Current I'd do it again though, let's not get that confused.

Pentagon fails 7th audit in a row, unable to fully account for $824B budget. And to think years ago I willingly became government property for the DoD... 🤦🏻‍♀️

What I'm doing may be considered suicide but my kid fell asleep on the ride home and now he's passed out on my bed. Here's to him pulling a 10 hour shift otherwise work is gonna suck for us tomorrow.

Joined the military, traveled (and more places to go still), finished grad school, married-and subsequently divorced, had a kid... Now all I need is to purchase my own home and my bucket list is done.

This virus has deepened my voice. I don't sound like a man, but something like a drag queen.

I too have the same condition. My eyes look identical to this person's:

Maybe it's a cultural thing, so excuse my ignorance, but why do people on TV brush their teeth and then eat breakfast? That's the definition of counterproductive and needless to say, orange juice tastes terrible after you brush your teeth. It's an observation that's bothered me for some time now but I never brought it up.

The only anime I ever watched and enjoyed was Starblazers. It was on American TV about 40 years ago. You can watch it on YouTube now, if you wish, but I wouldn't recommend it.


When I was in high school I saw a lot of episodes of Inuyasha that played in Adult Swim. I liked it despite the fact that I never finished it, but aside from that, I find everything else laughable.

Speaking of laughter, whenever a mosquito makes its way into my room--which is everyday because Florida--I pretend I'm Steve Irwin himself as I'm hunting the bastard down.
A few things I don't like that are very popular with a lot of people:

-Cheese
-Dogs
-Anime
Some of my drunkest experiences have been while on deployment. These are embarrassing, so please bear with me.

In Guantanamo Bay, we had a house party and we were playing King's Cup. I could have sworn I had like 3 drinks, but silly me got wasted, and it wasn't long before I knew I was crazy drunk. They walked me to a room and they said I fell on the bed face down and didn't move. They even walked in a few times to make sure I was still breathing. Needless to say I had a terrible hangover the next day.




When I drink, one of the first things to go is my memory. Like I'll be having a good time after a few drinks but not to the point where I'm stumbling around, yet the next morning I won't remember parts of the night. Not sure if it's like this for everyone else.
I have mid-length hair. I want long hair, but I also want to go back to my short hair. I don't know what to do.
I read the books twice. They are the only books I have ever read more than once; they were that good. No ONE person could ever spoil any of the Harry Potter books. There is so much content in each book, it would require between five and eight hours of movie to do each book justice. The movies are fun, but fall desperately short from what the books do.


I feel like you're trying to tell me something...
The clicking on the keyboard was practically the only sound within the room. Alejandra sat crosslegged on her bed, laptop propped up on a small stand in front of her. To her right, she had a fresh cup of tea on the bedside table, the steam rising away from the hot liquid. Alejandra usually waited for the tea to cool down a bit. She was unlike her mother who preferred to drink it hot. Her father, on the other hand, did not drink tea. He stuck to whisky, occasionally claiming it to be a gentleman's drink. But that was his excuse to drink whenever he felt like it, and neither Alejandra nor her mother paid him any mind.

Currently working on a program she'd created, Alejandra was lost in her own little world. She had gotten back from her work-out, taken a shower, and made herself a quick snack to eat while she waited for the water to boil. Once that was done, she grabbed her laptop and tea and headed to the bedroom. She had made some slight progress in the work she had planned to get done when the handheld she'd been issued went off. Alejandra turned her head to the side and reached for the phone that was also on her bed within arm's reach. She considered taking a sip of her tea, but thought better of it. The message that had been sent, while essential, did not elicit any response from her. She put the phone down, typed a few more things before shutting down the program, and placed the laptop aside. The tea was still in its place, untouched. Alejandra sighed before grabbing the cup and sipping some brewed perfection

Obviously that was a mistake.

The tea was still too hot for her liking, and she'd been foolish in assuming it had cooled down to her taste without first testing it. Alejandra grimaced momentarily before exhaling through her mouth. She hated burning her tongue as it meant she couldn't taste very good for a while. But she wasn't in a sour mood, not when she was about to get to work. She'd been looking forward to it since her arrival, and it was finally that time.
I never read all the books nor watched all the Harry Potter movies, and even though I want to it'd be pointless as I already know the spoilers. People are terrible.
