It actually turned out to be a pretty good weekend...

We spent our days drinking, screwing, and having heart to hearts in between phone calls from his mother. She's been researching military law and we think we might have something.

Josh has really, REALLY sensitive skin which chaffes and bleeds. He has a huge paper trail of medical treatment from the last time he was...

hey i hope everything works out! your boy has been there once there is no need for him to go back. the army needs to work more on getting new soldiers to enlist then on wearing out its current crop.

BAD NEWS: Ok, I know it's not Monday...but here it is...

My friend Josh, a.k.a Army Guy got a call on Thursday...he's being called back to active duty. They're sending him back to Iraq.

Apparently they called his mom, then his roommate, then the school, then his job. Yeah, they tracked him down.

He showed up to my house Thursday an hour early and told...

you might wanna start a thread in the current events forum, that way more people get to give you their input, rather than just your journal entry...I sure hope ya'll figure something out, mama!

Spent all day in my orientation for the Mercedes program I'm starting on Monday.

The first thing they did was hand us our paperwork and send us all off to get drug tested.

Now, I don't use drugs...so assuming that my pee didn't come out as straight whiskey...I'm good. And next Monday I'll have a classroom with enormo, squisky, office chairs...a lab full of new...

That is fucking sweet. I had a friend who used to work on bulletproof Mercedes. He said it was an cool job. Way to go straight to the top.
hati:
Girly-man. That is funny. It's that long hair of his and perfect teeth. In college, he had bad teeth (gaps between every one of them) and close-cropped hair. He looked bery different and would wear Timberland boots with the tounges out. Basically, he looked like a jock jerk. He's very different looking now, clearly. I've heard a lot of the stories about the editing from him, and they've really cut it to look like he's boring. I don't know if you saw the bed of nails thing, but he wsa really the first one on there, and alos volunteered to be the guy to break this piece of rock the shwami (or whatever you call 'em) had on his chest while laying on the bed of nails. Big ol' sledgehammer, right on the rock, which was on his chest. But they cut that out. Seeing the kind of rockin' crowd you hang with, I am not surprised you'd need a real burly guy.

I seem to be walking a fine line between being in a serious funk...thinking about my brother...and the possibility that I'll see The Greaser when I go to the hotrod show...after so much has changed.

I'm also quite happy with this non-relationship/relationship I'm having with Army Guy. If there were something more than just fuck buddies and below dating...that's where we'd be.

Not to mention...

Another six hours of school spent pinstriping...

Got out there in the sun (earlier this time so it wouldn't be so painful) and striped some spiderwebs on my fenders and quarterpanels.

When I brought my instructor out to check them out he said that were 'great' and that he was impressed with how bold I was to just come out and stripe the shit out...

mercie:
Oh man... this has been my world for so long. I just want to get my head above water, that's all I ask. to just be able to pay everything, on time if possible.

I just got fucked in the ass with no lube by the motor vehicle administration. I hate them.

Y'know how when you play too much tetris you can still see the shapes in your head? Like when you're talking to someone and you can see those little shapes falling into place around them?

Well it seems the same thing happens when you've been spending so many hours pinstriping. Innocent bystanders have no idea that when I SEEM to be listening to them...really my...

This past week has been a mix of angry, heart breaking emails from home...taking some time off work to spend with Army Guy who just got a great job (meaning i won't see him as much)...and counting down the days until I graduate...(1 week, 1 day)...

Something of a mixed blessing to let go of someone I loved so much...someone who I never thought I'd...

Another hot day in Houston...

No word on the grading situation as of yet...I'm trying to be patient.

Mr. Roland tried to say 'hello' to me as we passed each other in lab. I kept my livid mouth shut.

Finished my glass etch, which is now sitting in my car so I can show it to the girls at work...

Spent the rest of my...

I like the pinstriping job!

I hope today is better for you than yesterday was.

Can you put racing stripes on my pants? Or flames? I'm pretty sure that would rule.

And yeah, it seems like the people who know us least are always the ones pronouncing judgements on us. Fuckers.

A nice quiet Sunday afternoon laying on my couch re-reading the earlier Harry Potter books.

It doesn't look like I'll get a booty call tonight and while I'll miss the company... I REALLY need a night off...to just sit and be quiet...and finally get some real sleep.

Um...not like I'd complain if he kept me up...
