I am trying this!!!!!!

Aside from my day yesterday which was crappy to say the least, to which I was accused of "losing my military bearing" from the SGM, even though I was pretty respectful for what I was thinking. Either way that is the biggest pet peeve in the military is that no matter if something doesn't make any sense, it is no ones right to question the order! It is very hard for me, I will be honest, because I have a lot of my own opinions and being outspoken sometimes IS NOT a good thing. I think it is, but doesn't mean it hasn't worked against me in the past! Oh well, all you can do is go with what you believe!

As I am typing this I am trying to upload a helicopter video that I took recently. If it works I am set and have tons of more video clips to put up. If it doesn't work I am not gonna put too much effort into trying!

I really have not that much to post, hence therefore my late posts. But I look at my site and it is boring with no new updates. I have been consolidating a lot of music and getting certain things together so I won't do it last minute before we ditch here!

To Jen Torgerson in Kuwait!!!!!! Chill the heck out!! You and Pavel have gotten PLENTY of press on my site from Kuwait, And I asked Pavel if she wanted me to hook you up along with her, and she said you would probably get mad. Besides, Atz man, your lover is already down there! Now, CHILL!!!! OK, now I am in trouble!

As I keep stalling to see if the video is done, the house is CROWDED around here. We have so many new people as units have been changing out and al the new Joes are wearing the new ACU's! This would be the new Army uniform that I don't have yet, and they are more like a green version of the Navy and Marine get up. This way we never have to have the brown desert uniform and the regular green uniform we wear in the states. The people wearing them all complain that it's HOT in those things over here. Looks like it. The DCU's we wear right now are not too bad! Anyway, you can tell the new units have a garrison attitude but will break in over the course of the deployment. The longer you are here most people treat this Hardship Duty for what it is......Hardship Duty!! That is why we get Hardship Duty pay. Doesn't always sound great when we say people bend the rules here and don't give and take the respect over here as seriously. Especially as the year goes on. A lot of people (most) are in that category, including myself at times! It must be the environment!

OK I don't have patience to wait for that video, so I will dig for pics! And I am enjoying a little Lionel Richie, for your information! "We were runnin........runnin with the night"

Later,
