Metro Atlanta
Working as a paralegal
Trying to get back to Louisiana. Took me 8 years.
I had 8 years of spending Fall weekends driving back and forth to Tiger Stadium and went to many away games since I was closer to most of the SEC.

Graduated HS in May, had my last summer of zero responsibility, started LSU in the fall.
One of the best years of my life.

Freshman in high school. Worked the summer as a lifeguard. Band camp. Chased after a girl who I was sure I was destined to be with.
Good times.

I was seventeen and scared shitless with what I was going to do with life. Graduated high school and left for college.
Trajectory? I had no idea. It stayed stagnant for a few years.

At 5 years old I got a brother.
Asked mother to take him back. I didn't want him.
Table was set for relationship we've had since.

Yes I know about Desert Storm and Desert Shield. But Saddam Hussein violated some no fly zone so Clinton deployed a brigade of heavy armor in 1996. We were combat loaded with service 120 mm main gun rounds waiting on orders from the Pentagon.
FYI, I deployed twice under Bill Clinton. Once to Kuwait for an invasion force that didn't happen and to Kosova and Bosnia in 1999.

That was kinda a forgotten theater to a lot of folks. Same with Somalia.

I was five, probably playing Nintendo and jumping out of the trees in our front yard. Did a lot of fishing in Myrtle Grove.
