Life

It's been how long since I last blogged? Dang!! Sorry folks.

Life seems to take the strangest turns sometimes. I don't really want to go to Turkey, but part of me is really looking forward to it. People who have been there keep telling me that I will love it. Other people tell me that they wish they were going. My Mom called the other night and asked if I was going to be one of those guys that gets to Turkey and then goes to Afghanistan to teach them how to set up computers. She saw some 20/20 show about that. I told her that I didn't think so. Now she has me wondering. Hopefully I will get a sponsor soon so I can find out more about the job.

What has everyone else been up to? I need a lot of time to try and catch up with everyone's blog.

Make a nice day!

POODLE!!!@#$!$@#@

OK.

I have to go to Turkey for a year. I won't be coming back to the Space Coast after that. I am going to have to create a new blog for Turkey. I'll take all ideas for a name for the new Turkey blog. I have a few months before I have to go, so hopefully I can get my affairs in order. I have been advised to buy as many silk rugs as I can and ship them back. Evidently they cost around $1000 over there and can be resold back here in the states for anywhere between $7000 to $10000 each. Anyone know this for a fact? Anyone looking for a new silk rug? What should I look for? What should I avoid? I will be in Izmir, Turkey so if anyone has a friend there that they would trust to sell me rugs, give me a holler.

Make a nice day.

Who, what, where am I?

It has been 2 weeks since I posted last. A lot has happened. I was very busy. I went up and got Gorgeous and moved her down here with me. We got back here last Friday night. We have boxes all over the house still. My stereo got unplugged and her sound system got set up. So did her tv. They are nicer than mine. Yesterday morning after PT, I got a bad email. I got selected for an assignment. A remote assignment. To Turkey. I have to be there no later than 30 November. That sucks. I guess I screwed up when I made MSgt. I can't turn the assignment down for the same reason I couldn't turn MSgt down. I would be a civilian this December with no retirement from the AF after 19 years. So that means I am going to Turkey for a year. It puts our plans on hold for a while, but I am positive everything will work out. When it will work out I'm not sure. At least I will be able to buy more gold cheaply and it gives me a chance to get a silk rug that I have wanted!

Make a nice Independence Day!
