not much here. just about to hit the sack and get ready for tomorrow. after today not much can really mess up my day. one of the guys who was pretty much dead weight got caught being as useless as a bag of sand as a flotation device. hopefully, that’ll wake his ass up and get him in gear. if not, he’ll soon be back on the other side of the counter. no problem to me. I’m handling mine like a pro. well, see you all later.
I posted this in a battle poll thread, but I think it’s more at home here (with some of the first SRK e-friends I made). I just lived through a very powerful storm.
It was a scary experience, and I’m just happy the house (and indeed my extended family) survived without much damage.
(Still no power at home, still typing away from home)
:wow: damn!!! I’m glad to hear you’re alright. I was hoping it didn’t hit close to where you were, but it looks like I was hoping in vain. at least you’re still hanging in there. Late night for life!!!
Waiting for my friend to call me about my machine that had to be fixed. Yep, she has the fixed model since the company can’t do international repairs, so I’m here, waiting for her to call me back, on Thanksgiving. The girl got it back months ago, but because of complications, she couldn’t send it out properly. And she’s older. I’m not frankly sure of how someone can screw up a delivery…but yeah…she fucked it up. Twice. If it were me, I’d get it out my house ASAP with no fuckups whatsoever. Everytime I do something, it gets done, but if I ask for a favour, it seems to get fucked up. Tells me her phone is fucked…so calling does nothing.
I really want my pda back. Life needs to be mine again.
Still, I got two dinners and no booze at all. Thanksgiving is about me drinking after eating…but with a christian mother who praises her friend’s scholastically bright children for what, exactly? I brace them today. The guy’s a dumbass. My mom believes that I should befriend every single son of her friends that I know for some sort of reason, regardless of how uninterested in their lives I become.
Sorry, the jackass you wanted for a son can no longer be reached at this address. Please stand by for true intelligence.
On a great note, I have a application to finish for my job and I’m heavily infactuated with a woman whose older than me. I see her tommorow for breakfast. Sadly, I also want another who is my age and is about to give me the first date.
Don’t mind me, I just don’t like putting up with unnessary shit.
welcome to the club. That’s one of the main reasons I try like hell to avoid going anywhere near any of my friends parents if I can. sad to say, but that doesn’t get any easier when you get older. it’s one of those days when you think," I’m not that hungry anyway. I could just go grab the booze and head out." Yep. been there, done that way too many times.
I just heard about the quake in Hawaii and of course, I’m here to find out our resident porn master’s status. if anyone knows anything, please shout back. Damn this world is coming apart faster and faster all the time now.
yep. you know who it is and it ain’t the juggernaught… bitch.
I’ve been pretty absent of late since I’ve been pushing long hours at work. just trying to get some cash together so that I can get what I want. that being, a little peace of mind on the money side of life. shouldn’t take too much to do that, but I have to put down the effort to make it happen or I’ll be sitting on nothing. that’s not where I want things ending, so I’m gonna make it happen the way I want it to. so far, everything is going well. holla back and let me know what’s going down for all of you.
I work the goofiest schedule of all time.
Till January.
I work billeting(graveyard shift), and then some weeks i get 3 days off, others it’s 4 days off.
Im loving the army right now cause of this. I dont have to goto formations at all. I PT on my own, etc.
I’ve also officially evaded Iraq for another deployment as far as i know. It’s possibly going to be to Qatar instead(which is where i went for r&r). I was talking with my 1SG and i was telling him that i didnt want to go back to Iraq and experience that crap again. I was like one of 2 ppl in my new battalion that’s deployed combat arms and not combat support arms. We pretty much got whatever we wanted as far as requesting what we wanted to do in the battalion, and i asked for billeting
So you are on the shift schedule like… 2 on, 2 off, 3 on, 3 off? Something like that? I’m going back to shift next month, and I can’t wait. Hopefully I get night shift.
In other news, I’m back to work, still in a brace, but walking around. Been kept busy with a new soldier - actually a transfer from another section. On the verge of bankruptcy, but I’m salvaging what I can. The powers that be took my all my soldiers away and left me with this new one. I’ve had this one for exactly one week and I have already written seven counselings on the soldier… at least the First Sergeant made a wise decision giving the soldier to us. We have a history of reforming soldiers in our platoon, and I’ve reformed some that were going to get booted. Hopefully this one gets shit straight soon, but it’s a work in progress… and eating up all my time.
naw it’s not 2 on 2 off or anything like that. I just work Thurs, Fri, Sat, Sun from 18 to 06. And then every other week it’s just Fri, Sat, and Sun. No matter what though i get 3 days a week off. And i dont ever have to deal with any of the other bs you typically got to deal with being army.
I think the rotation ends in January, i forgot. Then i might be deploying to Qatar come the end of March.
It’s such a sham. I just chill out and watch movies, play games, and laugh at ppl that come in with the wierdest of problems.
You had your brace on for a min huh, atleast youre gettin better.
Damn seven counselings in 1 week is wild. I dont think you’ll have any problems straightenin dude out.
The screen on my laptop no longer works. It was fine last night before I went to bed. Woke up this morning to check my email. Turned on the laptop… heard the usual startup noises… nothing comes on. Aight fine, I’ll deal with it when I come home.
Came back from school/work and tried it again. Nothing. Finally I hooked my laptop to a monitor and try to dual screen that shit and for a while, I was successful. Now, for some unknown fucking reason, when I turn on the laptop, nothing fucking happens. My HD isn’t even spinning. I can’t get anything to display on the monitor and I am in a bitter mood here.
I’m gonna have to get it repaired and I really don’t want to cause I wanted to get a new PC but as of right now, I don’t have the proper funds for one. I’m lucky enough to be able to use my laptop from IBM as they gave me one to use for work but now, I’m gonna have to use it for school.
I’m just chilling at home watching the assrape that is the UK Vs LSU game. 49 - 0 ain’t a game. I should sue to get that hour of my life back. with the sadness that this world has become, I could win. meh. before I start whining I’m gonna drop off and hit some bed. I’ve got some work to hit in the morning. everyone take care.
yours truly is doing that thing again. relaxing and all.
Ducky: glad to hear you’re up and running. I didn’t doubt for a second that you were okay. Still, it’s always good to hear from people.
Falling Edge: yo. that sucks. I can’t think of anything that would be the cause of your problems either. if it’s an old computer, it just might be time for it to go. try and keep it alive if you want, but it may be that time.
It’s the reunion haven’t been on here in a hot second, but I always seem to come back. I turn 21 on Saturday which coincidentally is also homecoming weekend. I’ve taken up tae kwon doe and my feet are quite tender at the moment because of it. Classes are trying my patience. I’m busy as hell as usual, so it may be another 6 months to a year later when I finally post back. Just wanted to say what’s up to the regular crew holding it down.
Falling Edge: Sucks dude, I feel your pain. If worse comes to worse try selling the parts.
Starhammer: Long time no see. What’s new?
Ducky: You need to come up with an original porn site. Like horny black, midget, peg legged, irish women (all one word) dot com. If you tell me it already exists I will die a little inside.
