Craziness

If your reading this, then I assume you survived all the holidays that have occurred so far. Congrats! I barely survived Christmas it felt like, the only gift I received sucked, visiting Vx's family sucked, decorations on the blimp didn't cooperate, and neither did the tail rudder.

But, the dream I've been trying to give up on, it seems to be coming true now. I finished school 6 years ago, and now I'm getting to start doing that kind of work? Seriously?! WTF!

It's not exactly what I wanted to do, but its the closest I've gotten to it. It's frustrating, but also a big sigh of relief.

I can't bitch about my husband's hobby anymore, either. If it wasn't for it, this opportunity would have never came.

They say good things come to those who wait, well that is very true!

Happy New Year!

Random Tuesday Thoughts

Another Tuesday, another RTT! *happy dance* It's kinda sad that the highlight of my AM hours is participating in a meme. Oh well, it could be much worse!

My weekend revolved around hockey. A statement that would've never entered my mind until a month or two ago.

I'm sure Sunday didn't help out much, I hung out in the media area. Talk about a view! They sit in a section on the upper level, which is closed to the general public during games, it's located near the center, and you can see everything (except the face smashing the glass, blood, & fights that I normally see where the blimp crew sits). We normally sit behind one of the goals, so we can only see what happens on the other end on the jumbo screen. Hearing the play-by-play and seeing the action at the same time also helped me to understand what's going on a lot better.

The team was away Friday & Saturday nights, so I listened to the games online. On their way home Saturday night, they had a bus fire AGAIN! This is the second bus fire they've had this season, they learned a lot from the last "fire drill" that everything was saved this time. In the last one, the broadcasting equipment and some personal items were lost. On a coach's show they do on Monday nights, the broadcaster joked about running halfway home w/all his gear in hand so it was safe this time. None of the players lost their teeth this time either, so that one player will still have his two (fake) front teeth for Christmas!

Also, a homemade sign at the game Sunday: 
(Team's full name) 2
Bus company 0
The (team) is on fire!

Were debating on getting an RC vehicle, put a bus body on it, either have flames pop up or smoke pellets activate on the ice, then have the blimp fly over and dump "water" (blue streamers) on the bus.

I haven't bought any Christmas gifts, a friend sent me a card, but I still haven't returned the favor. I suck, and I really don't want to go to any stores this close to Christmas.

We might go to Vx's aunt's house for Christmas, there's a game that night, so whatever we do, we'll have to be done by 6 pm or so.

Are the holiday's over yet?

1. What is the best gift you have ever received or given? from Jessica Lynn Writes
Not sure, the tv was great at the time, dvd player was neat when I finally got an adapter for it, nothing else from Christmas really sticks out for me.

2. Do you celebrate holidays differently when your loved one is deployed/gone or do you keep tradition? from The Albrecht Squad

N/A

3. If you celebrate Christmas, do you put an angel, star or something else on the top of your tree?

It's kinda hard to put anything on top of a Little Debbie Christmas Tree cake

4. What are your three favorite websites?

Facebook, Twitter, & Yahoo. Some other close calls are  Philo & Foursquare. Philo and Foursquare lets you check into things (philo for tv, foursquare for physical places). I have my gmail and what little, if any aol mail forwarded to my yahoo address, so I can check (mainly) 2 email inbox's at once while checking out tv listings & other things.

5. On your man do you prefer… boxers, briefs or boxer briefs? Or commando? (yeah, I’m starting to get desperate for questions!)
While Vx never wears boxers, I've dated guys that wore boxers and I liked them. Briefs don't look right on men in my opinion, so I guess boxer briefs are my second favorite.

Have a great weekend!

Uh, Christmas

I hate trying to buy my husband gifts. He usually wants something I feel is too expensive, or he doesn't like what I get him. I still haven't got him a birthday (September) or anniversary (October) gifts for this year, or a Christmas gift. Last year, I bought him pants for Christmas that he hated, he griped about needing some, but he wouldn't go out and buy any, so I did. Granted, one pair was not what I expected, the other's he called "gay looking" so I returned them and he never bought any pants or anything else to replace them. For our anniversary/his birthday, I bought him a RC Tank. First, I got the wrong color, so we went to the store & exchanged it for a color he liked better. Then he broke it, he keeps saying he needs to send it in to get it fixed, it still sits on top of the tv, broken.

I didn't like all the gifts he's purchased for me, either. One birthday, I got a guitar, while its neat, I don't care to learn how to play it, and I don't want it sitting around if its not going to be played. One Christmas, I got some sound equipment "so I can record demos" as he put it. I received that a few years too late! Now both sit in his storage unit, w/many of out wedding gifts as well.

Yes, wedding gifts from 3 years ago. Things that aren't needed right now since we still live w/my mom!

For Christmas, I want Vx to get a real fuckin' job, so I can have what I want for Christmas, to live in my own place like a real married couple!

I can't believe this is still our life 3 years later!

Random Tuesday Thoughts

So last Tuesday's hockey game wasn't as much fun as the last cheap beer night, but it was still a good game. Friday's game was the start of a 3 game stand w/this one team, last time both teams played each other, the other team slaughtered our team (idk if it had anything to do w/our team wearing special jerseys that night or not), so I'm glad they paid them back by winning the first 2 games in the series. I listened to the second game online since it was at the other team's home, so I got to hear my facebook friend again. The third will be played tonight at home. Our team has won the last 6 games in a row, & the last 8 out of 9 games (the pink jersey tops weren't lucky for them either, could this be a sign?). 

My sister is driving my mom nuttier than she already is, lord help me! Luckily this sister lives far, far away and no one has heard her say anything about visiting for Christmas. Mom's bf said something about her moving back here, I believe mom's reaction was NO!!!!!!!!!!! 

See why I'm her favorite?

Also, our brother is dating her first ex-husband's sister. They've been together for a while now, it still cracks me up! Our brother lives closer to our sister than mom & I do, so he can deal with her & her craziness. 

Incase you were wondering about my Christmas stuff, no presents have been purchased yet, I won't be making any, the meal will probably be at the same place we had Thanksgiving at (Chinese buffet) since there's a game that night as well. I think the last time a Christmas tree was really set up was 4 years ago. That first non-tree year, between starting to walk again after breaking my femur & a severe ice storm in our area, we were lucky to have presents, & I did have to purchase most of the ones I gave out in January (no car+unable to walk=buying gifts difficult). After that, the cat w/her anry ways, was the main motivation and still is.

Have no fear, when presents start appearing, a Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cake will be placed on top. It's a tradition I started about 10 years ago, my parents had presents wrapped up and sitting by a window, but no tree up. The tree did finally go up, then when my aunt felt bad about hosting a Christmas meal w/o a tree, I brought the Little Debbie tree to her house, placed it on the edge of her computer desk, the presents people brought were sitting beside & under it, so they were placed "under a tree" that year.

The club Vx flies with is having their Christmas party as a nearby buffet later this week. I guess I'll get to meet some more wives that put up w/the same "toys" that I do. Of course, most if not all of the other members are rich, &/or live in their own houses w/garages, while we live in a 2-bedroom apartment w/my mom & her bf. The members that are kids, one of their parents is also a member.

Six Word Saturday


I suck, I haven't played along in a LONG time! If you've never played along before, its very simple, describe something in six words. My six words:

Who knew I would like hockey!

Two months ago, I never would have thought I would be attending almost every home game for this hockey team, let alone helping to promote them and Vx's club (they fly the blimp and indoor planes at the games). Watching the games have been so much fun! The one home game I couldn't attend, I listened to it online, which ended up in overtime with a 12 round shoot-out. If I'm home later tonight, I plan on listening to the away game as well.

1. What do you see your life like in 10 years?
I seem to have a knack for PR, so maybe I'll be doing that or some kind of social media, whatever we do, hopefully it'll be more stable for the both of us than what our life is like now.

2. What do you like most about your job?
At my former job, I loved the variety and getting to stay up all night. My "current job" as a somewhat-house wife/apparent PR  person, well, I guess the same thing, staying up all night, doing a variety of tasks.



3. What are three things you do every day, no matter what day it is?
Play with my phone, use the bathroom, pet P.



4. What would you do with an extra five hours in your day today?
Sleep? There are some tv shows online I'd like to watch, but can't seem to find the time or whatever, but idk if that would take 5 hrs or not.



5. What is your favorite Christmas (or whichever holiday  you celebrate) cookie recipe (please share!)?
Sugar cookies decorated for the holidays, frosting, sprinkles, something festive (red/green), I eat sugar cookies year round, just with different (if any) decorations, so its not really anything different.

Me? Hockey? PR? Wow!

I wrote a little bit about this yesterday, but I'll get more into it here. So on facebook, I've been posting things about the hockey team that Vx has been flying a blimp for. Well, guess who has noticed?

The General Manager! Wow! He's not the only staff member, one night I didn't feel like coming to the game, so I stayed home and listened to it online. I said something on facebook about it, and the broadcaster friended me! We exchanged a few messages, I told him what we've been doing at the games and he told me where he sets up (an area I have access to, but most other people don't). As a former "I want to work in radio!" geek, I haven't quit screaming inside about this "friendship" since.

Back to the GM, I've posted pictures that were taken on my phone, and tagged the team, venue, Vx & I in them (the RC club doesn't have a page), he really likes that, said something about giving him lots of free PR. I don't feel like I'm putting tons of effort into all of this, like I told him, I was just posting stuff at 3 am out of boredom.

Vx now wants me to take his nice professional-like camera to the games for some really good quality pics (instead of Blackberry pics). He also keeps telling me to go hang out w/the broadcaster, I just don't feel any time would be a good time, I assume he talks before game (I tuned in part way through the 1st period), does play-by-play during the games, and talks during most of the breaks and afterwards. Vx told me not to worry about the blimp, they can handle the parts I do. I think I would like just watching him work, but it would be nice to ask questions as well, and he may want to interview me on-air or something. I also don't want to give him the impression that I'm stalking him.

Another thing that kinda concerns me, I know very little about hockey, I attended and watched my first real game about a month ago, other than those Ducks movies and the scenes from The Simpson's, Friends, & other shows that have shown hockey, my exposure has been minimal. I know some terms, but not what they really mean (like Icing), which also concerns me.

Guess I should research hockey, and hope it makes some sense. Maybe study some PR stuff online while I'm at it, get some better promotion ideas than what I came up with on my own (stuff I've seen others do that caught my attention, some things I learned studying broadcasting as well).

This could also be a stepping stone for other things as well, idk, but word of mouth can be a good thing.

Maybe my dream will finally come true...

Word(less?) Wednesday

My week in pictures:


Saturday there was a hockey game:

The blimp flying before the game 




Fans were encouraged to bring a teddy bear to toss on the rink after the home team's first goal, all the bears were collected for Toys for Tots. 




 The mascot's 4 wheeler wouldn't start, so instead of doing his spinning trick, he walked around on the ice during the break.



Someone on the other team got his stick stuck in the net, when players lose equipment, it has to stay put until the whistle is blown.




Monday I visited Catoosa, OK to see the Blue Whale's Christmas lights

 Side view, personally I love how the lights on the top reflect off the water


 View of the mouth, and the baseball cap


 Noah's Ark in the parking lot



Tuesday night was another hockey game, only one picture I took turned out good enough to post here

The blimp approaching for landing


In the future, more hockey game pictures will be seen, I'll explain more in another post.

Random Tuesday Thoughts

Yes, its been forever, but I'm back! Miss me?

Anyways, for starters, I LOVE TETRIS! Which means I LOVE TETRIS WAFFLES!!!

Idk how, but I broke the hole punch! Coupons are punched out, ready for tomorrow, but its getting caught when you try to open it back up again, & at least one piece is missing. 

I went from not giving a shit about hockey to loving it! Who knew being the "crew chief" for a blimp would do that to me?

Speaking of hockey, I didn't make the home game Friday, so I listened to it online. I need to learn more than one players name! I'm sure knowing some more terminology would help as well. I posted something on Facebook about listening to it online, the broadcaster friended me, and we exchanged a few private messages. I told him my husband was one of the pilots and I did the coupons and decorations, he told me where he's set up (an area I have access to, but most people don't). My inner broadcaster geek is screaming OMG! OMG! OMG! while the wife side is asking, "He's telling you where his private section is at, does he know your married?"

The neighboring town now has a leash law for cats! I told P if she runs away from home, don't go in that direction. We've also eliminated that town off our maybe we should move there list. When we tried to leash train her, she low-crawled. She definitely earned her "Army brat cat" nickname during that time.

I visited P's vet office yesterday (its in the other town we live near the city limits of), since mom has a mailbox in that town, and doesn't always make it that way as often as she should, I offered to pick up her mail. When I  stopped by her work to pick up the key, I told mom's boyfriend, "I'm picking up medicine for your other girlfriend." he gave me a weird look, I said the white furry one he calls Fido, he said, "Oh, that bitch!" I corrected him, "You mean that pussy?" I think mom's head exploded, hearing her boyfriend talk about bitches and her daughter talk about pussy.

It's cheap beer night at the hockey game tonight, last time the crowd made the game so much fun, so tonight should be the same way.

Pics for the week 11/25-12/1

...or Wordless Wednesday (a few days late), I don't know, but I thought I might try this out, since I'm not much of a writer these days.

My husband's model airplane/helicopter club have been flying a blimp at hockey games, while I'm not a pilot, I am part of the crew, Vx calls me the "Crew Chief" while I tell people that "I do the paperwork" (we drop coupons f/the blimp & I placed most of the streamers on there).

Players warming up, this was a special night, the team wore pink jerseys that were auctioned off for a local breast cancer charity after the game.


I asked & received approval from the hockey team management to decorate the blimp pink for this game, this was before its first flight that night. The other pilots liked the idea in general, but not the blimp "looking girly" part.


The black mustang is a special edition car w/a pink stripe & ribbon in the back window. The wheels on the "Ice Girls" truck, the Mustang & the mascot's 4 wheeler are coated w/something that helps them drive on the ice w/o crashing into the walls.


Vx also added blue/white Christmas lights to the bottom, the team's usual colors are blue and red, so we bought these and removed the snowflakes. We had to modify the streamers lengths for safety, but the end result looked great!


Guess who missed us? Guess who we missed as well?


Also, during a trip to Target, I discovered a new name for fingerless gloves.



Hopefully, next week, I'll have a better clue about how to do this, I just thought it might be interesting to show pics f/my Blackberry that are part of my everyday life.

Hope you enjoy!

MilSpouse Friday Fill-in




1. Were you named after anyone?
Not intentionally, when I was about 12 years old, my social studies teacher assigned this report about our families, I have a somewhat-famous relative that has a museum nearby, so I went to visit it for research, we were reading a family tree, and found that his grandma had the same first and maiden name as I do! A curator saw my notes and gave me a poster that they used to have up on a wall of my cousin.


2. What color, if any, are your toenails usually painted?
I haven't painted them in a while, when I was keeping them painted, they were usually silver, red, pink, or whatever matched my outfit at the time.


3. How do you flush a public toilet? Hands? Feet? Something else?
The last several I remember using were automatic, or I had to push the button to flush them. I haven't used my feet since hurting my leg, so I use my hand.


4. When you were a little kid, which TV character did you have a crush on?
The green/white power ranger. Tommy was so cute!


5. Let's say you had to lose one of your five senses (sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell).  Which one would you choose? Why?
Smell, I already go without that sense whenever my nose gets stopped up, while I realize smell also affects taste, taste goes along with eating, something you have to do to survive without a feeding tube or iv.

1. A different twist on last week’s question. This week, the first question is: what’s the nicest thing a MILSPOUSE has ever done for you? (brought to you from navy_smurfette)
At Warrior's family day over a year ago, one stood in line with me. I've had some nice comments on my blogs and twitter from some other milspouses as well. I don't encounter fellow milspouses much in the real world since we're not located near any bases & Vx's unit is several thousand miles away.


2. How often do you drive faster than the speed limit?
Since most roads and streets around me don't have speed limit signs posted (or I keep missing them), probably not very often.


3. Did you have a nickname in school? If so, what was it?
One kid I went to school with called me Crash after I had a fender-bender, he called me that off and on for years. At my tech school, a male student went by Crash, so it was a conversation starter for us, and we did end up dating for a few months after that. I also had a co-worker in the last 3 years call me Crash after my last car wreck.


4. If your life was a book, what would the title be and how would it end?
no frekin clue


5. Look back (in your planner if you have one) to September 14th… what did you do that day?
The only thing I have listed is my birth control (mine's not the daily kind).

1. What’s the nicest thing a stranger has ever done for you?
One instance that comes to mind was right after my accident, Vx & I were at Steak 'n Shake, he had a FLW sweatshirt on, I had my pink Army shirt on, when we were getting ready to leave, we found out that someone that left before us paid for our meal! We didn't know if it was the wheelchair (thought I was injured while deployed), or the clothes, but it was a nice gesture.

2. If you are having a hard time going to sleep, what do you do to help yourself?
Sometimes music helps me, but it can also wake me up more, so I have to be careful w/what I listen to, reading books for me can also go either way, but playing games on my phone while laying in bed seems to work. 


3. Name something that makes you wish you were a kid again.
That "time of the month" I guess, I don't remember anything from my childhood that I liked so well that I want to be a kid again.


4. What is something you never believed until you experienced it?
Ghosts, never believed in them until last summer ('09) when I kept seeing a ghostly figure at my job. This is also the same job I worked at for about 60 nights straight, but I always saw it at a time of night when no one else was around, and it never looked anything like my co-worker there.


5. What can’t you say “no” to?
Not much, if anything. I've learned over the last few years how to say no, I used to be a people pleaser, almost always saying yes to everything, but my job slowed that down, and the accident really helped me to say no to things.

Not this again?!?! (AKA Update #2)

Like I ended update #1, when it rains, it pours! Now for all the Army bs...

So when my husband transferred to a new unit near the west coast, it sounded wonderful, no more deployment bs (since they don't deploy), Vx would be teaching others chemical warfare (his passion), and the unit is located near his dad & sister (in other words, he'd get to visit them on the Army's bill). In typical Army fashion, its not working out that way.

The person who got him into the unit was transferred to another unit, so her helping Vx out is gone, and the new person doesn't seem to give a shit. At his board w/warriors, he was recommended for promotion, but they didn't count all his points, so he was short. Those points were counted at the last board, but someone on that board for whatever reason didn't think Vx should be recommended for promotion. When Vx talked to his new commander a while back, he said he was recommended, but according to the email, Vx wasn't. The next board is in December, we'll see how that one goes. To be in this unit, your supposed to be an E5 or higher, Vx is an E4. He also needs to attend WLC and some other classes to stay in the unit, but the new commander won't schedule those classes for him, either. Also, someone (no clue who) decided to put Vx on a permanent profile after his surgery. He was told he can't keep his MOS w/that profile, so either that needs to get fixed, or he'll have to change MOS's (for real this time) and change units (AGAIN! This will be his 6th or 7th unit in 3 years!).

Since he doesn't know what's going on w/the Army shit, its putting so many other things in our lives on hold, again. If he gets a new job, how will that look if he has to immediately take 3 months off for his classes? What if it ends up becoming the same fiasco as last year (sent to take a class for a month, to only return home 3 days later or they try to keep him longer than a month)? What if that job for the Army he was told about a while back actually becomes a reality? It would be for about 5 months, but it would still screw up many things. I know he'd still like to get deployed, but I don't see that happening. He volunteered for deployment 3 years ago, he still hasn't been, so why would he be sent now? Army rather send someone for their gillionth time than someone who's never been, and doesn't have kids.

What Big Events? (AKA Update #1)

I guess this could be an update post from this one. Right about the time Big Event #1 started, I still hadn't heard f/my boss, so I called her, several times. One of those times someone picked up her phone and hung up on me (I assume her, but I'm giving the benefit of a doubt). I left her several voice mails that were never returned. Vx called his mom (who I work with), she said the boss wasn't calling me because I told her I didn't want to work in the arena, so she wasn't going to call me to work other posts. I SWEAR I NEVER SAID THAT TO HER! Either my memory's a lot worse than I thought it was, or she's making this up so there's more jobs available for her relatives. Before summer, my boss's sisters never worked third shift, this summer they did. A family friend of my boss (old pervert) used to get quite a few hours, his were cut back so much that he handed in his badge, uniform tops, etc. A guy that used to work on occasion started renting a house f/the boss, so she started giving him tons of hour (I assume so he can continue to pay rent) instead of others. She even cut back on MIL's hours after she took off one weekend for her high school reunion.

Big Event #2 started a few days ago, and still nothing. Most people that work there have other jobs, and they use their vacation days for Big Event #1, so that leave some openings for Big Event #2, but I still haven't heard anything from her. This show actually uses the heat settings, but I guess she still "forgot" about me.

While this one event in November is not technically big, because of what the event is about (guns, knives, etc.), it does involve lots of workers. I bet she doesn't "forget" me when its time for that show! But, it's always freezing cold at the door she has me sit at, so who the fuck knows.

3 years ago (before event #2 was held at my job), the plan was for me to get a "real" job after event #1, but I had my car wreck during it, and wasn't fully recovered f/it until summer time, when work picks up again (it slows down after big events until April or May). The plan kept rolling over to after the big events every year since then, but it never happened for various reasons.

This year, it has to happen for real!

When it rains, it pours! Stay tuned for Update #2 to find out what else is going on.

1. Are you a night owl or an early bird?
Night owl! I usually work third shift and I love it!

2. What makes you jealous?
Back in June when I was working in a very cold building, I was jealous of all my co-workers who were outside in the warmth and the ones that could wear shorts while I had thermals under my jeans.


3. Have you started Christmas/holiday shopping yet? When will you finish? (There's only 63 days left!)
Christmas is coming? I thought it was Halloween, oh well.


4. What would you have a personal chef make you tonight?
I have a personaly chef (Vx), I think he's making hamburgers.


5. Where was your first kiss?
The old elementary playground, it was during recess in second grade, Jeff and I were boyfriend/girlfriend, another boy named Chris asked all the kids on the merry-go-round, "Who wants to see Jeff kiss (me)?" some kids raised their hands, and he kissed me. Then the question was reversed, kids rose their hands, and I kissed him. Another kid that saw this told on us. The next day, we had to bring a note f/home explaining that our parents talked to us about the incident, since Jeff usually walked home, my mom gave him a ride that afternoon and talked to both of us about the incident. I guess he didn't tell his parents or bring a note the next day, because him and Chris got swats, while I didn't.

MilSpouse Friday Fill-In


It's MilSpouse Friday Fill-In! I struggled w/this week's questions...


1. What are some things on your bucket list? (from New Girl on Post)
I don't really have one, I have some goals that (right now) don't seem obtainable, but they are more "achieve these very soon" more than "give yourself 20 years" type of things.

2. How long have you been a MilSpouse and where have you been stationed so far? (from Raising Roscoe)
It will be 3 years on the 27th of October. First unit was 6 miles away from our home in Oklahoma, that unit was dismantled and combined w/a unit in Arkansas (about a 2 hour drive), next unit (warriors) was at the same place as the first one (6 miles away), after that (salsa) was in Texas, when deployment orders were cancelled, he returned to warriors, now his unit is in Washington state, near his dad and younger sister. Being "part-time Reservist", my husband doesn't have to move around when he changes units, and since every unit's supposed to have a CBRN, he can RST w/warriors or other nearby units on their drill weekends if he's not teaching classes or training for his unit.

3. What is a list of songs that sums up your life so far? (from Confessions of a Sailor's Wife)
I'm not sure, usually what I think songs mean aren't really the meanings, or one lyric would describe me, but another doesn't.


4. What is your favorite kind of pizza?
Hamburger is my top favorite, I also like pizza w/meatballs, chicken, sausage, canadian bacon & pineapple, and chicken alfredo pizza. I like to dunk my pizza in marinara sauce as well (or alfredo sauce for chicken alfredo).


5. What are three good things in your life right now?
1. The cat is behaving herself
2. Vx and I are getting along
3. I'm not working outdoors in the cold
