Sir, Trainee Rusk reports as ordered!

so! just called patty to rsvp, and realized i should probably post an update over hyar.

i've turned in my application for the air force, so the next step is to take the armed services vocational aptitude battery. i can do that any monday or thursday at fort carson, but my advanced algebra, trigonometry, etc. are... shall we say, less than graceful right now. so i'm going to brush up on that real quicklike, and hopefully get that test out of the way within the next 30 days. once i do that, i have to go to denver for 2 days for a physical, and while i'm there, if i meet their requirements, i'll sign a contract and take an oath, and will henceforth be in the delayed enlistment program. after that, the recruiter tells me i'll probably start basic training in september or october, and right before i leave, i go back to denver for another physical.

i have to gain about 15 pounds to meet the minimum weight requirement for my height, so it looks like i'll be investing in some big-guy-muscle-man powder to build muscle mass. and i'm going to have to start working out, because otherwise it won't be muscle mass, and i have to keep my body fat under 20%. and that's about all i know!

see you guys at patty's on independence day, i hope!
