I'm so flippin bored

Everybody says a deployment is what you make of it. Well, I don't particularly feel like being friendly with anybody today. I don't want to play bingo. I don't want to watch some black people bad comedy live play on the movie screen in the theater. I don't want to sit in my smelly room. I don't want to go back to work. I don't want to go to the gym. I don't feel like running. I'm not interested in any praise Jesus chapel crap. So I found myself in the media center because I realized I didn't do a blog today... not that I didn't have time to do one, I just didn't do one. I didn't do anything today productive because my one tasked I was criticized for immensely, which was a downer... I can take criticism fine, but don't expect me to perform later if you criticize me degradingly. So I watched the movie Ray on the movie server.

I'm now 10 minutes into my 20 minute computer time because this computer is wacked up, so I guess I should figure out a topic to blog about.

Tonight, my boss needed to take her laundry in, so she gave me a ride back to my trailer on the other side of base. On the way, she asked me... so, a week in, what do you think? I asked her "Honestly?" She said yes... so I told her we don't do what we should be doing because we are too bogged down with the small scale stuff. She told me she agreed perfectly, that its all been tried in the past and that I have all the flexibility in the world to make anything happen if I want... so, I guess I'll try, because up to this point given previous direction, I had decided not to do anything unless specifically told to do so. We'll see what happens. I'll bet anybody a million bucks that the first product I bring to her she won't like or agree with. Mind-screw continues...

So... back to the movie theater topic. I, for the first time, went into the theater here tonight. A movie starts there every couple of hours and I happened to be walking by. i've been wanting to see Spanglish or Ladder 69... I've seen them advertised, but who can go to the movies at 1300? I didn't know what was playing. I thought it might be that dumb "Are we there yet" movie I saw advertised for sometime today. The guy at the door said some comedy. It was, according to the previews, by the same people who did "Diary of a mad black woman" which on the surface looked funny so I thought I'd give it a shot. Well, given that I'm in a place where there is mostly young enlisted people... and when you put enough young, inexperienced and under-cultured people in the same room, (not that all enlisted folk are... just a general observation of the young ones here) you get the hickville NC movie theater experience... Watusi talking on her cell phone to Daquante giving the play-by-play of the suspense flick you are watching, using her outside voice--while Jesus throws popcorn in the back. That's what I was expecting... let alone the fact I went to into a movie whose target audience is primarily Ghetto. I think the movie was called "Meet the Browns." After about 3 minutes, all the white people in the audience got up and left. I'm just reporting what happened... I wasn't finding it a bit of funny so I left too.

I guess I should find other ways to occupy my time. Read? It is nice outside... but I am bit up head to toe from the bugs the other night... my fault for not putting on bug juice. Honestly, I hadn't noticed the bugs up till that point... now, everywhere I go, I see them... And of course I've now noticed the loaded fly strips in the chow calls. GROSS.

Breakfast: eggs, sausage, hashbrown, banana
Lunch: chicken stir fry
Dinner: Tuna Casserole... but it was taco night. I wish I had seen the taco bar!!! Oh well.

Well my time is about up. I suppose I should send this on and finalize it.

Cheers
