Forgive me for always writing epics.  I don't yet know how to utilize the LJ cut option and I don't want to lose what I'm writing right now.

Yesterday was such a weird roller coaster of a day.  I woke up at 7:30 feeling particularly unrested, despite having 7 hours of sleep.  A hazard of sharing my bed with someone, I've found, is that I can never ( Read more... )

From Go-Quiz.comI really liked this one. I usually do these but don't post them. So we all know what we're gonna drink when I come home. I'll just ( Read more... )

Here's something that pops into my mind every once in a while.  It's not really the type of thing I put into my real journal so I thought I'd get it off my chest in here.  It's not so much a complaint anymore, just an observation.

Almost every time I do a gig somewhere, military or otherwise, I get the 'American Idol' comment.  Somebody, some ( Read more... )

Here I go once again with the E-mail. Every week I hope it is from a female.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it...

Alright!  12 hour fuckathon.  Oh, wait.  Yeah, okay, now I got it.  Does this mean I get all three at once?  Or is it, like, one at a time for 4 hours each?  I guess I could do that one, but only if I can get Khurby to stop ( Read more... )

I live in a world of Dreams.  I am afraid.  Perhaps I shouldn't be, but "should" is the one word I have spent my life attempting to erase.  I don't live in a world of "shoulds".  I am afraid because I have made a wrong choice in joining the Army.  It is the one regret I have in a lifetime of having no regrets.  When you enlist in the Army, when you ( Read more... )

A lot of shit happened to me this morning that I could have been pretty pissed off about.  But SFC Kenny Hall, the only Sergeant First Class I actually like, said something that I had almost forgotten about.  It's one of those life lessons you learn again and again, and more deeply each time.  He said, "You know, you just have to keep your sense of ( Read more... )

I just want everyone to know that I had the most wonderful LJ entry all typed out, with writing about the past two days.  It had everything in it from telling about seeing the most breathtakingly beautiful sunset I've ever seen (and that's a lot, given that I've lived in Hawaii the past two-and-a-half years) to telling about a fight I got into with ( Read more... )

Alright, just when I thought women were beginning to seem normal and that maybe they weren't so different from men in the grand scheme of things, one little understanding blows my whole fuckin' concept out of the water.  I forgot how omnipotently manipulative women can be when they want to, and I have just gotten out of an encounter with not one, ( Read more... )

Bah.  I suddenly started feeling a little lonely again.  Zelda and hanging out with my married friends just isn't cutting it lately.  It always seems to happen at the end of these great days.  I get to the end of them and look at my pillow wishing there was a long, dark hair on it or searching for a smell that isn't my own.  The question pops up ( Read more... )

For those of you that care...I took a Physical Fitness test this morning.  The Army makes everyone do those every six months, usually with a diagnostic in between on the third month.  They grade you on how many push-ups you can do in two minutes, how many sit-ups in two minutes, and how fast you can run two miles.  The numbers and times are then ( Read more... )
