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.

Today I found out my paternal grandfather had one eye removed due to a cancerous growth. He had a hole in his retina and apparently over time it got infected and such and the pain was too much to tolerate.

As of late, my father has been having eye issues so he went to an optometrist who stated he had a hole in his retina. He went to a retina specialist and thankfully the optometrist was wrong and apparently all he has is some scar tissue.

The outcome didn't surprise her the least bit. But at that point, there was no use worrying about it any further. They'd just have to take their loss and continue to move forward.

And that's what she did. Beatrice headed back to her quarters seeking to change out of her clothes. Not that they were particularly uncomfortable, but the tense interaction had made the young woman sweat just the slightest bit. And if she wasn't engaged in any strenuous or physical activity, she hated the feeling; it was a small pet peeve for her. Another reason why she would choose to stay out of the sun if she could help it. "Get out there," or "You gotta catch some sun". She would hear that all the time, but she wouldn't pay any attention to them. Beatrice was naturally pale, and if she was outside for a prolonged period of time without sunscreen, she would burn. Of course, nobody else but her had to suffer through that pain.

After she freshened up and got comfortable, Beatrice figured she could finish familiarizing herself with the systems onboard. That was the plan, at least until she found about the newcomer that had boarded. Beatrice found it a bit odd that they were practically kicked out of Havi only to now have one of them asking for help. That's what the alert stated anyway.

Possibly a blessing in disguise... she thought to herself, turning around.

Beatrice headed back to retrieve her equipment. She wasn't called out yet, but one could never be too sure. Besides, it didn't hurt to have an additional body. She preferred to be proactive anyway.

Once she grabbed her bag, Beatrice made her way down to the docking bay. If nothing else, she could link up to their system. That was the best case scenario.
I was born in the city but raised in a small town all the way until the age of 10, then I moved to an even bigger city.

Sometimes I wonder what living the small town life would be like as an adult.
Work has been kicking my butt. I'll be working on something soon!
I love to run, and I much prefer to do it outside than on a treadmill. With that said, I've taken some nasty falls because of uneven sidewalks. This one in particular I was halfway into my run so what do I do? I continue running because honestly, how else would I get home?


I played piano in high school my senior year. The class was great and I learned a lot; my only regret being not taking the class my freshman year so I could do all 4 years. Lately I've been considering buying a piano and a book so I could get back into it because honestly, there's not much to do these days.
I'm not sure whether I'm the only one but sometimes I feel naked if I'm not wearing my mask. Crazy, huh?
