Army Wives

So I started watching "Army Wives" the other day since all my friends back home always talk about it. Amazing show - but not really what military life is like. From the wife's shoes anyways. Your all crazy if you think I answer the phone saying "Airman First Class Bunda's residence". I say "hello". And so do all the other wives. I dont know why that gets on my nerves while watching the show, but it does.

There is no such thing as a Jodi bar. And if there is one of those somewhere - im sure it came to be that way because of this show. Actually a jodi is a song that the soldiers sing while walking in formation together - mostly during training or boot camp. There are a lot of similarities from the show though. Like the officers having fancy dinners and ceremonies - but those dont involve the community.

Living on "base" or "post" is just like living in any other community - except your constantly yelling over the loud airplanes flying over your home, and you don't have to pay tax on anything you buy. Oh and you have to show your ID every time you come and go - which gets really annoying.

The hardest part about military life is your constatly letting go of the people you love. I can never take my family and friends with me, and the friends I make here will eventually move away also. Not even my husband can always be there, but you get used to it and you make it work. My son is the only constant person that will always be there every morning when I get up, and every night when I go to bed. For him I am very thankful.

Rapture talk

So I'm sitting here watching the news and eating peanut butter out of the jar when a couple of things cross my mind. One- has everyone in this world gone mad? Two- Who allowed this old man who obviously knows nothing about Jesus to preach in America? Three- I wonder if I will be sitting here eating peanut butter when Jesus does come? How embarassing.

Matthew 24:36 Of that day and hour no one knows, no, not even the angels of heaven, but the Father only.

Although I really would like to know when that is going to happen so I can buy a new outfit, not even Jesus knows when the rapture will happen. And also, people arent just going to magically dissapear. Everyone will know when its happening. So everyone needs to stop listening to some senile man who quite clearly belongs in a retirement home. And I honestly have no idea what people are talking about Zombies taking over.. but really people?? I dont think I need to do any sort of explaining when it comes to that theory.

Personally I think your all nuts.

May 19th

These are a couple of questions about marriage answered by kids I read in an email forward.

HOW WOULD YOU MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK?

Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a dump truck.

- Ricky, age 10

WHEN IS IT OK TO KISS SOMEONE?

The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn't want to mess with

that.

- Curt, age 7

When they're rich.

- Pam, age 7

These are obviously some smart children. In this "smart children" group, I would also like to include a little girl from the playground who told me that girls dont have guts.

Anyways nothing interesting has happened this week. Other than me spending an unhealthy amount of time watching Glee, and Dylan getting his hand stuck in the dishwasher. You know, the usual.
