So yeah, I just finished my third tour of Iraq. It was ridiculously lame and except for the money I made, really wasn't worth the trip. I get out now in just a few months so now I have a new part-time job to save up for that gnarly pistol I've been wanting.
Well, I finally got my wish. I'm going back to Iraq on December 1st and I'm actually really happy. I might be able to check this every now and then while I'm there but I can't make any promises. Wish me luck.

I'd be interested to find out why you're really happy but I'm glad for you if that's what you want. Don't get killed and come back in one piece.
I turned 21 last week. My birthday present was hitting a parked car and using all of my birthday money on retarded uniform inspections. That's right, the Marine Corps stole my birthday present. Fuck

Those motherfuckers. Happy belated birthday.
Haven't posted in a while. Sorry, I'm a busy man and only have access to public computers. They don't like me looking at "porn". So yeah, my life is shit. My job is endless, thankless bullshit with a bunch of fucktards running the show. My personal life is bleak and empty, even moreso now that one of my dearest friends suddenly told me that she...

Well, I shot that bad mofo. The headspace was fucked up when I first tried to shoot but after I screwed it in it shot like a dream. I got tight groups but they all landed to the bottom left of center mass so I need to adjust the sights (gott figure out how first). I need to clean the bolt better too because it...

What are you shooting with and what optics are you using?
I just got my first rifle the other day; a Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I from Britain. Iy's an old WWII boltaction. It was pretty dirty after about sixty years in storage but I cleaned it up real nice and I'm shooting it today. Pictures to follow.
I'm back in Cali and the strange atmosphere is unsettling. A barren planet of deadlights and developments. I haven't slept since saturday, and the girl still hasn't responded. She works in mysterious ways; her logic is opaque. Has she decided to 'disappear' like she told me she does sometimes? Is she too overwhelmed by her own life to acknowledge mine? Has she abandoned me? All...

I know how you are feeling man. I've been down that road before. Regardless, your best bet is to just wait it out. Let her do whatever it is she's doing and just let her contact you when / if she comes around. Some women have a strange way of dealing with things when the other half goes away. Just my two cents. Keep your head up man...
Another all-nighter. My sleep pattern is completely fucked up. I have no idea what's causing it. Anyway, I spent the evening and early morning agonizing over lost love and a half-dead friendship slowly grinding into nothing due to past sins and present neglect. I wrote a poem from the other persons perspective. Her whole mindset is a mystery to me and I'm trying to decypher...

It's strange, but I think most people sever relationships for survival reasons - but what seems like a matter of life or death for them seems like a trip to the corner store for those they leave - hence we can never really understand why they had to leave. Well, I never could.
Of course, they could just be heartless bastards/bitches - but I take heart in the fact that most people don't take the trouble to fall in love... so the ones that do must have a reason for breaking it off.

Good news, I now rate the Iraqi Campaign Medal and another Sea Service Deployment ribbon!
