Finally got moved into the new place. It's a trailer! Lol. It's a lot nicer than I ever expected. Preconceptions deactivated.

Blah! Car shopping... it's funny because I actually kinda love the negotiation and the chase, but it's extremely exhausting. I'm in the market for a used hybrid SUV. I almost bought a 2009 Mazda Tribute Hybrid today. It's a limited release for California only, but I found one in Las Vegas that they would transport to me and it's lovely with incredibly low mileage... and...

I make the best guacamole. Lol. I also have a serious avocado addiction. I now plan to get very baked, rum dumb, and watch some House of Cards. That show is amazing. If you have Netflix, check it out!

Seeing someone so young in a wheelchair galvanized my resolve to go back to school. I'm going to start my Computer Science degree ASAP. There really isn't any time to waste. Already got a spouse tuition grant, applied and accepted to my online school, and declared my major. Next steps... transcript requests, credit transfer, and CLEP's. I'm excited for the challenge. I fucking love school.

Heading to Atlanta tonight to visit a friend in the hospital. She was in an ATV accident and is currently in a wheelchair, but physical therapy looks promising. I'm a little hesitant to go since I don't know her that well. We've only hung out once. I don't want it to be awkward... I think it will also bring back the memories of my mom's...

Went to Whole Foods today... that place is nuts. Literally. Matt's gonna make fresh cashew butter with our Omega juicer and I'm gonna make sandwiches with banana.. Mmmm... Got amazing produce too and found my new favorite green juice!

2 cucumbers
1/2 heart romaine
1/2 apple
1 lemon

Tastes like green lemonade.

So the military denied medical clearance for me to move overseas again. My husband got an assignment in Alaska, but now we can't go. I'm a little all over the place on this... but ultimately, I'm glad not to have to deal with the cold. Now I'm helping him make his State-side dream sheet. There are a lot of interesting possibilities... California, Florida, Las Vegas,...

I haven't been around here much, but life is good. I just got a job at GameStop; I start tomorrow. I'm excited.

My husband just got home from his second tour in Iraq. It's nice to have him here again, obviously. Four months goes by more quickly now that I've gotten used to living alone. He was gone 4 months, then 6, then 4. Including TDY's (shorter trips away basically), he's been gone half our marriage. Much as that sounds horrible, I'm kinda okay with it. Strange,...

I'm trying to decide if I'm an alcoholic. If so, do I want to change?

I never, ever drive while drinking.
I drink, on average, 6 days a week. I have 6-12 drinks a night.
I drink rum 99% of the time and expensive scotch or a bottle of Shiraz when the mood strikes.
I don't get "Hangovers", at least not the head-pounding, I-want-to-die kind...

Hello again everyone.
I'm trying to get caught up with all the lovely sets since I was inactive for quite awhile. I'll be around...
