Desert Drama08:59 Aug 31 2009
Times Read: 561
It's unbelievable how much drama there is here. Seriously, I could write a story about my year here and it would be a New York Times Best Seller. Worsed of all is that it would all be true. I bet we could even make a movie out of it and it would be a box office smash. It would have everything; drama, comedy, action, adventure, romance, and yea that's it really. No mystery I'm afraid.
Today it was some "he said/she said" bull shit as well as some seriously petty squabling that caused me to have to wait to get parts I needed for the job I was working on. There was also that hillarious joke our SFC pulled. He wrote on the board that we were going to 24 hour ops again and a few people freaked out instantly getting all pissed off and crying. To bad he didn't wait longer to tell them it was just a mean joke. I for one thought it was funny.
I've also learned the the other first time deployees don't find it funny when I start rumors of us getting extended here. Cracked me and the SFC up.
Then you also have the cheater drama. Seriously it's not that hard to keep it in your pants for a year. And if you don't keep it there you should be prepared to get caught and except the consiquences for those actions. Some baby moma drama.
A bit of my team is better then your team drama. Point the finger drama. Who stole it drama. Whatever type of drama you like it's here. I seriously should take my cam to work everyday and record this shit. I could make a fortune off of it. I'm prety sure I'm going to write a story about this. It's some funny stuf.
Amused by revenge17:17 Aug 25 2009

Wow, I got my first revenge rating and it wasn't even that low. I got a rating less then a 10 by someone with a very bland and boring profile. It had no effort and this wasn't a newb to VR. So when I visited her profile and saw it, I left a message saying that I didn't feel there was nearly enough work on it for a high rating and to message me when something more then copy and pasting picture codes had been done and I'd come back to give a decent rating. So she rerated me the exact same rating again and left me an angry message. Well if you want people to rate you a ten instead of what it's actually worth, which I never do, the least you can do is rate them a 10. Duh! Now I'm laughing at you and I probably won't ever bother going back to your profile. Wow. LMAO
I should mention that I don't reveng rate, ever. Even if you leave me a one. Just don't expect a ten if yours isn't even worth shit.
My babies first ultrasound16:51 Aug 24 2009

My fiance is having her first ultrasound with our baby today. I'm kind of disheartened because I can't be there with her for it. I know I won't be able to see much at all at this stage, but still I really wish I could be there. It's very exciting. Atleast by the time I get back from the sandbox she'll only be about 3 months along. So I won't be missing most of these things. I love you baby and I'm glad we're having this baby together. Hugs and kisses.
Rollercoaster02:36 Aug 24 2009

Well now I seem to be on a downward slide with my rating. Since this new system has been put into effect I've seen my status go up, down, back up, down again, then jump up suddenly. It was just going up steadilly, now back down again. It's like a freaking rollercoaster. To be perfectly honest, I could not possibly care less then I do. Part of what determines your status and level is nothing more, in my opinion, then a popularity contest and that's not why I'm here on VR. So there you silly status and lelel points, I stick my tongue out at you and your silly rollercoaster. :P
Persecution01:32 Aug 24 2009
Times Read: 589
I'm often persecuted against for being pagan and more so when people learn more about my lifestyle even in these modern times. The other day I learned that there was a christmas activity getting banned because it had strong christian tones and offended atheists. My stance is that if something like that offends you then just don't participate. I raised my voice in defense of the christians right to carry on this activity and recieved ridicule by the christians in that group because I'm not christian. Just because I'm pagan doesn't mean that I cannot support the rights of other religions and it really upset me. Paganism has been strongly persecuted by christianity for years so I'd think they'd be grateful that a non christian would be willing to support them in thier rights to free worship. I want those rights myself so I do not wish to stifle any one elses rights. To me thier reaction was further persecution toward my beliefs and ultimately hurt thier stand on thier rights to continue thier activities. I just looked at them and said "well good luck then. Clearly you're all on your own." I just don't understand people. And for crying out loud, I do not worship the devil! How can I worship a being that I don't even believe in?
Cry me a freaking river.......then drown in it!!!!03:03 Aug 23 2009
Times Read: 599
This place turns more and more into junior high as we get closer to that magical time when they shove us all on a plane and send us back to the states. People are crying over some of the stupidest things I've heard of. And drama keeps building as feelings get hurt and promises get broken. Seriously people, we're in the freaking military! Why the hell can't everyone just get over themselves and act like soldiers!? I do got to say that at times it really makes me laugh my ass off. Like for example one guy had done something smart assed to another. So that guy got even by turning his mattress over when he was out. Didn't throw it on the floor or anything like that, just turned it upside down where it was. When the guy returned he threw the biggest bitch fit I've heard in a long time. My two year old doesn't even throw fits like that. He made such a huge deal over it that I thought something terrible had happend. When I found out what all the fuss was about I laughed hysterically. I just couldn't belive it. So I find myself constantly telling people "why don't you just cry me a freaking river........then drown in it!!!! Yea, I actually say that to these guys and the females as well. I think most of them badly need to grow up. Oh well. Not too much longer and this will all be over and I probably won't see most of these people again.
Back in Kuwait08:43 Aug 19 2009
Times Read: 609
Hey all, I'm now safely back in Kuwait. I completed my mission through Iraq and made it in one piece. Although I nearly kissed the truck infront of me once. One truck was peeling off in a different direction and I was instructed to keep going straight when it did. Ofcours it was big enough that I couldn't see the truck stopped infront of it and nobody had called out over the radio to announce that the convoy was haulting. So when it turned I was rolling up on it's location kind of fast and suddenly saw a parked truck. I hit brakes hard and turned the steering wheel kind of hard. Luckilly I made all the right moves and missed hitting the haulted truck...barely. Other then that and a few unexpected haults for long periods of time it was an easy rolling mission. Now I'm back at our base of operations and more then likely will be for the remainder of my time here over seas, which should only be a couple more months now.
Getting ready07:26 Aug 12 2009

Today I had my convoy brief and vehicle inspections. It was kind of a long day. Now I just have to get all my laundry washed up, pack my things and be ready to roll. I just hope there's a little time to do a tad gift shoping while I'm up in Iraq.
Leaving The Wire07:15 Aug 11 2009
Times Read: 619
Well here in the next day or two I'll be leaving the FOB to go on a mission. I'm glad to have the oportunity to get off the FOB for a while. The mission could last any where from a couple days to a couple weeks. Of course I'll be vigilant and keep my wits about me as I head through Iraq. The guy I'll be riding with is an alright guy, we get along prety well. So it shouldn't be a bad trip really. Back in a while.
Groundhog's Day06:59 Aug 05 2009
Times Read: 629
It seems like every day here is just a copy of the day before. Day in day out I do the same thing over and over again. It's so mondane. You know that song by NIN: Every Day is Exactly the Same? I can relate to that song. That's exactly how my life feels right now. I'm so glad it's getting closer to the end though.

I meant desert litterally. I'm not using it as a metaphore for VR, I mean I'm in the desert now on my deployment, it's on my profile. SFC stands for Sergeant First Class. Deployees means the other soldiers deployed with me.
