Well, it is official: I am in the US Navy's Delayed Entry Program.

And I have a month left in the Navy!

What rate/program did you get, if you don't mind me asking?

 

[S.ilvio]

I ate a steak today... All glory to God.

Did someone mention steak...

Well done EC...

Salmon steak?

I love those.

Good evening tavernators. Slow down on those steaks, or you will have to speed up on your exercises.

I ran 4.5 miles the other night and I do TKD twice a week. My body needs the protein.

You ran 6km? Well, yes....but how fast? That's the important thing. My wife does kendo on me with a broom stick every day, and it's not helping all that much!

Thank you everybody!

And I have a month left in the Navy!

Submarine Electronics/Computer Field (SECF) and I ship out in April.

But, if I take the DLAB (foreign language test) than that could very well change.

I'm sure that you're recruiter will be filling you in on all that you need to know, but as a recruiter myself, here's my 2 cents:

The Sailor's Creed, 11 General Orders, and Rank/Recognition are the three most important things to learn first, in that order. And learn them as soon as you can. If you think you can put it off and learn it last minute, you'll learn the hard way that you can't. If you aren't a very good runner, start now. Technically, all PT is voluntary and the recruiters can't make you PT with them, but take advantage of the opportunities and do it voluntarily. If you can learn all the stuff in your DEP book and are able to do the push-ups, sit-ups and the run, boot camp will be a breeze. The sooner you're able to do all that, the more deeply it will be ingrained in your brain before you ship out, and the better off you'll be.

When most people refer to steak, without a low tide qualifier, they are referring to cow!!

Dooley noted!

Like the recruiters said, "You might be in the Navy now, but we need to sailorize you!"

Home from Dormition Vespers/Lamentations, and making up (more or less) with Andrew. Life is good and I am REALLY tired now! Bed for me, ant it's 11:39pm - that's VERY early for this nightowl.

I don't run fast, about 10 minutes/mile. Just got back from a six mile run, was nice.

 

[neon_knights]

I probably couldnt run 6 miles if a lion was chasing me.

Awesome! I can't run a whole mile yet. But I'm working on it!

 

[Photini]

Ok, I tried steaming some kale with a bit of garlic tonight. It was nasty. I don't think I'm going to be a kale lover. Unless anyone has some tips on tasty ways to make it.

Otherwise... into the smoothie it goes.

 

[nutroll]

If you fry up some bacon, some onion and some garlic in a little butter, add the kale and cook it down and then throw in some cream and parmigiano reggiano, it is quite lovely.

 

[Philothei]

Make spinach instead
