I am here... I am just REALLY busy with work. Some of you might remember that my wartime tasking is tied to patient decontamination in environments where WMD's could affect our troops. We continuously train and re-train and these past two months have been prep time before our window opens in January and ends in March. The chance to deploy at a moments notice falls in that time frame.
Also our base is preparing for an ORI (Operational Readiness Inspection) and we are doing exercises out the wazoo. It the biggest readiness inspection a base can go through and happens once every two years. Suffice it to say... I am busy.
Once all this crap goes from a rolling boil to just simmer, I'll be back more frequently.
