Red Dawn

It's been a whirlwind of activity since I got back to Michigan, especially this week now that the Labor Day weekend's over.

- Processed into unit, will participate in 9/11 memorial on Friday, drill this weekend

- Found out I'm most likely going downrange next year

- Got fitted for a costume to be an extra in the remake of Red Dawn

- Started working at my old job again

I'm intrigued by the possibilities of going downrange, but I simultaneously fret about the danger. Even though I'm "only" 23 it seems like there's a huge time crunch to try to get things done before I go overseas. I don't think I'm fretting as much as realizing how valuable time can be.
