I will see you Sunday then, but I unfortunately NOT be in full bridesmaid garb.

Getting shots definitely sucks. I had to get a tetanus booster in 2003 due to a workplace injury. That fricking shot hurt worse than the injury (slicing a big gash into my finger).

I had expected more when I made the switch from Big Army to Special Operations. Too bad Big Army has infiltrated the Group Support Battalion en masse.

Very Good!!!

exactly

Good karma I suppose...good for you

haha! dumbass! I feel sorry for your Kittun, I hope you get him back.

I miss drawing. hope I get it next term.

You know what's crazy? I never think for once that my special someone is going to run off with Jody. I think if I had that lack of faith, I'd end it before it got that far.

On the flip side, if I were leaving her in an Army town (not the Springs, that doesn't count, but like Sierra Vista, AZ or Fayetteville, NC), I would be 100% certain that they boys would be trying thier damnedest to get her to cheat. Because I've seen it... Joe (as a concept and a whole) is a fucking scumbag about that.

Well, in his defense, it's hard to deny what you see all of the time. I can't speak for Colorado much, since I really only spent two months there before I deployed, but EVERYWHERE else I've gone, it's maddening to see how rampant adultery is in the Army. It blew my mind. I'd say just do your best to let him know that you're not part of that culture, so there's nothing for him to worry about.

ooh tell me about the concert! I will try my hardest to go

I'm trying to get through Mists of Avalon, at the insistence of my friend Jenny. I'm finding it terribly easy. I think I'm having trouble with suspension of disbelief (as it were--basically removing preconceptions from OTHER Arthurian stories I've read). I just can't dig on an Ygraine sympathetic to Uther. Part of the whole deal to me is Uther's use of Merlin's magic for the wrong reasons showing why he isn't fit to wield Excalibur and unite the Britons.

And I'm also reading Islam for Dummies and The Koran for Dummies, but that's for work-related purposes.

I took a class on the Arthur legend at Penn State. I've been kicking the idea around of doing a set of stories, which would, in effect, be a log of a King Arthur Pendragon RPG campaign, with characters doing things in the backdrop of the greater legend.

Because it's not likely I'd ever be able to actually run a KAP game for a few years (since I won't be in one place long enough to go from the rise of Uther to the Death of Arthur, and anything less would just lack payoff), it lets me enjoy the depth of the legend.

What keeps me from it now is finding characters that will talk to me that aren't either overdone or just blah.

Glad your kitty came home.

hooray for the triumphany return of the kitten!!

good luck trying to find a real job in Evergreen. It seems you need to be friends with your prospective employer up here.

Close. Its a nautilus with a binary overlay.
