I'm pretty much over this stupid country and this stupid war. I'm not even going to call this "war". We're merely occupying at this point. This is basically just one big waste of my 26th year of life. I was looking at pictures from before I deployed and now I'm poopy-faced! I miss having fun, and having time off work. I miss drinking and partying and boys! I want to wear my hair down, fuck this stupid little bun on the back of my head! Very vainly I miss wearing make up and cute outfits. Let's face it, ACUs don't look good on women. I want to feel pretty again.
Today is the 6 month mark of my deployment. Yup, 6 months ago I was standing in the pouring rain in the parking lot of the barracks at Fort Lewis, Washington, kissing my boyfriend goodbye. Totally literally too, because he decided a few weeks later he couldn't "handle" my absence for a year and dumped my ass. Who does that!? The losers I like to date, that's who!
The worst part of this being the 6 month point is that there are still 6 more months to go. I'm only half done with this crap. Sigh. I'm going to continue to look at pictures of me having fun with friends...
Hmm, all the pictures I've chosen to represent me having fun are me while drunk. Hmm... so I'll quit being a Debbie-Downer now and get back to the soldier shit, hooah.
Hey, I've seen the photos. You are not only pretty in all your gear but you are BADASS! That's something no amount of drinking will get you.
ReplyDeleteYou're halfway there.
Awww... thanks! That made my night!
ReplyDeleteHey cuz! We miss you here in the states. Almost Easter time -- remember the old Easter egg hunts with you, me, Laura and Dan? Usually ended up with either me or Dan pissed off cause all we got was crap!
ReplyDeletep.s. love the pictures of you in this post. I enjoy your drunk facial expressions. Actually, it looks like just one facial expression. Hang in there, at have fun while back home on leave.
