So those are the many names by which I am known. McLovin’ and JDAM are fighting it out right now, but McLovin’ seems to be edging out. Not sure if that’s good or bad… haven’t seen the movie.

Otherwise, things are going well now. I think I’m beginning to get the hang of the platoon leading. There’s been some administrative issues coming up that I’ve been handling, I’ve gotten out and worked on the trucks with the Soldiers, and I just feel more comfortble in my position. I do still wish I had more experience, but I’m picking things up… 13th Warrior style.

Yeah, I haven’t so much kept up with the working out. Things have gotten busier, I do like being skinny and it’s just not the thing that I do. I’ve never really liked going to the gym to look better. Now to stay healthy, yeah… but the emphasis always seems to be about looking better. I don’t know, I’m pretty damn sexy as I am. I don’t think the world is ready for me to step it up another level.

But I kid, I kid! On the other hand, I do try to incorporate working out in my life. Such as picking a demanding job like the Army, or sit-ups when I play video games. I think it’s the little things that matter anyways.

I used to try and learn some Arabic over here from Rosetta Stone. It’s kind of an annoying method to learn by though. The problem is that it’s a lot of repitive and redundant practice. My French was pretty good though. Need to try out my Japanese. That might be my problem though. Trying to learn some 3 languages at once. Need to fully learn one before moving on to the next.
