Best move you could make right now.  Focus on getting back on your feet and move on.

If your under the age of 30 you can join the Navy and see the world for free and further your education. I only had to stay in for 8 years after completion of Seal traning. But I said to my self self that wasn't so bad lets do 8 more then I said to my self self that wasnt so bad lets do 7 more. Then in the Gulf war I had a bad night jump which caused severe spinal compression and the Doc said 1 more jump like that and you will never walk again. So I am grounding you to a desk job I said no thanks Doc if I can't be in the field there is no place for me here now. I left with 3 degrees and saw more than 80% of the world in my 23 years and if I had to do it all over again I wouldn't change a thing. It's good solid income and you will always have a home to go to.

Congrats on your service Gaboon. <S>

Although, why in the world any sane person would want to jump out of a perfectly serviceable aircraft is beyond me. ;)

I have always been interested in joining the forces but my dad was such a salamander from the navy that quite frankly I can't bring my self to do it despite that every other soul I have ever met from a branch of the military were some of the most mannered and well to do people I have ever met. I also cant bring my self to cutting my hair. I am a bit afraid of barbers don't completely know why don't care just they kinda make me shudder.

Perhaps this is why?  I suggest staying away from my house, also   :D
