HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! 
Last night I fell asleep before midnight
, and today hasn't been the greatest of days, tomorrow I'm going to be getting on a plane to fly back to the LAX and eventuay I will end up back in China Lake (aka hell). I can deal with all of this pretty easily, but the worst part of it is that I will be leaving my bride behind 
and I'm not sure when we'll be able to see each other again (I'm pretty sure that's what got both of us a bit down). With my orders being up in the air and not knowing when I am going to be transfering to or even when for that matter it kind of just makes everything a big fucking mess that I am sick of having to deal with. I thought that I had taken care of where I would be going and when I would be doing all of this several months back, and now I am about ready to tell the Navy to go fuck themselves, only I've got a lot more riding on things then just being pissed off at whats happened. People keep telling me that things like this happen for a reason, well I'm tired of it having to be me that this shit keeps happening to for a reason. My career in the Navy has been full of nothing but shit happening for a reason. The school that I had negotiated for back when I first came into the Navy got switched, the orders that would have advanced promoted me from corpsman school and given me a pretty sweet secondary school got canned because there was some asshole senior chief that thought that I needed to do my time as a basic corpsman before getting something like this, and in his words no fucking way a fire controlman is going to walk in here and become a second class corpsmen right off the bat and I got shipped off to China Lake. Well two exams later I'm a second class corpsman faster then if I would have gone through that school, but now I'm getting fucked with again as far as my orders go. I've got one day left in Canada before I fly back and as much as I want to get back to doing stuff I'm not looking forward to having to say goodbye for 4 months minimum if I am lucky. Sometimes I think that there isn't any point to all of this since all I really want to do is start things out with my wife 
with the great American dream, white picket fence and all (ok maybe not so Ozzy and Harriet but I'm sure you know what I mean) When I get back I'm going to start working on getting my nursing license finished so that if there ever comes a point where we don't like what the Navy has to say about where or what it is that I am going to be doing I'll be able to walk away. All I can say right now is that I hope that everyone else has a brighter looking new year then we do for right now.... but on the other hand our new year is so bright we've gotta wear shades.

I really hate that the Navy is messing you around. It seems to usually be some bitter sob who wants to punish you for rising faster then them all the time. Asses!
I hope you and WW can get together sooner than 4 months. That's a long damned time to be seperated, I know that from experience..
