Cruise Book Again

Some of you may recall that I created the cruise book for the first year that we were part of the 31st MEU. I'm proud of my creation, but it took a hell of a lot of my working time and a lot of my "free" time too.

The powers that be decided we should have another cruise book, for the second half of our two-year mission. So far two different officers have asked me to do it again. While it is impolitic to tell an officer "Hell no, sir!", I've been attempting to express that sentiment: "It was a rewarding experience, but I think someone else should get a chance to express their unique perspective. Maybe Sergeant Taylor from Flightline, sir?"

Of course, if they can't find another volunteer, I might get voluntold. That would suck. Because me being me, I don't think I could actually blow it off. I can't stand doing a half-ass job on creative work, especially since 300+ coworkers will be looking forward to the work product. I want to have a good time in Thailand, not spend every evening in my hotel room laying out photo spreads.
