Christmas happenings

So Christmas at the Coan's wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I drank a lot of Jack and cokes to help numb my brain so I wouldn't have to deal with my aunt lol. The rest of my family was more or less sane minus the idiot who gave my 4 year old cousin a drum. WHY?!?!? My grandmother was good and not too demanding so that helped.

I saw the new National Treasure movie. I liked it but Bombard said he hated it. Well fuck him :-P It was as good as the first so it was nice that it didn't suck.

Other than that I haven't been up to anything, just watching movies and playing on my brothers old xbox. Definitely looking forward to heading up north for Drill and eventually BRIGS!

Home for Christmas

So I'm home in NJ for Christmas. I have no idea what I am going to do for the next three weeks. I may just kill myself before the end but whatever lol. I haven't finished my Christmas shopping yet so I plan on going out tomorrow, today actually, to finish it up. It is nice however to actually have enough cell phone reception to talk to someone on my cell. Usually I only get enough to send texts and such when I'm home. Go outside the valley I live in and you're fine, but go figure I live in an area with barely little cell phone coverage.

I think that my only plans I have is Christmas Eve dinner with my whole family. For some reason they decided that they would come here this year. Which means I can't come up with some excuse for missing out lol. So I'll have to be nice and actually pretend I care about my screwed up family.

I do have something to look forward to however. The first weekend in January I have drill, so I will be out of NJ sooner than I thought. Then the weekend after that I have camp *crosses fingers* Hopefully there will be no snow so we will actually hold camp. I'm excited to see the number of contra players we will have. Supposedly double digits but we shall see. Plus it'll be nice seeing all of my friends again. Maybe I won't be the only one still awake come 2 AM. Last year it was a tradition to close the bar and stay up until morning during normal camps/non show days. Maybe it was because it was the first camp but it seemed like me and Mike Brooker were the only ones up. I need to recruit some people lol.

No Brigs :-( / Idiot / Goal

Well there is no Brigs camp this weekend which kinda sucks. I was really looking forward to seeing everyone again but I have to wait another month. Now I need to find a place to keep my contra for the next month haha. My kitchen will do fine for now I guess.

I've put in a couple of applications to a bunch of places but I've only heard back from United Airlines. So hopefully I start hearing back from some other places otherwise I'll be commuting to Burlington for work.

I've also come to realize that I'm an idiot. I never thought I would still feel this way after so long of putting it out of my head. But I guess they will never go away.

I've taken the steps and I've started eating a lot healthier than I have been the last couple months. I hope I can stick to it otherwise I'm screwed. So now that I've started eating better I need to start exercising more. I haven't been doing it nearly enough and it's time to kick it into high gear. I need to fit into my Class A and Dress Blue uniforms come March, so I have my work cut out for me. I refuse to get them altered because 1. it costs money and 2. it's an incentive to lose weight. My goal is to reach my weight I was after I came back from AIT. So yeah, lofty goal, but I think one worth attaining. Oh please I want to look better in my Brigadier uniform being that the pants are pretty tight.

So we'll see how everything works out.
