Happy 4th

   I just got done reading Biz’s July 1st post.  And I just had to write something on mine.  I’ve been gone far too long from this little addiction.  (I guess its not too much of an addiction if I can stay away for almost a month.)  But, Biz is right about the friends we made while in Korea.  They were/are some of the best people I have known.  And that is saying something.  And I miss all of the people I called friends.  And, one more thing while I’m on this topic, Piss off, Biz.  Feel better now.  LOL

   The past three weeks have been, well, boring.  Even by my normal standards.  And tomorrow, I start in processing into the 101st.  No specific unit, yet.  And truthfully, I can’t wait to get back to work.  I can only take so much down time, and I passed my limit last week sometime.  So, needless to say, I’m anxious to start and get to my new unit.

   Today is the 4th of July, America’s birthday.  Tonight there will be fireworks all over the place, both personal (with the attendant hospital visits), and professional (with the crowds.)  I really love to get my own to fire off, but don’t normally have real good luck with them.  I’ve had Roman Candles shoot out the wrong end at me, (Yes, I was holding it correctly.) Butterflies (You know, the spinning things, some people call them flowers, or blossoms.) have jumped up into the air and attacked me.  And my personal favorite, the sky shell that did a u-turn and chased me for half a block before exploding right behind me.  So, this year, I’m going to play it safe and watch other people light the stuff off, from a safe distance.  Of course, that still isn’t any guarantee I’ll actually be safe from predatory fireworks.  We shall see.

   I wish you all well, and that you have a great 4th, wherever you are.  And I have decided to continue posting this blog.  And, I plan on updating at least once a week.  But chances are it’ll be more often.  Especially while I’m going through the stupidity of in processing.  (Something that should only take 3 days made into a 2 week ordeal.)  

   I’ll see ya’ll later.
