Signing My Life Away

Well, today I did the unthinkable. After all the criticism I gave my friends in high school for joining the military, I just signed my own life over to uncle sam. I'm currently signed up for the av rating: aviation electronics. This means I will be working on the high-tech equipment in the cockpit. I'm not scheduled to leave for basic training until February 2006. This isn't really the rating I was hoping for, so I may be looking to change. We'll see what the future brings.
