so, I'm going to get my first tattoo today, I'm fairly excited about it, though my parents are going to flip whenever they see it. No telling when they will first see it though...........
and becca - what are you obsessing about? how did the dentist go?
I'm getting a fleur-de-lis on the inside of my ankle
I tried to find a picture of the one I'm getting, but to no avail. When I went into the tattoo shop, I told him what I wanted and he pulled out a folder of fleur-de-lis designs and I picked the one that I liked the best.
It's a symbol of the city of New Orleans, so it's gonna be a little representation of where I'm from. I'll always have that place in my heart, whether I end up back there after school or not. When you first go to New Orleans, it has a tendency to get into your heart and stay there. Anyone who has never been should go, and anyone who has been knows exactly what I'm talking about.
uhm... i would like to see it with the help of a local.
bourbon street is a bit overrated, imo. dirty, sketchy, and smells funny.
but breakfast at mother's rocks.
Bourbon Street was much different before Katrina - I won't go back to Bourbon Street - but that is not what NOLA is about anyway - there is soooo much more to NOLA then that.

so I'm leaving for basic training june 11. craziness! after a long talk with a navy job counselor, i decided to go into the advanced electronics/computer field. because of the training required, its six years active duty. one month to get rid of most of my possesions and get my shit together...
Good luck, almostcertain! A friend of mine up and joined the navy randomly one day... after we had graduated college. I think I was the only person that he knew that wrote him during his training other than his mom. His letters were always so random and funny. Let us know if you need us inforoosters to write you while you're in training

Good luck in Great Lakes. While you're there just remember that your time in the Navy will not be anything like boot camp. Just get through that and it becomes like any other job. But congrats, I joined the Navy on a whim back in '94 to get similar training and it worked out great for my career.
What rating are you signing up for? When I was in (late 90's) the only six year obligations were CTs and nuclear ETs & MMs. I was a DP which was later merged with RMs and then renamed to IT.

Nice! I want a fleur-di-lis tattoo! Do you live in Baton Rouge now? I am moving there soon-ish. I live in NW LA right now, Shreveport., but going to LSU soon for grad school.

yea in due time, there is still wrapping on it now, and it's bleeding a little bit, but I'll have some pictures soon enough. He said it's going to brighten up a little bit as well, so the shading will be a little more evident. But that's gonna be about a week or two. I'll probably get some pictures up tomorrow.

My German Shepherd Dog sat at the front door watching something. finally I get up to take a look and I see something across the street. It was looking up at the wall of the house. I can see a squirrel on the brick wall and the dog is jumping up trying to get it.
Then I realized that most dog do not have bushy red tails. It was a fairly large fox. Now I live at least a half mile from the nearest openspace type thing. We do have a large water canal at the end of the block, but there is little to no vegetation adjacent to it.
We sat watching the fox and the squirrel having a stand off. Then a neighbor came out of a different house and the fox jumped the 42" fence as if it was nothing.
It was so Beautiful. Maybe my dog recognized that the fox was not a thread to her property and did not growl of anything. She hates squirrels and maybe she wanted to see the technique required to catch one. I hope the fox can pick up a couple of the small barking dogs in the neighborhood. They really bother my 75 lbs GSD. We call them "barking squirrels"
My family is coming to visit tomorrow. All of them. My parents, my brother, his wife, and their 22 month old twins. I'm excited to see my nephews, but it's going to be chaotic. They're all staying with me.
