Okay, I need help with a decision. Right now I'm registered for this:

10-11:15: Theories of Personality (3 credits)
11:30-12:45: Choir (1 credit)
1-2:15: History (3 credits)
2:30-3:45: Math (3 credits)
4-6:30: Drawing (3 credits)

12 credits are needed to be full time. This is suck. So I'm thinking of changing it to:

11:30-12:45: Sensation and Perception(?) (3 credits)
1-2:15: History (3 credits)
2:30-3:45: Theories...

I'm a little nerdy I would rather have Math than Sensation and Perception. And I love Choir. I'm probably absolutly of no help here. Sorry, but good luck!

Dude, I'm watching a thing on the Science channel and they're studying T-Rex skeletons (there are two that are pretty much complete) and it looks like they were actually scavengers! Their little arms are worthless for grabbing prey, which is different from other known predators, and their teeth, while great for crushing bones, aren't very good at tearing flesh (like velociraptors). And they had the...

That would have been cool to watch.

I'm gonna drive up to your place around 1:30/2pm. So yes. My flight isn't till 11:30pm. You'll be sick of me by the time we have to go to the airports.

It's so unbelievably nice to talk to someone so far away and hear their voice and have it feel like everything is normal. But then there's the saying goodbye, and the not knowing when you'll be able to talk again. Ouch.

Also, only finals left for school. Hooray!

Doesn't being grown up suck?

Well, if my experiences were anything like what he's got right now, there will be something closer to a routine when everyone gets all situated in wherever his final destination is.

When I was in Germany, Qatar, and Balad, I couldn't really get in touch with home. Once I settled in in Radwaniyah, I was good.

Trevor said they won't know if their address is right until like the 14th.

If I don't get out this weekend, I'll head up there super early on the 15th and we can go shopping for things to send them. Hopefully my cat won't terrorize your kitties too much.
poolboy6:
I don't know why I was surprised. Maybe because I've only ever seen pictures of your face, and maybe that one of you and the biff at the Army Ball and at the time I didn't know how tall he was... I dunno. Remember I'm old, bordering on senility.

There is internet in Kuwait!!! Slow, bad internet, but enough for an email. biggrin

I am trying to get up from the round couch and from under his blanket, but then Trevor is leaving and I suspect it will make the situation worse... mayhap Sid can come hole up under the blanket with me.

I love emails. I'm checking my inbox every 5 minutes waiting for...

For some reason, I thought you'd be shorter.

I try so hard not to notice, and I try so hard not to care; I try so hard not to know that you're not here.

WTF?!?

Level 35 is a bitch.

hemidemisemiquaver means????

I'm not going to cheat. I'm an engineer, I'm not supposed to be good at vocabulary. It's pretty addictive though.

Another funny one:

sesquipedalian = using long words
dark_cabal:
I was able to get to level 27 before I had to stop, but that site is addicting... very addicting.

What's worse than your boyfriend leaving on your anniversary? Two days thinking that he might not be leaving till February... and then finding out that no, in fact, he still has to leave on your anniversary. I didn't think it was possible to make this worse.

well it would have been a laugh or two, to actually do something like that.
i might be visiting on the 23rd if i can get the days off.
alkaholic23:
happy birthday david.

Okay, so the last chance of him leaving later didn't work. He's going on our one year anniversary, and the really shitty part is that it's just him. He's the only good computer guy they have so they're sending him out before everyone else to get things set up.

I want to die.

sorry to hear it. frown
alkaholic23:
i know it's easier said than done. it's like saying cheer up, when someones world is falling apart around them. believe me i know. i wish it was easy. i honestly don't know what i'd do if i were in your shoes, i don't think i could even fathom the scenario. i wish you only the best.

dave is shipping out with trevor, right?

The rest of David's family is out here. They're great and all, but I kind of wish I didn't have to share him right now. Last night I broke down and just started bawling on him... I really can't believe he's leaving. I only have a handful of days left with him. And then nothing for over a year. I don't know if I can...

I wish I had some sort of wisdom that I could say right now that would give you hope. I'll try,

When someone is that far away from you it can definitely suck. But, every now and then you are going to realize that as you think about and love him, he's thinking about and loving you right back. That's amazing don't you think? That someone thousands of miles away can be missing and thinking of you?

Fuck teh army. Fuck it hard.
alkaholic23:
i don't think you'll forget his voice. i think you might miss it and dave will miss yours. i think you'll be writing and talking to one another more than you might think. i think your a strong lady and this will be hard on you, but i know you'll pull through. for the remaining days before his deployment, try not to stress on the day he goes, but enjoy the time you've got left with him.
