Packing

I hate packing, with a fiery, all-consuming passion. Seriously. It's become the bane of my existence, and to the next person who says, "Get used to it; you're in the Army," I have only only angry words for you. Honestly, though, a career in the Army has got to be more stable than the fourth year of medical school. I was not in the same place for longer than two months in the last year. Don't believe me? Here's a recap:
