Eeeep!

Oh, the horror! Today at end-of-day formation my Platoon Sgt mentioned my name in conjuction with an evil, aweful four letter word. (Shudders, looks around)
PLDC!
Aggghhh!
For those of you who don't know, PLDC is the Sgt training school. It's a month long, and you have to have basically EVERYTHING you were issued with you when you go. If you don't have it, you have to buy it.
*Sigh*
It could be worse. I just don't think I would make a very good Sgt, and am quite happy with just being a Specialist. But it will look good on my resume when I get out, I guess.
Oh, well. I don't think I'll have to go, as I'll still be on profile for my knee. Of course, if they give me a permanant profile, then I'll be going in January. Ick.
Now for some good news. One of my friends just found out today that she is pregnant! She's been trying to have kids for five years, so we're all really happy for her. I think she's going to be a great mom, and I'm so glad she is finally getting her dream.
Well, that's all for now. Talk to you all later.

I was trying really hard to get PLDC before I left Bragg, but it just wasn't in the cards. I won't be able to get it until after DLI now, a good year and a half after I got my stripes and well past the four year mark, when I become eligible for the E-6 board. Blah.

Well done for your friend
