i stepped outside onto my patio for a minute or two, and in that time something attacked and ate my ankles - the crazy itch has caused me to post :P

waking up early - 9am - wasn't easy. i've barely gotten anywhere with the design specification, but i have been in touch with a number of army related organizations (like, for instance, the army) to sort out post-release stuff:

the army has been putting aside pension money for me since i joined the permanent force. i receive complex and unreadable reports occasionally, but i don't have to *do* anything except receive the cash when i hit retirement age.
erm. although i do have to sign up for the pension plan. apparently that bit doesn't get done automatically :S

one request was so strange (asking them to stop sending me the same referral - three times so far - because it hasn't been relevant since august 2008) that the girl hung up on me because she thought i was pulling her leg...
