Mandatory Blog

Dear reader,
This is a mandatory entry, mandated by Joe Mandinton. Here's the news:
Thursday and Friday I celebrated the Marines' birthday. Friday night I got lit. Saturday and Sunday I hung out with the wife and did some shopping and whatnot. Monday I had work off as well and went bowling with a friend named Apa.
Since this is day two of writing this blog, I'll extend my list of activities. First off, I'm sorry for letting you down, Joe.
Yesterday morning I went surfing. The water was very rough and choppy, which made paddling and balance difficult. The water has cooled off in the last month, and wetsuits are a must. I'm glad I went though because something about a morning surf sesh sets me right for the rest of the day.
This morning we went to the gas chamber for annual training. Something about getting gassed first thing in the morning outright sucks. Maybe it's the burning sensation in the eyes and mucous membranes and such. That said, here's my thoughts on future activities ...
This weekend is going to be awesome. no plans yet, but maybe some surf or skate and some chill. Maybe some guitar. Who knows? Stay in touch all y'all, and don't be 'fraid to call.
Andy
