True Confessions

Hello fellow Panthers! I only have time for a quick note right now, but I wanted to say that I have been lurking this blog ever since I got the email that said we are approaching our 20th reunion. Say it isn't so! We are still so young!
Anyway, as I read everyones awesome letters to the class, I realized that there were so many people that touched my life during that wonderful time. I have so many great memories, and I can't wait to reconnect with my old friends!
I was stationed overseas in the army during our 10 year reunion, so I can't wait for this one! Since I mentioned that I was in the army, I guess I should fill you guys in on what I am up to now -- I joined the army as a Military Intelligence linguist in 1992 because being the Assistant Produce Manager at the Delchamps on Brownswitch Road while trying to go to college was going nowhere.
The army sent me to Monterrey California to learn Arabic. California was great, butArabic class was really tough. After graduation, and after a brief stint in the 24th Infantry Division in Georgia, I found myself attached to the NSA.
After 9 years in the army, I came to a point where I needed to decide whether or not to make it a career. I asked my boss what she thought my chances were about getting hired at the agency, and she said she would write a request to make sure I was hired. I entered on duty at the NSA, and then 9-11 happened. I have been busy ever since.
I met my wife, Jen, here at NSA headquarters, and we have been married for three years. We don't have any children, but we have two silly Golden Retrievers, Roscoe (4) and Sophie (5 months).
Okay, this wasn't the quick note I had intended...I started typing, and couldn't stop! There are so many gaps, and I apologize for that. I was typing so fast. I think I've said enough that you guys get the picture.
