So I'm happy to finally update with the info that I'm over the half way point of deployment. Only two months and two weeks to go before I'm back in San Diego! Better then that, In a little over a month after getting back I'M OUT OF THE NAVY! The not so great news, they don't have the next set of leaving school dates so as is goes right now it looks ( Read more... )

So I caved once again. Seems to be a common theme for me. I embraced my inner nerd and ordered the first three season/series of the new Doctor Who series. Even marked down the first three seasons were over 100 bucks. It could have been worse though. I also could have bought a sonic screw driver with it. I decided not to for now but damn it I want ( Read more... )

I really don't know what to say. A lot is on my plate right now and I really don't know where I start. First off I am very happy and proud to say in about a week it will be the 3 year anniversary of me and Pandora as a couple. This is the longest relationship I've ever had and I can't think of a person I'd be more happy to be with then her. So much ( Read more... )

Honestly I think I had more trouble picking out the icon for this post more then anything else. So I finally got around to watching the new movie version of Evangelion. I will say I wasn't not disappointed. Some how they cut the time without losing the meat and potatoes of the original series and for the most part the slight redesigns and ( Read more... )

So I worry about my mental health. I mean besides the stress of the job and being away from loved ones but more in the what I catch myself doing. An example would be today while trying to call home and my bank to check funds I couldn't get a working line to which I made a joke about a young priest, an old priest, a bottle of gin, and a lighter to ( Read more... )

So an update of things I will first say this. Lesson learned for next time I do squats. Less weight more reps as my legs are going to hate me to more. Mostly when I try to get out of bed and they don't want to move. In other words the work out sessions are great. I'm seeing results and feeling the burn in many good ways. Of course I still have this ( Read more... )

So here is something that rubs me wrong. When people come into my shop when I'm playing games on my day off and they act all huffy cause they had to work. When they say they were looking for me I ask them the following questions ( Read more... )

So in Hong Kong at the moment and I'm staying on board. Why would I stay on board in Hong Kong when there is great food and the chance to get on dry land so close? Let me tell you what I've been telling my chain of command for the past week. The main reason I do not want to go out is because I don't trust anyone on this boat to be my buddy out in ( Read more... )

So into week two now of my three day a week work out plan. Lots of cardiovascular training and some light weight training as they don't want us to put on too much muscle mass. I'm doing something in the middle as far as weights go mainly cause I want to keep my weight down but want to up on some mass in the arms, chest, shoulders, and legs. Not ( Read more... )
