The names have been changed to protect the innocent
I thought about deleting my lj, and I did for a few days. But then I thought that was retardiculous, where am I going to vent? So instead I opted for a name change. It's not all that exciting, just my name in reverse. Ta-da! So why would I go through all that trouble? Mostly because I needed something different. That, and I am no longer the ( Read more... ) -
In Israel
So we're in Israel. It's a very interesting country. I went on a tour of Jerusalem yesterday. We walked around the Mount of Olives, the Old City with the Wailing Wall, and the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. When I get the chance, I'll upload some pictures when I can. I'm going on a tour of the Dead Sea tomorrow. I'm definitely seeing more of ( Read more... ) -
122 days left
Well. What can I say? It's day 73 and I am so ready for this deployment to be over. I haven't really posted because I'm tired of bitching all of the time (that's what I have been doing lately) and I can't really talk about where we are, what we're doing, etc. One of these days I might be able to. So just know that I'm okay, the halfway point ( Read more... ) -
Anchors Aweigh!
Yeah, so I know, I know. But I do have a valid excuse. I had to take care of a bunch of stuff and then I left for a six-month deployment. So, it's been busy. Really really busy. I can't say where I am in this exact moment, but I can say that in the past week I have enjoyed seafood paella, tapas and sangria. Yum. -
Hey
Haven't even loaded the main LJ page in a while. Things are busy. I've been on leave and getting ready to go on deployment the second week of September. Not really ready for it. Things were so hectic and I feel like I have to do everything RIGHT NOW. Sad. I haven't really talked to a lot of my friends in so long. I miss them. I feel like I' ( Read more... ) -
Yeah yeah, underway!
So I've been underway for a while, and our internets were sucky, so that's why I haven't been around. It really sucks that we are gone so much this close to deployment. I'm tired all of the time and I haven't gotten laid in over 6 months. Aren't I the ray of sunshine. I'm hoping that I get better and post more often. I have even set up a ( Read more... ) -
This is the one in which I make myself disappear!
Ah, you gotta love staying overnight on the ship when you don't even have duty. I shall disappear to my rack sometime soon. Then I'll wake up bright and early - TA DA! I shall say. Because I have time-travelled.
(you have to be here to understand any of this) -
Hmmm...
Seriously. I guess I haven't been around much. Not a whole lot going on. Well, at least not anything worth posting about. The yards sucked, but life at sea has been sucking more. We go on deployment in about three months, and I haven't been home for more than a month since March. Life has been hectic and my work days while inport Norfolk have ( Read more... ) -
Well that fucking sucks
Tomorrow is supposed to be a day off, but I have to go back to fire fighting school. Yay fun. Saw Chad at the chief's test this morning, but nary a word from him. My friend Tanya told him last night he was a dick. Of course when confronted, he's all apologetic (except to the one person he should apologize to) and that he feels bad, but I ( Read more... )
