Mood:  special

Morning!

Well, not much to talk about today. I finished the first set of flash cards and am halfway through the second set, just need to color them. I did half the dishes yesterday, my hands started to get irritated and dry form the soap so I decided to call it a day. I picked up Flyboy really late in the evening from work then we grabbed a tuna sandwich from Subway. We came home, caught the new episode of Bones and that was about it. Oh! We also caught the tail end of Lethal Weapon, the first one. (Now I see why there are a lot of women who have crushes on Mel Gibson. =)  Haha!)

It is still stormy out and they only call for a 20% chance of rain, which means it is going to pour. Out here everything is backwards, so if the weather guy says there is a chance of precipitation 40% or below, it will pour. If he says that we have a higher percent than 40% with the exception of 90-100% it won’t rain at all. Very weird, I say.

Flyboy is doing a little better, although the medicine is messing his system up, poor thing. Yeah, also because NO ONE told us they were sick as well as everyone else, this upcoming flight he was scheduled to be on, well they took him off because he would still be DNIF when it came time to fly. Yeeeaaah, so he gets NO fly time this month because these people care more about this silly game than they do about the health and welfare of their friends. (They are obsessed about this game, I am not kidding you. It is to the point where I think they actually believe the pretend world, really does exist. Sort of freaks me out. I mean its one thing if you dream about it but it is another to act like… okay, I should stop. I apologize, I am just really frustrated. I feel like they got my hubby sick on purpose because we like never go over there anymore. That seems like a large accusation to you but can assure you that it is not, that is precisely the type of people they are. I don’t like “mask” wearers and I wish I would have figured them out a few years ago. =/ )

Anywho, on a lighter note, I have less flash cards to do. Oh! Today Flyboy is practicing for the up coming Change of Command. I think I may have told you, but the Squadron Commander is being sent to a different base and oddly they new guy we are getting used to be an ex-fighter pilot, so this should be interesting. We are also loosing a bunch of guys from the flight, they too are being sent elsewhere. Oh, and don’t get me started on the two guys who got their dreams crushed. One of them is a top tech in the flight and the other is new, like new, new and they both got told they couldn’t fly. The first guy, he is Our Asian, (I say it that way because one he is and two he tells everyone that he is The Asian and he enjoys living up to his stereotype, and is proud of it. He flaunts it around too, really funny) Anyway, he has been diagnosed with a heart murmur and is never allowed to fly again. He is really bummed about that as is everyone else. The new guy had been trying SOOOOO hard to get switched over to become a P.J. (Parachute Jumper) because he really wanted to be out there saving lives. He didn’t want to be behind the scenes doing it; he wanted to be actually responsible for saving lives. (He is the A1C  in charge of A2D2) well, he got his test results back from his physical, to see if he was qualified to cross over, and they found out that he has hyperglycemia. They will never let him fly. So yeah, poor kid, just crushed. I mean, why can’t the guys who hate their job here get stuck with these conditions instead of the guys who want to make a difference and kick serious butt at their jobs? It is so, so cruel, you know? I know The Asian will be fine, he left a 7 figure income to join the Air Force (we all think he was crazy for that, in a teasing way) but I am a bit worried about the new guy. We can’t lose him, he loves my wings!!!! (Yay! For a totally self-centered and completely insensitive moment!) But yeah, so anyway…

That is about it over here. I should probably start getting my flash cards together and put some food I the crock pot (its chicken noodle soup from scratch night) and I would like to make it to the desk before Little House on the Prairie comes o, I love that show. I am going to search for the books; I think they would be very fun to read. =)

But, I better go for now. Take care! Have a Great weekend!!!!!!!
