I Still Don't Know What I Want to Do When I Grow Up

Dear Universe,

Being that I'm in the military and that I joined right out of high school, it still feels like I never left.  New kids are always enlisting with the usual conversation about high school tits, rebellious banter and general immaturity.  In reality, we are all kids at heart, no matter how senior we are within the ranks.  We insert morbid quotes by General James Mattis under our e-mail signatures and we frequently tell each other to go fuck ourselves.  We curse at business meetings, we say "kill" after every sentence, we watch seasons of "Dexter" for therapy purposes and most importantly, we all love to shoot guns and blow shit up.

Well, that is what it's like right now and sometimes I wonder what I'll be doing in the next 6 years when I retire.  One thing is for sure, I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up. 

Best Regards,
