Military life is not always convenient for what we really want on a day-to-day basis. Whether it's four years or 20 years that you put off our heart's desire, be it hobbies or vacation or companions, what are you waiting to jump on at first chance?
I got pets, because I was never in a pet-friendly housing arrangement. My kitten is the sweetest tornado and my hedgehog hates me: Life is good.

Bear Claws. I ended almost a decade of privation. To continue to make ABCP standards, I lived a miserable existence of highly selective eating with some rare exceptions, periodically enduring fasts. At the end that was Backed up with about 2 hours of PT everyday, PT before PT started. I was always tired, sore, and miserable, never seemed to get me where I was trying to go, just left me hovering near the edge of pass/fail.

I grew out my goatee, got a beer gut, and tried to grow out my hair, but long hair sucks, and I live in Florida now, so I still shave my head. I basically had a six month vacation where I collected unemployment, slept in every day, stayed up late every night, and haven't run a single step since 2009.
