I was thinking about this the other day. Me and Steve Wilfong were at a bar called the Starlight Lounge one night when we were in Florida. We went there because they had Yeung-Ling on tap and it was across the street from Fuel, whenever that got to be too crowded. This was back when I was 21. We were talking to a couple girls who were older than us ( Read more... )

Oh man Sunday was pretty good. I watched the Tyson fight live in the morning at the base theater. McBride didn't throw enough punches but he sure made them count when he did. I was glad to see Tyson lose. A Dorchester mick put down Tyson, thats great ( Read more... )

This weekend has been one of validation and I'm not even finished with Saturday. I slept in until nearly 10, which is something I've needed because my mind has been playing games with me all week and it hasn't been very positive. I'm not sleeping well lately.

I had been trying to watch as many movies/televsion shows with Drea de Matteo as I can get my hands on and since she has been on this show since the beginning I'm good for at least four more seasons.

If I ever needed a vacation, it is now most of all. The squadron is going down hill fast. Our Commanding Officer leaves in May and he has us all in an iron grip, making sure nobody does anything stupid and ruin his chances of leaving us with a relatively good evaluation from the Fleet Admiral. To this end we are all working 12 on 12 off, six days a ( Read more... )
