AnnaBelle

Is it you Annabelle? That I lost so long ago.
With golden hair, and sea green eyes.
Remember I would not let go, through all of their lies.
That day we said our goodbyes.

Is it you Annabelle? That I found not so long ago.
With golden hair, and sea green eyes.
Between all the cliches, and beyond the spies.
On that same day we both said hi.

Was it you Annabelle? Who I heard just a few ago?
With laughter in the air, and tears in our eyes.
It all started with hello, and ended on high.
With smiles dancing in our eyes,
they were not pint sized,
it was everything we had implied,
This day I think you are mine.

It is you Annabelle. That I lost so long ago.
with golden hair, and sea green eyes.
I hear the glee, I see the glow.
To you I cannot say no.
Who I heard just a few ago.
That I had lost so long ago.
It is you, I found not so long ago.

...it's what's for breakfast?

Ode to Future Friends and Lovers

Beware
pray, abide by all laws three
or plan on cab being hailed for thee.

No glance, how small
or pee will fall

and count the stalls
from the walls

and above all,
no call.

Surprise surprise!

Well. They took my truck away. So now the 4 of us at CIF are crowding in a humvee. Soon probably, they will be taking my cell phone away. Which will hurt me terribly. I wont be able to talk to my sone but once a week, maybe. Although it's not like I talk to him all that often as it is. But now no one can call me at all, and it is will have to be up to me to find time to get to the phone booth to call back to the states. I'll adapt, and get use to it. No real big deal. It all sucks pretty bad but what can we do? I am at war right?

Well today we sent up some camo netting outside of our hooches so we could have a shaded area with some tables and chairs to relax by. It was nice. I offered to get get some Popeyes, yes there's a Popeyes in Iraq, and stopped by the PX picked up some Becks N/A Beer, and some Futurama vids. When I came back, to my astonishment the netting was decorated with happy birthday ribbons, confetti, balloons, and Sgt A got me a gift. I was so shocked and happy. So we relaxed, I put on a music mix (Amos Lee, Tyrone Wells, Michael Buble, Ben Harper, Mat Kearney, and Joseph Arthur) that I call Sleepy Time Mix, ate some chicken, biscuits, had some near beer and smoked a cigar. It was a definite good time had by all. MSG Garcia was there, Sgt A, Shepherd, and Major Opala. Thanks guys it was awesome, I will never forget it.

Updates from Afar

As you can see I have updated quite a few things today. After looking at Marvel's blog last night (and I strongly suggest you check it out), I noticed that I badly needed some updating. And although I felt some loyalty to my older simpler blog, with the new technology available how could I refuse? I changed the way it looked, added a survey, some more links, and will add pictures a bit later. I am excited with the new changes! I will leave the survey up for a week to vote, and a week after to view the results. So keep checking back!

Today is going ok, I woke up early early this morning, 2:45 to be exact feeling sick to my stomach. I got that "oh shit, if I don't make a run for it now I am going to hurl right here" feeling, but breathed through it. My left shoulder has been hurting me for quite some time and that didn't help any that early in the morning. I hurt it working out, and I don't quite have full range of motion in it yet, I think I just pulled the tendon though I am not quite sure. I went to sick call to check it out and they said to stay off of it for another two weeks. So when it's healed I will be back in the gym!

I joined a flag football team and we have practice every day. Two days on 1 day off. First game is August 15th. I am very excited. I cannot wait. After the game I will make sure to give you all the ESPN update on what happend. Quarter by quarter. :)

Bitchy Festerson

Of all the things I could complain about, and those who know me, and where I am at in my life right now, know I most difinitly can. But this is different. Let me explain.

I heard on the radio two songs from a band I thoroughly enjoy. Linkin Park. I loved their first album; when their second album came out there was some anticipation that they had changed their style, of which I think they did not. The second album I really really like too. It wasn't as ground breaking for me as the first was but it was still decent none-the-less.

I heard two songs on the radio and being where I am, I figured what the hell, purchase the damn thing it can't be bad, hell so far so good right? I rip the cd to my itunes and begin playing, what I will call the worst "ROCK/ALTERNATIVE" album I have EVER HEARD IN MY LIFE. It is terrible and doesn't represent the band at all. Why they even created this cd is beyond me. Every track sounds like an entirely different style of music than what they have done in the past, and for lack of better work, pussy.

Linkin Park, you have lost me. I even thought the songs on the radio were bad but I was giving you a chance. Linkin Park, I want me $12.99 back please. I should have downloaded it. So I could delete it. Forever.
