dredge up every last bit of algebra knowledge that I can remember from highschool. (15 years ago!) If it is anything like when I went to “A” school, we should be cruising through the math pretty fast. I just hope I can keep up.
Well that’s all for now.. Take care
