Spoke Too Soon

Things are incredibly busy at work, we're leaving for France on Friday and I'm trying to spend time with Jessie before she leaves for Ireland. So this was probably not the best time to attempt to revive this journal - maybe in a few weeks.

Is there anybody out there?

I'm thinking of reviving this journal. Is anyone still reading?

Hypocrite

There's this woman on my military wives chat board talking about how she's so incredibly moral because she went back to Wal-mart to pay for the 97 cent hot wheels car her kid took from the store when she wasn't looking. Meanwhile, she lied about having mental health problems to get her husband out of going to Iraq. Big picture, people.

Emotional

One year ago today I got on a plane bound for Germany to welcome my fiance home from Iraq.

Today I cried in my supervisor's office as I prepare to send him off to war again, and booked tickets to attend the memorial service of one of my closest friend's father.

I am so bad at being a grown up

Tonight for dinner I had two kinds of frosting and a bottle of beer.

The Time Traveler's Wife

Soooooo good. Read it. The best book I've read since A Prayer for Owen Meany.

Like talking to a brick wall

Just in case you didn't know, the military community is saturated with hard core Bible thumpers who don't believe in science. How do you argue with these people about topics like global warming and evolution? If some of my more science-y friends (I'm looking at you Sara & Holli) want to give me some pointers for how to get through to these Denial Dwellers, I'd be most grateful.

Oh, and if you want to be terrified about the direction this country is headed in, watch the documentary Jesus Camp.
