It occurs to me that the Ikea conference table I purchased to use as a computer desk is larger than the living space I had in Afghanistan all last year. What a world.

We have these post-deployment readjustments.

While I was in Afghanistan for a year, all of my penguin-shaped ice cubes sublimated and now they’re gone.

I’ll get over it. I can make more. But they don’t mention this sort of thing during the re-integration briefings.

So, I’m about to move again. Of course I’m about to move again. It’s been a year since the last time.

And yes, it still annoys the shit out of me that after all this time I still cannot change my current APO address to a different APO address on Citibank’s web portal; there’s no correct menu choice for the state. I have to call.

I wonder how many bank accounts locked out my web access due to lack of activity? I’ve already identified one.

Wait, no we don’t.

Interest rates are low enough that I probably should not have paid them all off, but I like being entirely debt free just as a matter of general principle.

P.S. Fight on!
