I just hit the biggest milestone in my Navy career. I was selected for promotion to Chief Petty Officer (CPO)! This was my 5th attempt at selection, and I finally saw my name on the list. Today begins six weeks of training to transition into the new role. There's nothing like this in any other branch of the military, and I'll be busy in the coming weeks with leadership training, team building, and self reflection. When all of this culminates on the day of pinning (Sept. 16th), I'll be known in the Navy as Chief!
Guess you're gonna have to get one of them CPO shirts mate

For the next 7 days I will not be wearing jeans at all…...first time in a long time :o

I got my older brother, who lives in LA, a pair of the Triple Works Beatle Busters in the sale. He's been wearing them for the last few days.
Since then he's been told he's a rockstar, and he described them as being badass and the best pair of jeans he's ever had. Oh, and he's been hanging out with a girl whose last two boyfriends were A-listers, you've probably seen their names at the top of movie posters! :o
He's now a convert to Japanese denim, and was making noises about needing more pairs. Shame he's completely broke.
If he ever makes any money then I think that @Giles has another addict in his customer base…

today my girlfriend of 6 years and I told her parents that we are planning on moving in together within the next few days. They were very supportive and this thrilled us immensely. hooray for not being shot and instead given the familial blessing to take this next step!

Having a beer to celebrate a new job…
After a few month's of running around trying to get myself into the Michigan beer industry I've landed a position, and with one of my favorite breweries no less. I'm starting to my journey into beer in earnest at Short's Brewing Company in two weeks and I couldn't be happier.
The beer is the Spruce Pilsner by Short's (of course). It's brewed using a bunch of blue spruce tips picked in Northern Michigan and is pretty darn tasty if I do say so myself…
