Well I haven't updated in a while and figured I should let you all know I'm still alive. I've still been working on my art work but I'm just being to lazy to upload it and in the coming months I probably won't have much time to. When things in my life start getting a little more stable I'll start up again but for right now everything is tossed up in the air and I'm not sure which is going to fall down first.

So Here's to a hopeful future that's less stressful.

Have you ever heard that one country song (What the name is and who sings it I don't know) about a girl who feels lucky but her horoscope keeps telling her that the stars are stacked against her and she should get back to bad? And she winds up winning the lotto or something? Yeah, I wish I was her.

About 3 weeks ago I got a letter in the mail summoning me for jury duty for today, monday the 4th, at 9 am. On my way there what should happen? I get pulled over! Not because I was speeding for those of you who I'm sure are going "Well you know, Thats what happens when you speed." But because my front license plate was missing. So the officer gave me a fix it ticket (Yes Officer, I'm happy I could help fill your quota).

So anyways, I finally get to the court house and signed in, only to wait around for 2 hours bored out of my mind, just to finally be called into a court room with a bunch of people only to be told, Guess what! Your services are not required! Thanks for coming! Damn you court house. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have gotten that ticket.

Anyways, after I got out of there I headed over to the AAA office and told them I was missing a licenses plate. So they gave me a brand new set! The letters on my licenses plate(VNE) no longer makes you want to say "Vinnie" But now you'll want to break out into song and dance with "peanut butter jelly time"(PBJ).

I had to drive to my uncles to get a screw driver so I could put on my new licenses and then drive back to AAA and give them the old one. While at my uncles, he looked at the ticket and then told me that he new the police officer! They went to school together! And that if I had told him who my mom was, or that I was related to him, I probable wouldn't have gotten a ticket!

Aaaaaaaah!

So I had this dream last night and I thought I'd share it with everyone. It's kinda like snow white, but no dwarfs and a weird ending.

There was this Princess who fell in love with a Prince from a neighboring kingdom. They loved each other very much. But then one day the Queen found out, and she was not happy. The Queen was a powerful sorceress, and started abusing the Princess. When the Prince found out, he gathered up his army a went to rescue the Princess.

When the Queen saw the Prince and his army arrive, she poisoned the Princess with a poison that would prevent her from moving. The Queen then threw the Princess over the balcony of where the awaiting Prince was at. She hit the ground very hard. The Prince upset at seeing his beloved so abused, raised his sword to begin the battle.

The Queen soon forfeited, not wanting her precious castle to be destroyed. The Prince had one of his healers heal the Princess, but for some reason he no longer wanted her. The Princess not want to stay, followed the Prince and his army back to there homeland. On the way the Prince's army was attacked by darkness(Ooo scary right?). The troops soon became separated. The Princess and some of the Prince's men, were hiding out in a hut owned by an old hermit, when the Queen arrived outside! She was looking for the Princess.

The Princess not wanting to return with her asked the men what to do. One of them spying a jar of olives decided that they should turn themselves into olives and hide in plain sight. Soon after doing so the Queen soon entered the hut and began questioning the old hermit if he had seen anything. During the questioning, the Queen began to grow hungry. She looked around the room for anything to eat and spied the jar of olives. She then ate the jar of olives.

Afterwords she had a slight stomach ache but cured it with one of her potions.  

So umm... Yeah.

So my 21st birthday has not been so great. A laptop from one of the armory's was stolen that had a bunch of peoples personal information on it, and I happened to be one of them. I at first figures that who ever stole it did it for the laptop(cause the military has some pretty sweet ones), but alas, it apparently was not so. Today I received a letter in the mail stating that I signed up for a Power Rewards Platinum Plus Visa, but was denied because my credit was not good enough So I filed for a credit report for the next 90 days and filed a fraud alert. That way if anyone tries to sign up for anything using my name the people there signing up with have to call me to confirm.

Besides for that whole fiasco, my body has decided to work against me as well. I have a kidney stone, and OMFG it HURTS.

Just got off drill for the weekend and thought I'd update my journal here seeing as my weekend was eventful. Friday and Saturday we went out to the sheriffs range and zeroed and qualified our weapons. First platoon was in charged of running the range so I got to load ammo the entire time. plus whatever anyone else needed done. I've learned that some people are just not capable of hitting a target. Mainly the Sergent who wants to be an officer. She took all day to just zero her weapon one friday, and then saturday about the 6th time she was sent out to qualify she threw her weapon down and stormed off the range. I doubt she will ever make it to the school where you become an officer just because of her attitude.

The last group to finally qualify Sergeant Hopper deemed the short bus. Mainly because it was there 2nd or 3rd time going out onto the firing range and we were running out of ammo. Luckily for all of them they passed the last time. Then it was finally first platoons chance to go up.

Me being the dumbass that I am, forgot to put my ear plugs in before we started firing. So for the first 20 rounds, I went deft. My ears were numb and ringing and I couldn't here a thing by the end of it. When we paused to reload I took that time to put in my earplugs to prevent any further hearing loss. At the end of the day 1 ear was fine but the other was still numb. I told my sergeant about it and he said to leave my earplug in for a few hours and when I take it out to stay away from anything that might make a loud noise, and if it was still numb by the next day to let him know. Luckily it wasn't numb and I can hear out of it just fine now... I think. As for qualifying I managed to score a 26. it's not a great score, but it's passing.

Sergeant Davis didn't like his score. He got a 23 which is the bare minimum. He blamed it on his weapon and wanted to re-quailfy, so he took mine to do it. It must have been on a whim or something, I'm not sure. Or maybe it was just because I was there with mine. However, that bastard managed to score a 33 with my weapon! Where is the justice in this? It was zeroed for me and my eye sight, so how the hell did he managed to score higher then me?

I have a sunburn thanks to one of my sergeants. I'm a very white person, the kind that you think would sunburn, but I don't. there are only 2 ways that I will sunburn and that is if I'm out in the sun for about 3 to four days, or strangely enough, if I use sunblock. For some reason sunblock has the opposite effect on me, but one of my sergeants didn't believe me and made me put it on.

At the end of it all we still managed to have left over rounds. So we got to play a bit out on the range. A couple of the Sergeant brought there weapons from home that can use the ammo that the M16's use. Sergeant Hopper brought his hunting rifle with him and I got to fire it off. That was fun. It was nice looking too. I can't remember what model it was, I just know that it was pretty(I'm such a girl XD). McNicholes brought his modified tommy gun thing. If it was a machine gun it would have been so much cooler. It was fun, but man it had a kick to it. Then on of the other sergeants brought his pistol with him, along with his own ammo. It was fun to shoot, but you wouldn't think that such a small weapon would have such a big kick to it. I thought it was going to fly out of my hands!

That was Friday and Saturday. Sunday we cleaned weapons, has a suicide prevention class and TA 50 lay out. It was a nice easy day. The master cook ordered food for us instead of giving is MRE's again. She would cook something for us but there's nothing at the armory too cook.
Someones care got broken into at the armory. At first they thought it was mine but it turned out to be someone else's. When we went out to check out cars I did discover however, that a bird had managed to crap inside my car. I only had my windows cracked about an inch open and some bird managed to land one right in threw it.

well that's all that I can think of writing for now. TTFN!
