Wasabi???

It has been a while...
I have been very busy setting up a new career.
I am in a position to continue with everyday people and everyday nonsense or blaze a new trail.
The last company I worked for taught me a very valuable lesson…
“No matter who you are or what you do, everyone looks out for themselves. People are not responsible for their shortcomings and it is never their fault.”

With that in mind I have found a great career for me in the military, the army to be more specific.
I took my ASVAB test and scored very high. I also have very high line scores.
My scores give me the ability to have any job that I want and I have found a great career in Military Intelligence. My main goal is to become a Military Intelligence Officer and work for the NSA.

All that is taking time is I have 2 Aggravated Assault charges on my juvenile record. The charges are from 10 and 12 years ago. The Army says that it is not a problem but we have to go through the motions of having it reviewed. Once that is taken care of then I am ready to ship out.

I want to leave now!!!
This process has been ongoing for the past 3 - 4 weeks. I have been dropping weight and I am no longer on any medications. I am down to 185 lbs. and passed my physical with no problem. I have been riding a bike for 20 – 30 miles a day and have been eating very well.

We are working on selling the house and paying off all of our debt which is not going to be a problem. The family is doing good too. Kyle is very excited to be moving, he wants to live on base. He also can not wait until he is 10 years old so he can get a Military ID Card.

Dawn’s father sees the whole thing as a bad idea and keeps fucking with Dawn about it. He keeps talking to people and twisting what they say to make it seem like a bad idea for us. He believes that we are taking a huge step backwards and that I am going to die in Iraq. I do not think he has the foresight enough to see beyond an M16. He is also telling everyone that we are in such a bad space and that our world is falling apart; if he has talked to you about things like that just disregard what he has told you. It is sad but he is creating such a gap between him and the rest of my family (Dawn, Kyle and Rebecca). It is neither here nor there because soon we will be gone, hopefully to another state or maybe even another country.

Bottom line is I have my mind set on doing this and nothing or no one is going to change that. Everyone that I talk to that is in the Army says it is a great idea, everyone that is not says I am going to end up in Baghdad fighting insurgents and getting blown up by IED’s.

It is crazy to see how people who have no idea think they know so much.
