Yes, I’m still alive

Well, I’m just posting to let everyone who was wondering know that I’m still alive, after 9 weeks of Officer Candidate School. I now have 5 weeks left, although only the next week is going to be hair-raising. The week after will be cake, and the last 3 weeks will be in the Candidate Officer phase, where my class will be responsible for the orderly functioning of Officer Candidate School.

I would share some stories of my time here, but I don’t have the time. I could probably fill quite a few pages with tales of my experiences here, and I don’t feel the particular need to spam everyone I know with a 20-page blog entry. One day I’ll probably just write up everything on a web page and post a link to it.

To those who have been using my software, I apologize for being unavailable, and for forgetting to leave a message on my web site informing people that I’m absent.

I’m not sure how long it will be until I can be fully reintegrated into the KDE development workflow after my commissioning. Obviously the Navy would have to take precedence over programming. I’ll have about a year of school after my commissioning, although from my understanding I’ll be very busy.

Anyways, I just wanted to say Hi to all of my fellow programmers, and my family, and let everyone know that I’m still alive. Good luck to everyone in their endeavors for the next month or so, I know I’ll need some luck for mine. ;-)
