Paraguay, Hey!

At this point I'm just being lazy with that review because I've already written it and it is sitting on my computer at work. My initial excuse was that I was waiting until I figured out how to take a screenshot in OS X. But I worked that out last night so no more excuses. I'll bring it home with me after work tonight and post it.


In a surprise announcement yesterday, at Guard School our DetCmdr told me I would be going TDY (Temporary Duty Assignment) to the US Embassy in Asunción, Paraguay! I'm leaving June 13th and I'll be there from anywhere to a minimum of 2 weeks up to a maximum of 1 month. I will be back July 15th at least, that much is guranteed but the span of my TDY there is not yet determined. This will throw some kinks into my plans on going home in July but I'm excited about getting to travel somewhere else. More to come on this as I find out.

I also ran today for the first time in almost a month. If you know me, you know I hate to run. The good ol' USMC kind of burned me out on it in Japan cause we ran so much...but I digress. I was surprised with myself, I ran a mile and a half in just under 7min30sec, did some pull ups and crunches, and did the run back in somewhere between 12-13 min. I will say this though, I can't do a pull up worth a shit any more and I really need to work on that before I leave for Paraguay. I see a lot of pull up pyramids in my future.

I think that review has become a myth at this point....like Big Foot or Chupacabra.. ;)

Ah Paraguay, which in Spanish means: "A whale's vagina".

600 points to Buck for the whale's vagina bit. I don't recall what that was from but I got a good chuckle out of that.
