"Is this thing on?"

A buddy and I just got back from doing some serious work tonight at a seafood restaurant in Baltimore, and I had a few minutes, so I wanted to get this thing kicked off. (By the way, check out http://gandmrestaurant.com/, recommend the seafood platter cause its just not a Baltimore trip without getting some crabs in your life.) Since a fair amount of people requested a way to stay updated on my deployed life, I decided to start up a blog to keep y'all in the know. Expect an inordinate amount of updates on my mustache (pronounce moo-sta-shey), food (especially the free soft serve), and other equally important subjects. Also, I'll have an address coming soon, so if you really want to feel patriotic, care packages are much loved and appreciated. And I've been told that I'll have access to most modern day luxuries, so if you're a skyper, e-mailer, or facebooker, I can probably be reached on all 3. My skype name is Dodgerfan5000 so get signed up/in and we'll stay in touch. I'm also taking good music recommendations for this trip. I'm currently on a Country kick on Spotify, so new material is appreciated. With that being said, I gotta catch some sleep cause the traveling for the next couple days won't be conducive to it. Time to tie a bow on it and put it to bed.
