As my brain melts and becomes one with reality, the affair of this journey of life becomes familiar with you and me.

Pet Peeve #23
There are several words in the English language that are already plural with the addition of certain words preceding it.
Every
Some
Any
There is no need to add a fucking "s" at the end of the word that is already plural.
So quit fucking doing it!
If you happen to be talking to me and I slap the back of your head for being a dumb ass, know now you have been forewarned.

All the Above

Alpha Males Running Rampant
I was immediately pissed off at this point in time. Then the HM1 a the front desk said this schmuck would be part of my evaluation. I then promptly said fuck you, and my afternoon went way better after that.
Needless to say, they did some switching around and I did my evaluation with some other people. I have to call back tomorrow with my decision to do:
a) nothing.
b) see a counselor off the books. (Requires extra driving on my part.)
c) see a licensed clinical practitioner either:
i) on base, on the record. (Able to give Meds.)
ii) off base, on the record. (Able to give Meds.)
iii)off base, off the record. ( Kind of a big shoulder, but closer to home.)
Who knew I would have all these decisions to make?

Head Doctor
People, Places and Things
The house that I am in a contract for has at least two more weeks of repairs, which in turn means I have at least two weeks more with the rental situation.
The doctors have given me a prescription of Celebrex, does nothing for the pain, stops me from taking aspirin, and have AmbienCR which helps me sleep in four hour blocks.
The goods news is
I am seeing a head doctor tomorrow?

RevGals Friday Five: Wait and Pray
So how do you wait and pray?
1. How do you pray best, alone or with others?
I rely on the prayer of others.
2. Do you enjoy the discipline of waiting, is it a time of anticipation or anxiety?
I hope it will come to me when I need it most.
3. Is there a time when you have waited upon God for a specific promise?
Yes
4. Do you prefer stillness or action?
You could think of me like an action hero. But not plastic.
5. If ( and this is slightly tongue in cheek) you were promised one gift spiritual or otherwise what would you choose to recieve?

My Opinions Don't Matter, Part II
Dreams
Tuesday, April 29, 2008
Have you ever wondered?
The first fold of our flag is a symbol of life.
The second fold is a symbol of our belief in eternal life.
The third fold is made in honor and remembrance of the veterans departing our ranks who gave a portion of their lives for the defense of our country to attain peace throughout the world.
The fourth fold represents our weaker nature, for as American citizens trusting in God, it is to Him we turn in times of peace as well as in time of war for His divine guidance.
The fifth fold is a tribute to our country, for in the words of Stephen Decatur, "Our Country, in dealing with other countries may she always be right; but it is still our country, right or wrong."
The sixth fold is for where our hearts lie. It is with our heart that we pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States Of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all.
The seventh fold is a tribute to our Armed Forces, for it is through the Armed Forces that we protect our country and our flag against all her enemies, whether they be found within or without the boundaries of our republic.
The eighth fold is a tribute to the one who entered into the valley of the shadow of death, that we might see the light of day, and to honor mother, for whom it flies on Mother's Day.
The ninth fold is a tribute to womanhood; for it has been through their faith, their love, loyalty and devotion that the character of the men and women who have made this country great has been molded.
The tenth fold is a tribute to the father, for he, too, has given his sons and daughters for the defense of our country since they were first born.
The eleventh fold, in the eyes of a Hebrew citizen represents the lower portion of the seal of King David and King Solomon, and glorifies in their eyes, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
The twelfth fold, in the eyes of a Christian citizen, represents an emblem of eternity and glorifies, in their eyes, God the Father, the Son, and Holy Spirit.
When the flag is completely folded, the stars are uppermost reminding us of our nation's motto, "In God We Trust".
After the flag is completely folded and tucked in, it takes on the appearance of a cocked hat, ever reminding us of the soldiers who served under General George Washington, and the sailors and Marines who served under Captain John Paul Jones, who were followed by their comrades and shipmates in the Armed Forces of the United States, preserving for us the rights, privileges, and freedoms we enjoy today.
The next time you see a flag ceremony honoring someone that has served our country, either in the Armed Forces or in our civilian services such as the Police Force or Fire Department, keep in mind all the important reasons behind each and every movement.
They have paid the ultimate sacrifice for all of us by honoring our flag and our Country.

Thank all of you that send readers my way.
Rainy Day, Part II
I am so glad I put RainX on my windshield this weekend. The difference that makes is like buying a box of Freedom and get it. Always with wings lets you fly. Or maybe I have no fucking clue what I am talking about since I am cooped inside from the fucking rain.
A few years(okay it was a decade) ago I was stationed at Cherry Point and you could literally set your watch to the rain. Here you can't do that but you could easily put your money on the PASS line.
Okay, I am done.

Visiting
Also, today I met with friend that I haven't seen in eight years. Now, that is just wacky. I thought it was longer but was immediately corrected. Her kids happen to be my God-kids. Which is grand in itself.

300th Comment for April
Jan has given me my 300th comment of the month.
Congratulations!
You are awarded my imaginary collection of dragon wash beads.
RevGals Friday Five: Old vs. Modern
without?
Sunglasses(Dark ones)
2. What modern convenience/invention do you wish had never seen the light of day?
Why?
Cell Phone - The call is not important enough to interrupt our current conversation.
3. Do you own a music-playing device older than a CD player? More than one? If
so, do you use it (them)?
I have a MP3/4 player, it was a gift, I never use it.
I read this wrong the first time, yes, I have a record player that plays 33s and 78s, I also have a tape deck for my stereo and an eight-track player. I use them often.
4. Do you find the rapid change in our world exciting, scary, a mix...or something
else?
The US is in its own little world so it is hard to answer this question- scary.
5. What did our forebears have that we have lost and you'd like to regain? Bonus
points if you have a suggestion of how to begin that process.
Community
I could tell you but it would be considered a terrorist act so lets just say roast marshmallows over an open fire.
