heh. Oh man, the birthday was a-rocking.
The liver is pretty good. I mean, I debauch so rarely now that I bounce back pretty quickly.
Was just a very cool day. I'll journalize it soon enough.

josephene:
You're working at home a little much lately, huh? Henry is not feeling neglected is he?
*GYFS*
*GYFS* I'm trying to think of something witty to say, but I've got nothing. Sorry.
The lovely Josephene will be back sometime soon I reckon. She's taking some time to...process, for lack of a better word, what's happened. She's as well as can be expected and knows about all the love for her in here. Bye for now.

catiedid:
maybe if we just keep putting lots and lots of love on her page she will eventually come back! 
josephene:
I think...I THINK, she may be back...thanks, baby.
I have no words for the last week or so. I grieve for friends lost, and for friends who have to endure that loss. You have my love.
anderswolleck:
thank u
So, I started a new job when I got up here. "Section Chief". My job is all about people: making sure their training is up to date, making sure they make scheduled appointments, make sure they're recognized when they do good things and disciplined when they fuck up, writing performance reports and awards, ensuring morale...crap like that. Theoretically I'm supposed to be doing this job...

ANOTHER party? Wow...don't you think we may be overdo'in it?

*GYFS* I started playing soccer again. Historically I've played on losing teams on base, and that trend is continuing now. We're not all bad mind you, we just aren't a good team. Not enough practice, too much work. We could be a good team, not great but good, but for now we're fighting for ties.
My jaw has been bothering me lately. I find myself pushing...

If there is somebody in your life doing things that you don't like, do something about it. But if you refuse to, don't put it on somebody else to fix your situation for you. If you've made the shit sandwich, only you can decide to either put it down or keep eating it.

update: I had a roommate in Korea, a good guy who had a very difficult childhood. I never got the whole story of what it was like for him growing up, but it wasn't what you'd wish on somebody, that's for sure. He decided at one point to change his life, and through that process decided to join the Air Force. Although he doesn't...

you do the best you can, whatever you think that is. Just be the best you you feel you can be, and they find that a comfort, in asmuch as they can take comfort now :::shrug::: at least, looking back that's how I feel it in retrospect and try to do it for other people now.
josephene:
yeah, what trash said...we've all been there, and being on the other end teaches us how to react to those who are going through something like this. My heart aches for him, and I'm sure there's a feeling of helplessness that's lurking inside of you. Find comfort in the fact that if he needs you, he'll come to you. I'm sorry for your loss, too, honey.
*GYFS*
*GYFS* Well, long wekend ahead, and I have it pretty much planned out. Mow the lawn (Friday), see "Star Wars" (Friday), get rid of the squirrel(s?) I have living in my attic (Friday), hang a ceiling fan in my bedroom (Friday), hand out and drink (Saturday, Sunday, Monday).

It's so much fun to ride a motorcycle down the Seward Highway south of town around midnight or later at midsummer, on a weeknight. There's plenty of light out, but there's relatively no traffic.

Okay, bad reference. I haven't been here much lately. Perhaps I don't have much to say. Or maybe it's the fact that everyone I need to talk to from here I talk to in the non-SG world. I know, *GASP!!!!* and all that. Non-SG world?!?!?!?!? Oddly enough there is one outside these pink and grey walls. There was a time, although...

Feeling a little better. I'm not a 100% yet, but I'm getting there. One lesson to take from this: if you put food in your mouth that's too hot to chew, swallowing it isn't the answer. I think that may have opened the door to my little cold. Or maybe I'm just a fucktard looking for excuses.

LOL!!! You tell them honey...tell them to quit keeping this girl up so late. She needs her beauty sleep more than evah now.
*GYFS*
*GYFS* I've been told I haven't been around much, and apparently I haven't. 7 days between postings is terrifically unacceptable. Even if I don't have anything to say. Like now. Oh, I do have one thing. I got tagged to baby sit some of our younger Airmen this weekend in their dorm, making sure they didn't shit in the microwaves or punch holes in the wall....

The haunted mansion at Disney is some scary crap. It's funny to think back on it all...I was there for a band trip and I was scared of EVERYTHING back then, and some of my friends who had been on it before, talked me through the whole thing, assuring me that I wouldn't be scared because there was nothing left to scare me. Well, yeah, as you can guess, that wasn't the case. I would like to go back now that I'm braver and see if it still gets to me. As long as they didn't add a wizard of oz portion at the end, I should be good to go!
