Promotion Day

Last month I got promoted to 1st Lieutenant! Woo!
If you don't know anything about our promotion system, the promotion from 2nd LT to 1st LT is basically an automatic promotion after 2 years, as long as you are still breathing and haven't burnt down any buildings or anything. Even so, it is awesome to get for a few reasons- For one, people no longer assume you are brand new. But even more awesome is an added $900/month. Sweet!

For my promotion ceremony I just had some friends and people I work/have worked with come. My boss did the official ceremony/oath part. (He's an awesome boss, btw. I'm pretty lucky.)

Then I had two of my best friends pin on my new bars

Thanks for comin guys!
