gross gross gross...
what is it with dogs and "cleaning up' after the cats?

*gag*
must be one of the most REVOLTING smells ever.

makes me quite ill.

so that damn dog is kicked out of my room and she can grumble and snorf and growl and whimper and be a pain in the butt, BUT FROM THE PASSAGE WHERE I CAN'T SMELL HER BREATH!

ANYHOO...

Been looking at gifts for the boy, for his 24th, at the end of June.
I want to get him something unique, original, special... something that shows him how much I love him, and makes him think of me every time he sees it...

I also want to get another tattoo - had some ideas and sent an email to my tattoo artist friend, see what he says about it... if he has any ideas as well...

A few updates:
Yes, I got that job in the HellDesk.
Full time. 8am to 4:30pm.
Which means getting up at 0530, leaving home at 0615 and getting to work by 0700, or I fight my way through traffic for an hour and a half.
Joy.
I only fall asleep, if I'm lucky, around 0230.
So I am one TIRED little geek girl.

I have too many house sitting gigs lined up.
I am tired just thinking about it. Start next week with the first one.
No pets. Will be quiet. No internet either. will be boring.
But it's during the week anyway - so I basically come home, eat, shower, sleep, wake up early.. no time for anything else really.
Haven't done much photography recently - too exhausted on the weekends - but still getting orders...
OH!
My photobook got listed on Amazon... check it out!

I'm kinda stoked, actually - a Lulu pilot program that included me!
I'll see what comes of it, and I definitely need to make a new photobook with updated photos and a new theme too...

I trimmed my fringe - it was annoying me - I think I did a pretty good job.
I am going to dye my hair "ruby red" a bit later... see how that turns out - since the blonde thing ain't happened...
Just a change.. it's a dark ruby red... so more reddy brown, but not auburn...
I'll see what my hair decides it will turn out as though...

Went out to the Marine Bar last night - first time since.. wow.. November last year!
They've revamped it - it looks awesome!
All warm colours and nice lighting and a very cool poker table and also a new pool table (Bridgeport)... I even managed to win a few games. The other table I don't I ever won once... but I blamed it on the skewness and the bumps in the felt!
Met Bud, and Jeff and Chris - no, not Marines. Guys working there on the new security fencing etc at the Consulate. Cool dudes. Chris was born and raised on Oahu, in Hawaii - he has such a cool accent :) He joined the US Army at age 18, and was also stationed at Schofield, like the boy. But obviously, WAY back - he said '79 to '82 or something! He was very cool. I didn't get to talk to Jeff much, but he has a really fun laugh and a lovely accent too.
Bud was cool too - married a saffy girl a while back, and has a young daughter here.

Met one of the new Marines - John Oh - he was born in Korea, but went to the US when he was 7. Joined the Marines!
He's tiny, but a sweety from what I could gather. Didn't talk to him much.
Didn't meet Joseph, the other Marine, but saw him wander off to Post in his camos. Made me miss my man SO much.
And hearing all the accents.

And I still haven't met Jeff, and he's been there the longest out of the n00bs.

Jason leaves end of the month I think.. or in July.. he hasn't got orders, just knows he's going to New Delhi! Can you imagine?! I think he'll do well though - he has a strange patience with developing nation people, like us. I wish him luck. (although he carries that with him at all times) Will miss him though! Half Italian, half Irish - makes for a crazy concoction!

Miss the boy something fierce.
and with the new Plan he's made... I guess i will just have to go on missing him for a while longer.
yes, hoping still to go to the States in December.
after that, it's back here.
guess i'll just make my own plans and stuff.
i want to move out.
i love my mom, love my animals, but i so desperately need my space.
and since i won't be going anywhere for a few years, i might as well do it when i get back.
Not this year though - will be saving for the trip.
Not sure if i have to buy the ticket or not.
Details are, as always, vague.
i'm adapting though.
I'm a tough cookie.
a Saffy through and through.

We move on.
