Back again...!

Well, it's been awhile but I have managed to get back on the keyboard at last after quite a long dry stretch. School and work, along with more than a few time management lapses have intervened to keep me from writing. However, I hope to do better over the remainder of the summer and the next school year. Between the upcoming election in November, and my life and work, I should have plenty of material. Speaking of life and work---I have never intended this blog to turn into a personal journal, and it won't, but I will try to work in more things that I learn from day-to-day life, rather than just focusing on public news and events. I may also decide to blog on my upcoming (God-willing) training and duty with the U.S. Marine Corps. Once again, not so much on a personal level, but more to give an account of service for those who want to know what USMC officers go through while preparing for and fulfilling their duties. I think that posts will also generally end up being shorter, but hopefully much more frequent (than they have been recently.) That's all for now!
