Nope.  I moved to cali.  I am in beautiful 29 Palms, California.  I think it is actually more of a shit hole than anywhere I was in Afghanistan.  I do A LOT of driving out here.

Nice, man.

[Variable]

yeah.  I have my own place for the first time in 3 years.  Even got all of my furniture from before I joined the navy, out of storage the other day.  But I am out in the field more than I am home.  So I kind of wonder if its worth all the bills.

I go to a cold weather medicine course in about a week and a half.  If I come back without frostbite or some kind of high altitude sickness, ill consider it a success.  It's good to be home.

[Variable]

OMFG I am so pissed off right now.  My chief just told me that I'm pretty much going to be living in Bridgeport for the first 3 months of the year.  I have to do a Mountain medicine course.  Then right when that is over they are sending me to a month long FUCKING PACK ANIMAL course.  What the fuck? Pack animals?  I'm pretty sure I'm the only person in this Regiment who has been deployed to Afghanistan before.  I really wish they would have asked me about this shit before they paid for it.  A month...of god dam pack animals.  In one of the coldest places in the US.  This is why people get out of the military. Then I get to come back for 10 days.  Just to go right back out for about a 3 week field op.  This is some shit.  If anyone is looking for a good house to break into, look me up.  Except I'm just going to piss on all my stuff before I leave.  That way, jokes on you.

[lostpilot]

ehm. horse shit :|

[Variable]

Yeah.  I wouldn't be so mad if it was for something worth a fuck.  But a month long pack animal class?  If I didn't hear it for myself I would think it was a really funny joke.  I can just see some brilliant officer trying to make the next rank bringing this up in a meeting

" So Jim, do you have anything to add to the classes that our Marines should attend before they go to Afghanistan?" 

" Well Bill I was thinking.  What if we are out there in the shit, and our vehicles break down?  We might need to emergency egress with all of our gear.  So we might need to commandeer donkeys.  Yeah, or a mule.  And and and um.... someone needs to know how to pack those animals.  Oh and know how to help them if they get sick.  OH! send the corpsmen to the class.  That way they can fix us and the animals.  We should definitely do this!"  Then they all sit around and agree with each other, and make it so.

These fucking idiots don't even realize that they are going to be on a big ass FOB with pizza hut and shit.  They think its going to be all rural and spartain.  Fucking idiots.

anyways though.  I went back to work and pitched a pretty big hissy fit like this.  I think I might have moaned and groaned my way out of it.  Only time will tell though.

[whodunit?]

Haha, that sucks man! And I mean it.

[Zevaka]

[Variable]

Haha, that sucks man! And I mean it.

It all worked out bro.  I had a good time at the course I went to.  And I got out of the month long ass packing course.  So its all good.

lol, I have no idea why you posted that her.  But yes, I guess I can see why people might not like clowns after that.

Hope you ended up getting some sleep in your Happy Booty gear.   

[Variable]

I stayed up for like 3 more hours watching entourage.  I'm a gluten for punishment.  But for reals.  did you see how happy I was when I busted out my happy booties?  Oh man, greatest things EVER!

[White Pwny]

THREE more hours?!  wth?  You were falling asleep!    haha.  yer a tard.


And yes, you were happier than anyone I've seen, about yer Booty clothes.   


I ended up falling asleep FAST.... but it was 4:30 in the FUCKING MORNING!  haha.

[Variable]

yeah, I was pretty fucking tired today because I woke up at like 10 or 11 or something around then.  I'm at a friends house now but ill be home in a bit if you are still awake

[White Pwny]

I was not awake.    I watched some TV and crashed before midnight.   Then, I slept til like 10:30 today!   Felt great to get sleep like that.

[Variable]

dude I was two hours late to work today because my ass wouldn't wake up even though I set 3 alarms.  That is very unlike me.  Good think I'm in charge, or else I might have gotten in some trouble

Man...I got an estimate for the flooring yesterday.....with labor,haul away,pads bla bla bla....it's gonna cost me $4,600!! DAYUM! But that was the first estimate,through Empire. I'm gonna get one from Lowes and Home Depot too. then,if it's still too much,I might install the shit myself. I did find one on the H.D site that I liked ALOT...its Hand Scraped (which I LOVE) Bamboo,and it's on sale.

Wish I'd hurry up and get the w2.

[Variable]

Word.  I need to get my taxes done too.  Then I'm going to go to the casino and put it all on red.  Anyone else down?   

I like that floor though.  The darker the better when it comes to wood IMO.  Although I would probably go with some sort of cherry wood if I actually had my own house.  I really don't know much about bamboo floors at all.  Are they popular where you are?  Or what made you want to get them?

[devilinside]

I just like how they look...the way the notches show and stuff. I don't know anyone with them either. And the fact that it's a renewable resource makes me feel better about buying it. I like darker wood too...it'll be a bitch since my dog leaves white hair everywhere,but it will still feel cleaner than carpet. gross. I'm going with darker,almost black bamboos. It matches my walls (which are red) and other furniture in here.

[whodunit?]

call me a hypocrite but I want to join the army, Trey.

[Variable]

Now why on earth would you want to do that?
