ok...so Friday the 13th it snowed for all of three hours here in San Antonio. WEIRD.
the rest of the weekend went spleningly..."splendingly" I think I meant to say splendidly. pfah.
anyhow the very next morning, being St. Buymesomethingtoshowmeyouloveme Day (oooh is that bitterness I smell? nah, man it's this aftershave...I don't wear aftershave) dawned bright and sunny with not a cloud in the sky...

it's....snowing?!?!? wtf.

Friday the 13th indeed.

surreal

somehow it amazes me to remember every year that Valentine's Day is actually the anniversary of the day I headed out to boot camp. since I don't have a date for Valentine's (working anyway...at a hotel puke ) maybe I should just do a whole bunch of pushups and 8 count body builders instead?

cleaned up my friends list a...

It is just wrong for it to snow in Texas. I'm glad I was down at the beach, even if it was too cold to enjoy it. It was sunny and pretty.smile

Sorry you have to work so much at night, but I'm glad you're getting things done that you like to do. This is always good.biggrin

Been away for a bit. lots of really real world intuding on my life.
Spent the weekend up at Ft. Hood having an alternatingly fun/miserable time. MOUT (Military Operations in Urban Terrain) training in a cinderblock town. Rat-a-tat-tat firing blanks out of my M249 SAW, practicing building entry via window and room clearing. Then spending the nights outside on the ground wrapped in a...

nothing really to update, but I feel like I should. life's been mostly the same deal with getting moved in and working a lot and fretting over the bike. I'm down to less than $20 in my back account and have been for the better part of a week. but I get paid again next week and I'm pretty well caught up on bills...so from...

Ok. I've been away for a few days. I have had the last three days off of work and have been crazy busy with getting moved into my new place (pics to be posted soonish) and getting accustomed to it (translation: drinking heavily and hanging out with my roommate). The place is taking shape and it's great to be out of familal dwelling! I love...

Your room is bigger and in better shape than mine. I have so much stuff and so little space. And i need to have asd much of my stuff around me as much as possible, even if i'm not using it... so i keep bringing more of my useless stuff up here from my mother's house and then just stuffing it into corners and under my bed. I just need it!
I wish i could fly around the store with little wings, sprinkling the comics over the happy geekgirls and boys. It's really more like huddled in one of the darker and colder corners of the store, surrounded by boxes and piles, counting and sorting. You can see my post to Pip on the dreadful details.

ok I talked to the stealership that is holding my motorcycle. I took it in to get non-engine problems dealt with and they called and told me to pick it up...so I get a cab from home and go out there and when I get on the bike to drive home, it won't start! mad now they start giving me bullshit about needing new sparkplugs and...

You always write the nicest things.smile I am confused about Valentine's Day. I'm not looking forward to it, but I can't decide whether I should go up to Austin to hang out or go to Corpus Christi to see my friend James. He has a beach house down there, which would be fun, but I don't want it to just be the two of us, ya know? I liked your idea about all us single TX SG peeps singing the Pinnochio song! Very good!biggrin

Hope you had a good weekend!kiss

i just went through some bullshit with my car. not the same deal, but it still sucked ass. in short, my brakes went out right before xmas while i was in a parking lot. bought a new master cylinder, but couldn't put it in cuz the frame was bent from a previous accident. got a notice that my car would be cited and impounded if it didn't move one mile in 72 hours, but i couldn't drive it a mile because there's no master cylinder in the car. aaa towed it one mile, a car dismantler place picked my car up and gave me $100 for it. as the towing guy was putting my car onto the ramp of the tow truck, it came flying backwards and smacked into the car that i am temporarily driving, which is not mine. i almost had a heart attack! sometimes i think life would be easier with out a car.

anyway, sorry for all the blabbing. i originally intended to simply sympathize with stupid car/motorcycle bullshit.

sleepy today. the drizzle wintery weather finally rolled in. Not so cold as it was this last weekend since we have skies of leaden grey now...and rain. not pouring just dreary drizzle of steady dripping sky. it's contribiting to my "winter" mood which I've managed to avoid most of this winter so far...mostly be being busy.
moving out of family dwelling and into an apartment...

12 hours of sleep will do wonders for your state of mind. smile

and I managed to time the sleep in total accident so that I am back on my "normal" schedule, which means I'll be up all night, since I work the overnight shift permanently now. As I figured, my job scheduled me for Saturday, which is the SG Burlesque night in Austin for which...

Quick update before I go away for the weekend. I think. Normally the week before drill I am getting called by my squad leader and the plt. guide and the plt. sgt. and the plt leader (who at the moment is a staff sgt...he's usually calling me because somehow I got designated plt. geek and have all the rosters on my laptop) and fire team...
