ATTERBURY SUCKS!!! Five days of demobing could have been EASILY done in three days. But no, it doesn't make sense, so the 'Army' does it that way. Ah well, leaving Atterbury at nights and not coming back until way late in the evening with a bunch of my Army buddies was awesome! Car (more like SUV) shopping with the buyer and two other buddies riding shotgun. And we told him yay or nay about the vehicles. I think he's going to buy a Chevy Tahoe. And going to the mall and eating at restaurants is awesome and quite fun. Too bad I cannot do that with my friends at home... mainly because I seem to be paying the bills... I dunno. Or maybe because me and my Army buddies are totally different from each other and from distance places in the states and we were brought together, unwillingly, but together to do something. We learned to fight together, train together, and take care of each other. Something that I'll never to learn to do with my friends at home... it's sad, but...
I'm a totally different person. And as in our briefings, "It's going to be a hard and stressful time fitting back into your civilian life." And I agree. I expect family and friends been to one way, and I'm sure they expect me to be another way. Plus it'll going to be heck for me to be visiting family/friends and it'll be forever before I can settle down, and I'm sure that everyone will be too eager to do something or even to see me, and they'll get POed when I can't. I'm going to dump whatever I think of what they should/do and start with a mind set to 'reknow' them again, it's been a year, and they have been doing okay without me. Actually, I don't know what to think. Because I hardly hear from my friends at home. I mean, I sacrifice alot of sleep time to access the net, hoping to hear word from home. And too many times I've never see them online or never hear much from them with I do see them online. I'll see what's happening. I fear that I'll be spending alot of time hooking up with my Army buddies for road trips, parties, or even just to 'hang out'. It's been alot of fun doing that, and it'd be cool to do more again.
However, I do wish to offer my best wishes and thanks to my online friends that has been on my case, offering advice, or just being there for me.
