I'd first off like to congratulate my father who recently became the state of Maryland commander of the VFW(veterans of foreign warfare)and the senior vice commander for his local chapter...
http://www.vfw9862.org/Officers.htm hehe.. my Daddy's picture is on a website!! I thought it was quite fantastic..Eventhough he thinks he looks horrid in the picture... He does look rather mean.. but that's my daddy!
He's really proud of it.. cause there are people that have been member for 10+ years and haven't achieved what he has in 3 years..He's adament now that he's going to make me a member.. cause I do qualify.. shit! I represent with this VFW bracelet.. I wear it every day (the red one in my pictures)...
Anyways... My rental company has been sending contractors out to get estimates on my windows!!! yippe!
Then yesterday a lovely older gentleman from the maitanance company came by to look at my cracked sink basin.. Nothing is wrong with it *yet* it's just really ugly looking..He told me he could caulk it.. And I was real sweet and just told him it wasn't pretty and he agreed and very pleasantly said he'd make sure it got taken care of... like wink wink..hehe..
Things are great..
This weekend we went over to one of the people Derek works with houses for a get together..I loved his wife and this other girl who was in the navy.. They are both named ashley... We took the dogs and everyone just couldnt' get over Azrael... Then after a couple hours we went down to the waterfront.. There are like tons of bars .. first place i've ever been where you can carry your drink into another bar..
Towards the end of the night I ended up having a real long awesome convo with one of the navy guys.. I call him zippers cause his last name was zimmerman... Lots of religious discussion because he's waiting for the call from God to become a pastor just like i've been... He's about to go out on the ship for 6 months..well he already is now.. I just encouraged him to think of that as a blessing in disguise..Cause he had nothing but time to devote himself even more with his faith.. It was great and we related on so many different levels.. Its safe to say after all the sweet shots the girls had me taking after beef and vodka I was goneeeeee....
It still was a great night... Just sucks that most of the people you meet here are leaving...deployments,ships,relocation...
That's kinda why i'm attempting to stay to myself... Yet it felt good to interact with other damn people..
Well I gotta get started on my workout..
poof.
