TGIF
Week from hell. So much work to do.
Kicking some serious ass though.

Got a job offer from the Department of Homeland Security. Gotten to be pretty chummy with a high ranking Agent in their criminal investigation unit who says they really need some creative, "outside the box" kind of people working for them. Said I was of the perfect age and disposition. Only catch is that I'd have to complete a 6 year run in the Secret Service first which includes 2 years protecting and serving in Washington DC. Would be top notch training and a pretty crazy government job... The Agent said he'd take me under his wing and give me all my recommendations all the way through to the top so I could come work for DHS after I finished, and I'd be eligable to move on to FBI, CIA or any other number of departments with three letter initials by the time I was 36-40. Pretty cool offer. Doubt I'll ever take him up on it, but it's fun to fantasize about.

Anyways here's a picture I made. Its actually a picture of me where you can see my face! I took it on my lunch break today. Tried to smile but I can't manage too much. At least I can see how big my arms are getting now. Freaking sweet.

Mew. I have been sufficiently scolded. :-(

Yeah. Having not seen you since shortly after your 18th birthday (ye gods... 8 years ago), I don't have any frame of reference for "grown-up Brenton" (any more, I suppose, than you would for "grown-up" 'Lissa. So I still think of you at that age.

If it's any consolation, I do it with most of my friends.

And, um, from the old days... I still talk to Jon, and Danzig. That's about it.
