I find that if you really want to get the jist of this post, you can completely skip most of the intermediate paragraphs, as much contained within them is verbose and superfluous, and just go right to the last paragraph. I feel extremely sleepy. Almost done with chapter two of Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, the AA book, I'm just hoping I can continue reading long enough to make it to lunch, as I know by reading with the energy of soda and ketchup covered french-fries on my side, I cannot fail. Once I finish the 12x12 book, I'll be starting up on the book Alcoholics Anonymous. I'm really only required to read up to chapter three or four or something, but I figure reading all of both won't hurt me either. In the meantime, I'll probably try to finish off 1984, very good so far, and it's nice to be getting back into reading I must say, it probably helps that my overall connection to DM is starting to die, but such is life. Things are going good with Karley, we've been together about a month and a week now. The trip to South Carolina was short and enjoyable, and in a way nostalgic, as it reminded me a simpler time back home, when the country actually felt like country, and my step-dad's blood pressure wasn't quite so high. The neighborhood was inviting and the biscuits were plentiful, as was the strawberry jelly which I copiously applied to them. We've also been hitting the gym whenever time, schedule, and sleep patterns permit. She does cardio, I do lifting, the baby sleeps or plays with the other babies in the day-care. All leave satisfied if not slightly tired and more than a little hungry. I have poor grammar, even now as I stand on the threshold of submitting myself to a college. I plan on going after a certificate of completion in computer programming. This of course will not be my aim in life so much as it is a long-standing curiosity and interest of mine which I've finally decided to make something more of. I'll probably eventually attempt to get another degree but more with a professional aim involved, as I've begun to give serious consideration to becoming an officer. With the green to gold program I could go to college full time, get my degree, get paid a good amount while doing so, and be practically civilian during the process. I'll be doing more research before anything becomes set in stone of course, as I've also been looking into the possibilities of going warrant officer, but again, my options are open for the time being. To sum up for those not wanting to read alot: I work in ESAP in the hospital now. Me and Karley are doing good currently. I've been reading more lately. I'm going to be doing college classes soon. There is no time like the present to waste. - Ignorance is Strength - Current Mood: complacentCurrent Music: Mindless Self Indulgence - Faggot | | Thursday, May 11th, 2006 | | 9:53 pm |
In Which He Steals Eslyn's Thing
Been a hot minute or two. I've been doing absolutely nothing lately sociable, except sometimes my friend Jesse James invites me over for dinner, movies, and NES games likes tetris. His wife seems nice, and it's odd visiting and spending the night over at someone's house when it's not "We should be quiet, my mom and dad are going to sleep in a couple minutes." It's, "We should be quiet, my wife has work tomorrow and she needs to get some sleep." So yeah, yay adulthood and oddness. Jesse's and Trisha (the wife) are kinda cool to hang out with because they seem so much more real than everyone else. They're nearly married, they have problems, they argue, they laugh, they make stupid jokes and and laugh not because of the joke but because they know the joke's stupid. They treat me good, and feed me better. I also think they think I'm lonely, which I kind of am I guess. I'm not really lonely for socializing though, I've always been able to do that just fine online. It's just who I am, I'm a hermit by nature, even people in my own family say so. Really the only type of socializing I truly want is relational. I'd like to start dating again, but without a car and access to attractive women, it's hard to. It seems like Georgia and South Carolina lack large amounts of home-grown good-lookers, or if they are, they're like a step away from being brutally retarded. Oh well, so it goes. Thanks to Ricky (as always) I've found new music I enjoy, Mindless Self Indulgence. I even have all of their albums (again thanks to Ricky and his never faltering, stoically downloading computer.) The music is extremely hateful, angry, usually fast paced, and downright funny. It sounds bad that music like that would be amusing, but the group has made genuinely good music, even if they outright advocate everything bad that they could think of and they try to represent the most immature aspects in human nature. It's good stuff, I highly suggest it to everyone. I think the thing I like most is, they don't just go for one style of music, each one is different. So I can listen to like five albums, and I never get tired of the sound they offer, because it's like I'm listening to a full range of stuff. I have cable internet now by the way, it's why I'm blatently online at all times now. Im almost always on trillion, but I usually just keep the away flag on. Anyways, I think this is good enough for now, I'm going to do something else. Hope you all are having a good one. PS: The areas I've been working on for over a year on for DM went in today. Within the hour the game crashed and has not come back yet. In the words of Rauken, "Wow, your areas caused Meshol." But that aside, I'm so proud of my areas. So many people were pissed.

Update
Not much has been happening. Nor do I really expect that to change. I guess I'm a bit lonely, video games are slowly but surely losing their appeal to me, and I'm sleeping more than I used to, though still nowhere near what I technically should. I'll be signed up for classes soon (if all goes well) I plan on taking courses in computer programming. And if that works out, I'll either take some advanced classes in that, or start another small degree with either council work or possibly computer hardware and repair. My faces have moved progressively forward, it's almost amazing to see what I create now as compared to those first few model heads, but there's still plenty of room for improvement. I'm ready to come home for a while, and it would be nice to relax while there. But I know that won't happen; not in the last few times I've been home has it happened. But at least I'll get to be with a few old friends, celebrate their birthdays, see the girls graduate. So I guess this is what it's like to be an adult. The excitement is gone, and now it's time to settle into life so it can zoom by quicker till I hit middle age and start things over again. Semper cal.

Thoughts
You know, thinking it over, and also reviewing livejournal posts for like the last I'd say month, of my friends, it really stands out that Christen is one of my most mentally stable friends from school. I'm going to really miss not having her around as much. It's so easy to simply leave and not really notice when you're so far away from life in Florida. You get used to everyone being fucked up and crazy (Army People) And seriously reflecting on some of the times I've spent with her in the past, it's really crazy to think that she managed to be in that realm of life where you can act crazy, but you don't seem like you have a full body twitch and ADD. So, that being said, if you're my friend and your name is not Christen, do not take offense, as this post is not directed at anyone negatively, (Eslyn you're pretty damn mentally stable too :P) really this is just my way of letting Christen know she's in my thoughts and not always just the perverse way *wink*. But yeah, much props yo, don't change please. Few others can pull off Classy Insane. Current Mood: thoughtful | | 12:56 pm |
Briar, if you can contact me somehow that'd be great. I'm almost done with my training and I'll finally have some free time soon, and I'd like to finally finish my work on the city on DM. I know you haven't been as active as you used to, but if you could at least get ahold of me by email or phone, that'd be nice of you. Thanks. 352-206-0935 LordXalias@msn.com | | Monday, December 5th, 2005 | | 12:32 pm |
Grev
I lost a friend today that none of my friends or family knew. He was a large impact on me, taught me more than even I probably realise, and it cannot be told how much I'll miss him. He deserves more than mere words in his memory, but unfortunately it's all I have to give him. Grev's passing probably signifies the breaking of one of the last reasons I stayed with Daedal for a long time (I know everyone says that, but let's face it, he was a large part of many people's lives) I wish I could have gotten to talk to him at least one more time, but the time for that is past. His last words to me were, "Mammeh loves you." It's odd that such a simple and mildly retarded phrase can give me such comfort now that he's gone. Goodbye Grev, for what it's worth, and for all my lateness. Current Mood: discontent | | Monday, November 28th, 2005 | | 12:18 pm |
Thoughts of a Monday
Not much going on, I ate chicken on thanksgiving, as well as fish butter on triskits (or however you spell that cracker wannabe). Either way, I'll be home soon enough. Time has made me ponder which of the people I left will be any kind of happy to see me return, even if shortly. It's kinda depressing, but really, the people I who want to see me, they're the ones I want to see anyways. If other people don't want to, they don't have to really. I'm never happy to lose contact with someone, but sometimes there's really no choice when the road forks and you both have to go different directions. For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, then good for you, odds are you still want something to do with me. If on the other hand you feel that feeling coming on, then I'm sorry that somewhere along the lines we took different roads. If it helps, I have a cell phone, even if you don't like calling and blocked my number through your provider. You'll be getting a present in the mail anyways if I can find the money and I can remember where the hell I put your damn address. Happy Holidays.

No time to talk, too much to do. Making preparations for my birthday in two weeks, working out, studying for my upcoming counciling tests, as well as nursing of course, but that goes without saying. Also working on a plane ticket home and teaching myself to code C and C++. Wish me luck all you wangsters, gangsters, and Christen.

Got'o'mighteh I'm Vain
It's true, I am vain. Just realised it for the complete truth a few days ago. Apparently, now that I'm not as fat as I used to be, all the inhibitions about having high standards of physical appearance have left me. So huzzah for that. I apologize if that offends anyone, but let's face it, if you're a friend of mine, odds are you aren't ugly to begin with, because, vain as I am, I only associate with primarily good looking people, as it makes me feel both better about myself, and the world in general. So, what brought this on? Absolutely nothing, I simply had nothing better to say, except that I'm currently learning in class about patient entry interviews (and eventually therapeutic and counciling style ones as well) This ought to be fun for me, as I like to think of myself as mildly empathic, and genuinely want to help people, even if I hate most people in general. I like to think my hate for people comes second to my desire to make them less hate worthy. I miss the Thespians, especially the seniors (No offense Heather, you've always been a senior in my heart). Oh well, gonna have to hook up with them when I roll in for Christmas. Sorry my posts are infrequent, but the speed of life is picking up, and it's becoming hard to maintain things. I'm currently sick and can eat little more than crackers and trisquits without making things worse. So yeah, pity me. Much love to the rest of you, hopefully we'll talk soon. If you want to talk and I haven't called you, odds are I don't have your phone number and you should post it here now. So do so, or forever hold your silence. Oh, and if anyone knows it (including her) someone get me Rachel's number. Current Mood: artisticCurrent Music: Duran Duran - The Taste of Summer | | Wednesday, September 14th, 2005 | | 1:05 pm |
I'm tired.
I drank a 12 case of Dr. Pepper over the weekend. My battle buddies drank 12 packs of beer. We then fell asleep in the hotel room. Lyle almost had sex with Conran. It was a good weekend. Current Mood: accomplished | | Sunday, September 4th, 2005 | | 4:50 pm |
It's me again.
Alright quick update since I spent far too much time commenting on other people's journals and not enough flirting about the internet searching for giggles to lighten my soul. I find myself as always knee-deep in social problems. It seems the ever encompassing social aspects of highschool have followed me to AIT, as I find myself with an oddball outcast of society room mate, and a battle buddy named Rebecca Voss who has dedicated herself to having passionate and feral sex with me as a final measure of breaking herself from her, what I can only assume is now, ex-fiance. So what does a man do when he hates the very existance of the man who sleeps in the bunk several feet from his, and the battle buddy that he is supposed to make sure nobody is shooting at is planning ways to pull him off to the side to silently seduce and assault his whatnot? That's right, get mad fucked up and wake up to a couple nasty ass smuts he found in the bar! Er, I mean, read his soldier's guide and school textbooks so as to avoid temptation and live up to all the army values... >_> yes, that will do nicely. But seriously, hopefully something comes to a head soon so the stress of my 24 hour job, as well as these ever present social problems don't cause me to do things I wouldn't normally do, like be late for a formation, or kick the ass of the retarded guy Burass (pronounced Ber-us, though I call him Bare Ass) who lives one door down in my pod. *Sigh* Much love to all the people who need it, and none for the rest of you wankers. Except Grev, he still gets some dispite being a wanker. Current Mood: apatheticCurrent Music: Duran Duran (I have no idea what the song is called) | | Wednesday, August 31st, 2005 | | 12:07 pm |
Not much time around today, but sufficed to say, things are going decent, if a bit rushed. I'm now required to go to two sessions of PT (physical training) per day. I'm more exhausted now than I was even in basic. I've already lost ten pounds during just AIT (bringing the total to 160). So yeah, pray for me.

Hooah!
Not much time to update, but let's go ahead and get strasight to business: Thanks for the warm welcome back everyone, I missed all of you, seriously. A few things of note I need to see about though: 1. The status of my imm on DM, I don't need it now, but I ned to know if I no longer have a spot on DM for building, because if so then I'll go ahead and scrap the ideas I came up with during basic. 2. Any care package is welcome, music CDs are like gold here though, as well as phone cards. 3. As soon as I get my cell phone back I'll go ahead and post my number for it so people can contact me, I'd really like to hear from all of you, but we have limited time on the pay phones here (albeit more than at basic) and I normally reserve it for my parents for serious business. 4. I think that's it, but it's all important. If you really want to brighten my day, make a post on here explaining to me exactly what you did while I was away. Good times, bad times, fun times, drunk times (you know who you are). That's about it for now then, hopefully I can make it on by tomorrow to catch any replies that might exist by then. Much love y'all. - Andrew Tyler Mullikin Current Mood: busyCurrent Music: Yo-Yo-Ma | | Friday, August 19th, 2005 | | 12:20 pm |
That's Right Biotches, Daddy's Home
Alright, I'm back, kinda. I'm using a military computer in one of the numerous labs here, but the point is I'm here. So first thing's first; I'm alive, I survived basic, and didn't do that badly either. I've been here in AIT for about a week now, and it's incredible after being in basic for 2.5 months how you can get uysed to things. In AIT they treat you more like a human being again, unlike in basic where you were literally worth less than the equipment you wore more the time. We get more freedom, and soon I'll even be able to get my cell phone back so I can call some of you wankers again. A few things I'd like to say first off so that things are taken care of before I start using this as an actual journal again: 1. Whoever can do it for me, someone at DM let everyone know I'm alive. If you talk to someone you know would care if I exist or not (haha, very funny, but they do exist) let them know I'm doing alright and plan to be back soon. I should have net connections within the upcoming 3-4 months. 2. Which brings me to my second point, Briar, please take charge of my Shangrila character if you can. If it's already deleted that's fine I'll fix things later. 3. My thespian (hahaha, thesbians) friends; I'm alive, rejoice and make merry, and nudity and all that. Much love, I've missed hanging with you guys more than you'll ever understand. I miss the company of a large gaggle of giggly highschool girls. But I suppose that's just something you can't outgrow. Hope everything is going alright for you. I still plan to impregnate Heather, it is now on my top 3 life goals list, marrying Christen is also on that list. 4. My new address for people who want to send me stuff/letters/anthrax is: PV2 Mullikin, Andrew T. Echo Company 187th Medical 91X 2051 Harney Rd. Fort Sam Housten TX 78234 That should be correct, but if a letter you send is returned to you saying invalid address, post on here telling me as such. I plan to confirm it tonight with my drill sergeant, but for now it should be right. I hope to hear from many of you soon. And if I don't, then fine, be that way, I don't love you anymore either. For now that's about it. Everyone stay safe and post when you can. I'll call when I can, and post on here as regularly as I can. I should at least be able to check on the posts people put on here every few days, so contacting status with my friends and family has just raised from red (sucky) to amber (not nearly as sucky). Much love all. - Andrew Tyler Mullikin PS: You can send care packages now, please God do so. And pictures too. Holla holla. Current Mood: accomplished | | Wednesday, June 1st, 2005 | | 1:40 am |
A Bit Belated
Not exactly the best time of the day, but the only time left. Soon I will leave home and comfort behind in trade for basic training. A potentially life changing event. I've said most all of my goodbye, and accomplished about all the goals I'd realisticly set out for before leaving, so I leave without regret. I also leave without fear, without inhibition. I want this to happen, otherwise it would not have, and thus I can only look forward to the times when this will pay off for me. This will be the first step in the adult section of my life. I'll be working towards financial security, financial freedom, and social development. So to those who may feel sad for me being gone, also try to be happy that I'm taking the needed first step towards making myself something worth being sad to have lost. And of course, never forget me. If that means loving, hating, or a nice happy mixture of the two, it doesn't bother me, just always keep me in mind, because odds are, if you feel strongly enough to hate or love me, then odds are I won't be forgetting you. I love most of you, some more than others. Heather, stay pure, don't let my casual use of sexual ennuendo lead you to believe I have any less respect or care for you intimately. I look forward to coming back to see you. Christen, keep an eye on Heather from time to time, try not to let her get into too much trouble. Jay, keep an eye on the mud, keep the twinks at bay. Ricky, wank less, your eyes will thank you. Justin, you crazy midget, I'll miss the hell out of you. Nowhere else will I find a person who manages to look both goth and hippy at once, and meshed so well. Grev, you can't read this, but keep up the good fight so you can outlive us all. Friends of Grev that I never managed to get very close to, I wish I'd been able to remedy that and get close, but I met you at an unfortunate time in my life, hopefully when I get back we'll be able to fix that though. Jo, see the comment for Ricky and apply as needed. Oh, and send me an email about details for the fetish community, I might need to join that. Eslyn, I have no advice, but then, I seriously don't think you'd need mine, I've always thought you have things together better than I ever will. Hilly/Charlsye, don't give up on drama please, you need to keep it alive and out of bad hands. You know who I'm talking about. Or at least I assume you do. Rachel, I didn't realise till literally several minutes ago you had set me as a friend and I seriously have no idea if I spelt your name right. Either way, you're the hottest girl in school and always have been. I'll defend that to anybody who'd dare challenge it. Lucas, sweet Jesus dude, take life in stride before it strides its nice big ass boots all over you. Seriously, things are far funner if taken lighter. Love to all, especially the midgets. Yes Heather, that means you. Current Mood: complacentCurrent Music: This Is My Emergency | | Thursday, May 5th, 2005 | | 7:39 pm |
Slowly it dawns on me just how much I hate people. Granted I want to help them, and definitely study them, as it interests me to find out what buttons brings about what reactions in people, but still, I really do hate the majority of people. Maybe my need to help people is really just a deep resolve to show people what's wrong with them, and in fact is a negative need rather than a positive one. Oh well, whatever the case, fuck people. On a side note, I'm in a good mood today. Current Music: Nightwish - Dead Boy's Poem | | Sunday, April 24th, 2005 | | 12:15 pm |
