Roger Dodger,what's your vector, Victor?

Okay. So I have not been in a hospital or dead for the last couple months. I promise.
I think that around the holidays I have tendency to get a little depressed. I don’t really check my email or take any phone calls. I get pretty flaky too. I don’t really understand it, especially since I am a pretty happy guy.
So here is what has happened and is happening.
I finished my fall semester and still have a 4.0 at Grossmont. Only 11 more credit hours to go until I get my Forensic Technology Certification. That will mean that I have completed all of the major requirement for an AS, but not the general requirements. That is okay. Since making the decision to become a sworn officer, I have decided to major in something a little less math-y than chemistry like English.
I have been asked by the SDPD to apply again in a year.
I have an orientation to attend next week for the SDSO (San Diego Sheriff's Office); at this I will receive some important information as well as a background packet. This is like step 4 out of 8 for their application process.
I have applied for the CHP, and will attend my POST written exam on February 7th. The application process for the guys is typically between 6 months and 1 year.
I was elected President of GXX. This is the Grossmont college branch of the ACJA (LAE in Greek) since I was just filling in for president the last semester, and was actually only the Vice president. This ought to be a pretty good semester for us. Lots of cool things on the agenda such as tour the SDSO crime lab, have a “how to get hired in law enforcement” mini class and professional interview panel, as well as the regular monthly meetings. We will hear form speakers who specialize in prison gangs, sexual assault investigations, Internal Affairs investigations, hopefully Kristin’s dad will come up from El Paso and give us a little presentation on his work with the joint Forest Service /DEA taskforce.
I have scheduled an appointment to hopefully get my ear fixed.
I think that is pretty much all of the big stuff.
So... by this time next year I could be: a dad, a sheriff, a Police officer, a Highway Patrolman, a Certified Forensic Technician, an Assistant manager at Starbucks.
I think now that I broke through the block, I may be a little more apt to stay current, especially because this is going to be an exciting couple of months.
