This week is going alot better. I calmed down a bit and got my head straight. I just got picked up for an awesome job working public safety at the local college campus. I don't have to carry a gun (which makes me happy) and the pay is awesome. Thank you federal holidays! 
On top of that, I talked to my buddy Mackey this morning...

Nothing is better then last week.... except me.
Okay, I am officially having the shittiest week ever.
My stepmother had an emergency hysterectomy this week after an abscess was found in her fallopian tube.
My girlfriend broke up with me.
I still haven't received my DD-214 (military discharge paper), and the Navy keeps saying "any day now."
I contacted Veteran's Affairs departments in 3 states, and National Achives... They don't have a copy...

I'l make you a fake one on toliet paper. Trust me. It works.
I am pissed. I cannot get my discharge paper from the military because the persons I have contacted haven't done shit. I need it. I cannot get my medical/dental/educational benefits because I do not have it.
I am about 3 seconds from buying a ticket to San Diego to go and kick some ass.

In other news: As of Friday, 14 September 2007, I was honorably discharged from the United States Naval Service and placed in the active reserves... hello weekend-warriors!
I have since (sort of) grown out the chin-hair associated with being a vet. I enjoy it, for now. Nothing really amazing going on in my life.... start school next...

I enrolled and registered for my classes this week at PCC. Upon enrollment, I discover they have a whole fire protection program which leads to a Assoc. in Applied Sciences degree. So I wanted in. But you we're required to attend the Fire Academy... which I attended in NY.

Glad to hear you got where you were going safe. Things will seem all weird and foreign for awhile, but sounds like you are making the most of your new home
I hope your birthday was awesome, and that the ladies at the titty bar were good

You're gonna be my date.. for lunch... this month... I haven't forgotten.
I think the person I asked to be my date is gonna say no. That's okay, I'm secure in being the single, dateless bridesmaid...
You have no idea how proud of you I am-- you took a chance moving to Portland even when you weren't sure it was the right thing to do. I remember doing it when I moved here, and I have a lot of adoration for people who would take a chance and see what happens.
Like I said-- you're my hero!
