Last full week

This is the last full week of duty for me in the Active Duty Air Force. It's kinda freaky. Snuck up on me sooner than I had anticipated.

I am trying not to get discouraged that I'm not having much success with my job hunt. It is early yet, and that thought is keeping me from going totally insane. I am thinking of finding a night stock job, and going to school full time during the day.......still have some thing sI am looking into though...

I went to the Quilt Show in Hampton this weekend, and it made me itch to get back into quilting and sewing. Terminal leave will help with that, I am sure. Since I got my sewing machine fixed, I will be able to dive headlong into getting Ziggy's quilt done. After that, I am determined to do something productive knitting-wise. Learn how to do socks or hats or something.......

11 days until I start my terminal leave. I can hardly wait!!!!! I am also getting antsy to be done with school. I've been going for so long, and I have nothing to show for it. I need a degree. Soon, too, cause I am over being in college.

I got my tattoo for MiniMachine. It's beauiful. I will have to get Ziggy to take a picture of it so I can post it on here........

Ok, that's about all I have today...

Tire Fuck

LOL.........there's a bit of a tale behind the title.......Mason and I are driving home from my sister's house, and we pass a fire station. Matthew, cutie that he is, alerts Mama and Daddy of the finding of the fire truck. Well, it came out of his mouth as Tire Fuck......Mason and I got to giggling......and he kept saying it....over and over, Mason even snorted!!!! It was hilarious!

BTW, I got my Riley tattoo.........it's huge and it's gorgeous!!!!

Alright!!!!!

So I've been taking the opportunity to job search while I sit at my desk at work with little to nothing to do.......and I've applied to more jobs than I care to count. I think it's over 20 now. But, anyways, I applied to GEICO insurance, sinc eI have experience working in that industry, though it was health insurance, not car. Anywho, 2 hours after I apply online, I get a phone call requesting a elephone interview on Monday. Yiiippppppeeeee!!!!!!!

I could choke

the laughter is killing me.........I can't help it.....I was mean today. A couple times. Did I care? Nope, not really......my alter-ego on myspace? Did what it was set up to do.......LOL......oh that was too funny......

Shortitis

I have Shortitis. Meaning I am short on time left in the Air Force. Oh yea.......not that my job is overly busy all the time, but here lately I have been doing a whole lot of nothing to do with my job. I've surfed the web for jobs. I've shopped Ebay until even I got bored with it( and that's a LOT, considering how much I love EBay).

I really should get my butt in gear and start planning my party. I want one of those fabulous cakes from Charm City Cakes in Baltimore, but they are hella expensive. Maybe for my birthday. I'm inviting a bunch of folks for my party. I ought to put together my guest list this week.

SO I am going to a bridal shower for Kat next weekend. Ziggy is making me go because I am in the wedding. I kid you not, the invitation to the shower states that the couple isn't registered anywhere, but cash and gift cards are appreciated. OMG, how rude! I mean damn.....this is the THIRD time Kat's been married, good grief! Why the hell have a shower anyways? She lives with the man as it is. Not like they haven't got the house fitted out already.

So I go to lunch Friday with my friend Graf. Graf has beaten cancer, and we were celebrating. So I'm chatting Graf up about Other and his dramatics.......come to find out, Graf knows Other's woman. And had absolutely nothing good to say about her. This is becoming a pattern with the folks I have met that know her.

Soo, 77 days until I am out. Less than 30 until I go on terminal leave. That starts 9 March.

My father-in-law will be here in 2 weeks. Lord help me, the kids are going to be spoiled beyond help. But my house will be clean. My father-in-law is a SERIOUS neatnick............

Snow

Yea, we were supposed to get a couple inches last night. Anything on the ground? Nada. Zip. Zilch and Zero. It's kind of amusing to watch these people freak out over an inch of snow. You would have thought there was a blizzard coming at the rate they were going on about it.

The latest count is 81 days left. 30 until I start terminal leave. I can hardly wait. I am more ready to be done than I thought I would be. THis is a good thing. I have been applying to every job I can find. Hopefully something will turn up.

Bummer

So I'm chatting up CrazyGirl today while at work, and she imparts to me the fact that she's being medically booted out of the Air Force Reserves, due to some medication that she takes. As it happens, I take the same meds. Sooo.....to make a semi-long story short, I may not get to go into EITHER the reserves or the Guard, due to the meds I take. Peachy. Ok, not really.

I put in for my terminal leave today. 31 days left til it starts, 10 March. 86 til I am out.

Hell yes for heat!!!

Sears is coming tomorrow to put in our shiny new heater!!!!!! Yiiipppppeeee!!!!

Shortitis has officially kicked in. I have such a hard time doing my job now. Especially since I looked at the calendar today, and realized that I will be out of the Air Force in 3 months. So I have been surfing jobs......and reading up on the news.........and doing as little work as humanly possible.

I am going to the gym more often now, though. Trying to lose some weight and tone myself.......
