Did my final out today so now I’m all shogun and stuff.  The funkenbus is coming in a couple of hours and I have no clue when I’ll be able to log any updates.

If terrorists fuck up my trip, I’m going to be mucho pissedo.

Breath Deep

There’s been a serious lack of training…this…month *sigh*.  It started when the movers came.  Then allergies kicked me in the Jimmy.  2 1/2 weeks of sinus headache, hacking death.  Bright news is I found some magic medicine that has helped considerably.  Bad news is I’m dreading starting back up because I know it’s going to suck.  Weininess is winning in the battle of wills here.

In other news I’m officially out processed of NATO.  I picked up my plane tickets today.  Monday will be a final out and trip to the airport.  Tuesday will be a long, painful, airplane filled day.  Good news is my 1st car is ready for pickup.  Bad news is that it’s 8 hrs away from where I’ll be.  Can’t have complete victory all the time I guess. :)

Wasted Days and Wasted Nights.

Time is plodding by at a decent pace.  We’ve had all of out worldly possetions picked up and now are back to what I like to call “newlywed stage.  We’ve got a couple pots and pans, air mattress’, and a wide variety of furnature by way of cardboard boxes.  For what ever reason the local phone\internet provider decided to not honor my request of turning my services off so that’s cool.  I don’t really know what they think is going to happen when I leave the fucking country and close all of my accounts, but we’ll find out together I guess.

Everything has been pretty smooth.  We had some car issues (of course) but that seems to be band-aided up for the time being and should last long enough to get it through the transition to US soil.  Another semester of school is almost in the books, just one more final.  Turns out my learning path was made out wrong and I have to take an additional class…fuckers.  So now I’m TWO classes away from officially being “educated”…and about fed up with school :) .

Work is non-existant.  It’s essentually confirmed what I thought was happening over the few months.  Basically I haven’t really had any official work to do and I’ve been a place feeler doing busy work.  Anyone ever seen office space?  “I decided that I’m going to stop going to work”  “You quit your job?” “No.  I’m just not going to go any more.”  Yeahhhhhh.  That’s where I am.  I haven’t went in a couple of weeks and it turns out that no one has missed me.  Makes you feel loved.  Thank goodness I’ve still got 4 years left on my contract. :D

In other news I think I’m going to steer towards a specialiaty in “Sports Massage”.  IMO a (satisfying) trainer career is pretty much something that just doesn’t seem to be something that’s going to really take off outside of some association with a club\team…which isn’t going to happen without knowing someone…which I don’t.  So I figure a move towards a more refined\defined skill set might be in order.  Worst case scenario I have a marketible set of skills and I can support myself.  Best case scenerio (forked path) I get to touch a hot chick now and then, or I gain another set of skills that I can use should a position on a team come open.
