Old application is ooooooooooold
I've been posting on this thing since, like, 2004....wow. Has it really been so long, Livejournal? It feels like only a year or two ago (before I joined the Navy) that I was putting in my account information and getting all of these friends out of nowhere, and everyone was so ACTIVE! Then mySpace came along, and then Facebook...and now look at you, poor little Livejournal.
If mySpace is the ghetto of the internet, then you are the ancient ruins. But I will still haunt you all the same!
IN OTHER NEWS!
Day by day my life in the Navy is feeling less like it did when I first joined and more and more like a bad parody of the timeless movie classic "Brazil". I seriously am trying to not let the military ruin Japan for me, but I will be damned if my command isn't TRYING! Not saying that joining the Navy was a bad idea, but I just wish to all that is holy that they'd sent my ass to Yokosuka like I wanted all along instead of sticking me in the Refuse Bin of the Western Pacific Fleet (that'd be Sasebo, folks).
I've got 10 months, 44 weeks, and a little over 300 days until this nightmare is close to being over. The only way they're probably going to let me pick new orders to get out of here is if I re-enlist...YEAH, RIGHT. Maybe if it's the Reserves, or maybe the National Guard or something. Hell, maybe even the Peace Corps! Anything's better than Tortuga.
