CQ

There is a lovely duty throughout the military which i currently have the pleasure of working.  It is called CQ.  Which means charge of quarters.  Basically someone has to watch the front desk make sure no one is coming into the dorm that shouldn't be.  I have CQ tonight from 12am to 8am.  So this is me with my trusty cup of coffee. There are a couple things that i find entertain me for 8hrs of sitting at a desk.  Between watching movies and reading I have taken up competitive pinball.  Not real pinball but the pinball that every has on their pc.  I am currently in a quest to best the top score of 4,700,000.  I am sitting in second with a score of 4,400,000 and some change.  Im pretty confident on my chances to up that by 8am.  Until then wish me luck.  I am coming home on the 12th through the 17th.  Can't wait to c everyone.

Playing the Victim

The current team in training needed a victim for there wilderness first aid class so I volunteered.  I died 18 times this morning.  It was rough.  I was a bloody mess as you can see.

Down Town





























So we went downtown last night.  It was my first real time being able to explore the city alittle bit.  Friday we moved my friend and his wife into their apartment and they told us that we could stay down there on saturday night.  We had alot of fun.  Spokane has a giant park right in the center of town so we walked around there for awhile. Also went to a couple different bars and restaurants throughout the night.  There is a coffee shop on every corner and that makes me happy.  We went to one that had live music (pic) so that was fun.  Also if you can't tell that is a picture of me riding a mechanical bull.  I might have a future in bull riding?  But, during my bull riding experience i ripped my pants in an unfortunate spot and didn't realize it until the next morning.  So I was walking around with a giant hole in my pants all night.  After that we went back to my friends and just hung out on his porch.  His apartment looks over the city.  This morning we walked to get some coffee and breakfast.  Spokane is nice because everything is within walking distance.  Alright dinner time. ciao
