No matter how easy I thought (or still think) things would have or will be, I am always confronted with more than I had expected to see. Emotion and social endevors still rage, but underneath it all I find myself somehow devoid of direction and unaware of how I should handle all these situations.

I remeber a time when I could quickly assess most problems and handle them with an appropriate amount of charisma and stern hand. But now it seems Im just going through the motions. Im seriously hoping to work out of this "funk" sometime soon.

Yup, fun dates are fun indeed. And it also marks me just shy of two weeks from being home on the 24th. My mind had been fully wrapped around all things home-related, which means I havent really done anything in the writing/drawing depatment. But I am okay with that. I'll have time enough when Im sitting at the school before I start my own classes in January.

Yesterday sucked. Power died mid-afternoon. So I was laying in nothing but my underoo's in bed sweating like a whore in church- so to speak. It came back on around 11 finally, and I got a couple hours of ok sleep before I had to get up for work around 5am. Ive been working long ass days in the hot fucking desert. Only a few more to go, but man what a rough last few days, though nothing can get me down!!

Did a tatoo for my bud. I think he's actually gunna get it put on him when we go home, which will make for three of my works being used on people. Cool beans yeah?

Anyway, Im not gunna get into all the nittty gritty stuff, becuase no one enjoys reading me whine about the dumbness, and Im in no whining mood. I am starved for some sex... and I could really use a good home cooked meal for sure.

Peace.

  Hey there, fans. We're just about halfway through August, and I'm happy to report that some things could definitally be better in my life at the moment, I have managed to put myself into a good mindset and have been keeping a good outlook.

I happily finished writing chapter 21 a couple days ago, emailing it to a few people and posting it on Gaia. As always, send me word if you'd like to read it and I happen to have passed you over. Ive only gotten feedback from Rachel (a decidedly bias reader) who said it is possibly the best chapter yet. That said, I think that If I continue on this path, with both quality and chapter length, the book may draw to a close sometime around 30-35 chapters, though I have no timeline to put that in.

In other news, I finally have some dates to wrap my  mind around for my departure out of this sand-filled butthole. The skinny oof it all boild down to me being back on Ohio soil sometime between Sep 21-23rd. As long as I'm home before Oct 1st I'm happy.Ive been in the military for over 4 years now, and with that time Ive learned a bit here and there. And one thing stands out in times like this. No matter what pricks you have to endure, nothing is forever. Eventually you move on and look back and can be happy you didn't drop yourself to their level.

Thats about all to report. Sorry I'm not to good at conveying my thoughts through smooth poetry or lyrics.

Peace out!
