HEY~! HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY, EVERYONE!
Larxene got, among other thing, this from me >D (And this one because it amused the hell out of me) She's not into the whole valentine's shtick, but I'm in it for the fun, so while she sits there like a sexy lump on a hot motherfucking log, I'll shower her in goodies and she'll fucking like it. :P
The rest of this is just medical/job related mumbo jumbo, so those that aren't interested can fuck off.
Those that are aware of my current job know that I'm knee deep in a cool little mix of military action and medical action. It's like, a surgeon armed with a machete. I'll bring you to the brink of death and then pull you back! Those that are close to me know about the trip I have coming up in summer where I'll be going with a small group of coworkers to a war-sick nation down in Deep Forest (or Jungle, what the fuck ever). Apparently we'll be gone a few weeks, and they want us to get some training in for the stuff we'll have to carry with us. Now, I have former military training so I'm used to all of this, but goddamn, man!
I'll be carrying a radio, a "portable hospital," a trauma kit, fire starters, water purifiers, tarps, cords, eight knives, one rifle, eight scopes, two hand guns, a stand, enough ammo for each to assure that we'll be okay if we're cut off from supplies for up to four weeks, camping gear, stun gun, armor, spare boots, laptop and books, camo (including the full body suit that makes me look like a swamp demon), mosquito netting, gas mask, biochemical suits, and rations on top of that. That's a lot of shit! SOOOO not looking forward to it at this moment, but it's for a good cause and I know I'll be okay 'cause I"m tough like that.
We'll also be learning first hand a shitload of medical procedures so it'll be worth it. I'm gonna have to get a bunch of interplanetary phone cards and loads of laminated pictures of my babies... all four of them~ Six if you count the pets. I wonder if they'd let me take Braig? He'd have fun!
My new employers are also highly interested in a project they've been working on for quite a while... and it's the first time they've had someone like me able and willing to test it out for them. This sounds like straight out of the science fiction zombie apocalypse movies, but~
I've been taking medicine that's helping restore nerves in my right eye, in what's left of the socket. In a few weeks, I'm undergoing a procedure that's going to deaden most of the remaining nerves and they're going to unveil some of the muscle I still have left... there's not a whole lot they can do for the mangled skin, so they're not going to bother (so don't worry, babe... I don't know why you like it so much- hell, it's mine, and I fucking hate looking at it! Silly thing, I don't think I'll ever understand you totally and completely... you're lucky you're cute ♥ love you~)
BUT! They've created a bionic eye ball. NOT KIDDING. And they're letting me try it out! Of course, I have no optic nerves left, so they can't wire it to my brain or anything, but they're redesigning it (with the help of one of my classmates, I hear) to feed into a specialized pair of sunglasses, and I'll be able to control it with my cell phone to zoom in, take pictures and recordings, brighten, darken, and even switch into night vision and heat vision modes! I can even use it to send all the recorded data to anyone I chose... which would usually be just headquarters, but whatever...
Sounds fun, and I'm getting big bucks for trying it out! And if it works, I get to keep it!
Other than that, I'm likely going to be out of town from late on the 17th until early on the 19th... maybe the 20th. I'm not sure, depends on when I can get my tickets. My love still didn't tell me whether or not she wants to go with me~
What's up with everyone else? :D
KAIRI! Yeah, I saw you sneakin' away, you little vixen~ who's the blonde kid? >3
