Good times...
Well, it's been a while, so I figure i should have an update.
First off, I started the NYPD process, and I was on medical review for a couple of weeks. First, my collar bone, they wanted x-rays, but when i got there the doctor just told me to do a couple of push-ups and cleared me, funny stuff. then, i was on cardiac review, they take a EKG which measures your heart beat, and told me there was something abnormal about it, and that i had to get an ultrasound of my heart done. let's just say that was there scariest two weeks of my life, not knowing if there was anything wrong with me, and going through all of the possibilities of what could be wrong. but i got another test done and was cleared by the NYPD and a private doctor, so that's all good. Now i wait to contact my investigator to do all of the other tests. I'm so excited for July to come and finally to be doing something that I think I will love, and making money too.
Peggy and I are doing amazing right now. After a couple of really rocky weeks, I finally got my head straight and we are as happy as ever. I just got back from one of her indoor Drum Corp shows up in CT. It was surprisingly interesting, although a little too long for my tastes. I really enjoyed it though, she's a really good teacher. The one thing that bothers me a little though is the fact that she thinks I don't understand it at all. I mean I know that I'm not musically inclined, but I'm not dumb either, and I kinda started to understand a lot, even though she'll probably always say that I don't understand anything. It's cool though, being there kinda made me want to crash some cymbals together I must admit. =)
I'm excited to almost be done with this internship, and graduation. Seriously these past four years have gone by so quickly, and I've met some of the best people this earth has to offer. Thinking about graduation made me realize a lot. First, I can't thank my family enough for the support (finacially and emotionally) that they have given me. I probably would have dropped out and joined the military if it weren't for them. It also makes me wish that I had kept running, I miss it so much. Maybe I just miss the lifestyle and the team comraderie, but my first two years in MO were the best years of my life. I miss those people more than anything. As far as tallahassee goes, I love you guys, and I'll see ya soon, but (no offense) I don't think anyone can replace my MO bitches.
I was supposed to go up there this weekend, but I couldn't muster up the cash to go, I really regret not just saying "fuck it" and going. Hopefully I can get out there before graduation, but it doesn't seem likely. I've already taken so much time off work, it's a little ridiculous.
Another thing I want to talk about is my baby brother. My mom just called me and told me how he's acting up again. I'm sorry, but Henry, what the hell is going through your head?! I really wish that kid would just wake up, get over the divorce and stop treating the world like it fucked you. Kid, and you are still a kid, you need to realize that nobody owes you anything, and that I KNOW you are a good kid, start acting like it. Stop rebelling and realize that you are what you make of yourself, the world isn't going to spoon feed you, treat people how you want to be treated. I'm really worried about you Henry, you're headed down the wrong road brother, I just wish there were words I could say that would stick with you.
Other than that everything is going pretty smoothly, the weather is starting to get nicer, and I'm starting to feel better about being here. I'll try and update more often, but can't make any promises.
