Okay.
I tried to take the high road when my father remarried.
I tried to be sympathetic and understand he was was lonely, even though my mother hadn't even been dead for a fucking year before he was engaged to someone he knew for four months.
I tried to be friendly and cordial and understand that I am off doing my own thing, so when...

Well, all, it's Christmas time.
The Poconos are unusually warm.
Good: Chris and I get along smashingly. My Dad has a wireless network so I can rock some seriously quick internet (I can get almost a whole season of a show off of iTunes in the time it took to get one ot two episodes in California).
Bad: My Dad's new wife is kind of...

Good luck! 
Got my scores from my last series of tests.
1+ Listening
2 Reading
2 Speaking.
Too bad I needed a 2 on Listening too. I missed it by one question.
FUCK!
I'm still walking on Wednesday, but I won't get the AA from DLI.

Wow, that's rather odd. 
I'm Croatian/Irish amongst other things....if you do know your Croatian Geography though, my family hails from Lika and the city Perusic. Famous for huge people. haha
I'm planning on returning hopefully next year this time visiting the village where my Great-Grandparents came from.
Funnily enough, you don't really need to learn the language to get around there, everyone under 30 speaks English. That said, I'm still trying to learn the language as well.

Yup. Our brigade got over 150 slots for Jan and Feb. Every goddamn E5 and E6 that needs any sort of NCOES is getting it. I'd give you my slot if I could man... SGT is the last rank I'll ever see.

So...
I've been seeing this girl for a few weeks now. We can say now we're boyfriend and girlfriend. We spent a lovely weekend in Carmel, at a little inn where you can see the ocean from our room.
Of course, the whole deal could go away soon enough. She's Army also, and doesn't know where she'll go after DLI. She's of course going to...

Sweet. Girls are good for the soul or heart or maybe both. Brave man, starting a relationship in the Army. I hope she gets to Carson.
Yeah, I worked with a few US citizen 'terps. They definitely rock. I am looking back at the well-paid comment, and think I should just have said paid. We used a lot of younger guys, mostly unmarried, so looking to get bride-price, if you will.
In the long run, the risk they have taken is not equalled by the money we gave them.
I see you have (the) Wounds on your wishlist. Great movie. And One Bullet Away. Good read. If my memory serves me, same crew as Generation Kill, but written by a thinking man.

You'd be correct my good man, in true Cav fashion. Honestly, I could do without the whole cowboy shtick, but I figured I'd get all dressy for the little lady.
Looks like you'll be showin' up while I'm still on leave. But sometime after Jan 15th I'll be sure to take you out and show you the sights, deal?

Is anyone else paying any attention to this whole Litvenenko thing?
I swear if they put this in a James Bond movie, I'd say it was dumber than anything from the Pierce Brosnan days.
But truth is stranger than fiction.

I learned, to my sadness, that there is always a shitbag somewhere. It's all a matter of degrees... As much as I want out of conventional warfare units, the fact is, there will be some retard field-grade pissin' me off, no matter where I go.
So I got the new computer today. MacBook Pro. I am styling. Took the new profile pic with the internal camera and the Photo Booth tool that comes with it. Little bit of fun there.
Getting the iPod and iTunes on the same page now.
Just waiting for Football Manager 2007 to make it's way here from England, and once that's on, I'll be game...

Hurrah for lovin' the woobie! Also, jealous of the new Mac.
This is an interesting thing that I think I want to see what comes of...
I finally worked up the courage to watch United 93 today.
Yeah.
It reminded me a lot of that day...
And when I look at how much I've changed, and how much some things have changed and how much a lot of other things haven't... It makes me sad.
I see people forgetting... I see people capitalizing...
I need a drink.
Yeah.

Don't let your father ruin not only your Christmas, but your definition of home.
