PostHeaderIcon What the hell……???

Today was another one of those days at work where you have to ask yourself “What the hell….” because things are so fucked up that its a wonder we ever get anything done in the military. I sat around for 8 hours today while we tried to figure out what the hell was going on. Who knew that people could be so fucking dumb. Why is it that we can go do something that we have done at least 50 times before and yet every time we do it somebody has to go and do it differently? Why can’t we just do things the same way every time? Turn over is always a fucking mess and we have been doing this since they started 2 crew submarines fucking decades ago. Its the same shit every time, yet somebody always has to do it differently. We even have a checklist of the shit that needs to be done yet nobody can follow it. I’ve only been active duty for 5 years now and certain things get old quickly. Turn over with the other crew is one of those things.

It’s also hard to rely on your supervisor when he has no clue what the hell is going on and when he can’t find his ball bag and say “Go home be back at X time tomorrow morning.” How in the hell do you get a position of leadership with the authority to put down liberty and you still can’t do it because you are too much of a pussy and you are afraid of getting yelled at by the chief?? When the chief gives you the authority to put down liberty, your first priority is to get the work done so that you can get everyone the hell home. I don’t know about you guys but I love my wife and kids and I want to spend as much time as possible at home with them. Yes, my job comes “first” but for fuck’s sake, I wanna go home before dinner on the boat. I’m a fucking Sonar Technician and my maintenance is easy as hell. There is no reason as to why I should be on the boat past 1500 (3 pm) at the latest. The only time I should be on the boat for dinner is when I am on duty. I hope to god and any other higher deity that my next command has smarter individuals who can think for themselves and can say “Go home and be back at X time tomorrow morning” without being a bitch.

I just really hate having to come home and an hour later put my kids to bed because I was at fucking work all day doing nothing when I could have been at home with my family. 15 years to go and at some point I will be a supervisor with a ball bag and I will learn to take the heat for letting my guys go home.

PostHeaderIcon Sacrifice

Sacrifice is defined as follows: –verb (used with object)

7.

to make a sacrifice or offering of.
8.

to surrender or give up, or permit injury or disadvantage to, for the sake of something else.
9.

to dispose of (goods, property, etc.) regardless of profit.
So now that I have defined it for you in the use of a verb, let me ask all of you a question. Those who know me know that I am currently employed with the U.S. Navy on board a nuclear submarine. Answer me this: “Do I not SACRIFICE enough for you guys? Do I not give up time with my family to go under water and do my job to protect your freedoms? Do I not sacrifice enough of my own energy that I have to muster up more when I get home to play with my kids? Do I not sacrifice my weekends to go to work so that I can make sure the boat goes out to sea on time? Do I not sacrifice 1 night every 3 days to stay on the boat and keep it safe while terrorists lurk in the darkness? Have I not sacrificed enough of MY time away from MY FAMILY to complete my mission?
If you honestly thing that I DO NOT sacrifice enough to keep your sorry ass safe from terrorists, then you are sadly mistaken. I bust my ass on a constant basis to make sure that your freedoms are upheld and that you enjoy that medium rare steak that you will stuff into your gluttonous mouth every goddamn night. I SACRIFICE enough time with my family every year to make sure that my mission is completed. I SACRIFICE enough time with my family to miss holidays and birthdays and anniversaries because my mission needs to be completed. I SACRIFICE time spent at home so that the boat can get out to sea. I SACRIFICE fun time with my family because the job comes first.
Now I have to SACRIFICE my time with my oldest child because his dad is throwing a bitch fit because he isn’t getting his way. I have to SACRIFICE spending time with Carter because I feel that, in the best interest of Carter, he will have a better education if he stays up here in Washington. My other two children have to unknowingly SACRIFICE time with Carter because it’s better that Carter stays here for his education. My wife has to SACRIFICE her time with Carter because his dad is a complete and utter douche bag. Yet, according to him, we SACRIFICE nothing and he SACRIFICES everything.
Let me give you the lowdown on this guy. He is an ex-Marine who lives with mommy and his “whole world” revolves around his son. He works nights at a strip club as a bouncer and again lives with mommy. He has no car of his own, he does nothing. So how is it that I SACRIFICE nothing? Why should I give up Carter for 9 months out of the year because daddy throws a temper tantrum? Why should I SACRIFICE what I do for Carter because daddy can’t have his way?
I even gave Carter’s dad the easiest parenting plan in the world because it benefited Carter and not me. What loving parent gives up the ability to see their child during the school year? I did because it was for the best interest of Carter. I SACRIFICED spending time with Carter because his education is more important than what I want. So you might ask why I am typing out this post about SACRIFICE. Ask away because I SACRIFICE and because I care what happens to my stepson. I SACRIFICE because I want Carter to have a good education. I SACRIFICE because I AM A PARENT and MY KIDS mean more to me than MY OWN WANTS. My kids come first and that’s the way it has been for the last year and a half. I put their needs before my own because that’s what a good parent does. I SACRIFICE sleep because my son wakes up and needs to eat. I SACRIFICE doing the things that I want to do so I can take my kids to the park and spend time with them. I SACRIFICE way more than any civilian parent, besides my wife, because I deploy to the sea and I don’t come home at the end of the day. No civilian will ever know the rush of emotion that passes over you when you come back from sea and your kids run up to you screaming “Daddy” as soon as you walk in the door.
If you ever have any doubt as to what I have to SACRIFICE to keep my kids happy and my family together, reread this post and maybe it will sink in. Maybe you can understand what I have to SACRIFICE in order to do the things I do and what I have to SACRIFICE so that I can do my job and do it to the best of my ability. Any military man or woman will tell you all about SACRIFICE and how much easier that civilians, who have never been in the military, have it.

PostHeaderIcon Vandalism

Who here thinks its okay to vandalize anything?? Nobody?? That’s what I thought. I only ask this question because some asshole thought it was okay to vandalize my car. I didn’t even do anything to his truck(it was a piece of shit S10 pickup) except ACCIDENTALLY bump his truck with my car door while I was trying to get my son, Damen, out of the car. This guy got pissed off and said I purposely hit his “ride” as he put it. His “ride” wasn’t really that spectacular anyways and my car would have whipped his car’s ass any day of the week.

So I took my wife and kids inside Taco Bell to get some lunch and this guy got out of his truck and ripped my mirror off my car so that it was dangling by the electric cord that powers my mirror. I can’t believe that something so simple as a bump would drive someone to rip off an exterior mirror of a car. My mirrors are not cheap. It costs me $70 every time I want to replace that mirror. So I had to go out and burn roughly $100 dollars for a mirror and a serpentine belt. I needed the belt anyways but that’s not the point. I wanted to buy the belt without buying the mirror but I can’t drive my car without a driver side exterior mirror. My day was going great until that asshole decided that since I told him I wasn’t giving him my insurance card for accidentally bumping his truck, that it was okay to break my mirror.

What the fuck really goes through people’s heads when they decide to do things like this?? I’m not a mean or angry person but that was just fucking ridiculous!! So I’m, of course, all pissed off and bent out of shape and I go back into Taco Bell to get some food and try and cool off. I catch Eli trying to steal Carter’s juice and I thumped him on the head and told him to sit down. He sits on the floor, which wasn’t what I wanted, so I picked him up and put him in the booth. Next thing I know, I had some stupid cunt come up and try to tell me how to treat my kids and started yelling at me and asked me if that was how I treat my kids when I’m at home too. It took everything I had to not punch her in the face because I even tried to be nice and tell her that it wasn’t any of her business and to please leave me and my family alone. She then proceeded to tell me, that since I decided to grab my son by the throat, which I never do because I know better, that I made it her business and she was going to get into my face about it. I looked at who she was with and told her to shut the fuck up and get back to her kids and fucking eat her food because it really wasn’t her issue or her place to fucking yell at me. I then looked at her kids and I think her fat ass mother or friend, really doesn’t matter, that I am sorry that they had to listen to this and I grabbed all of the kids and walked the fuck out of Taco Bell and packed the kids and the wife in the car.

Who in the hell gives people permission to start pushing their noses into other people’s business?? If that bitch would have known what the fuck was going on, she probably wouldn’t have said anything. I have been trying not to yell and not be an asshole to other people but I am to the point where I don’t give a fuck anymore and I’m just going to be a complete asshole to everyone except for family. They seem to be the only people that actually give a shit and listen to me.

Thank you all out there in Internet Land for listening to my rampage about vandals and stupid cunts that don’t know how to keep their mouth shut about things that don’t pertain to them. I love you guys for giving me your eyes and ears and for the understanding that everything that happened today was not my fault.

PostHeaderIcon Football Time Again

So I am writing this post from my Blackberry while sitting at the ferry terminal after the Seahawks first preseason game. I went to the game with my buddy Steve because he had an extra ticket and I had a blast. We were pretty much in the nosebleed seats but I could see the entire field and it was an awesome game. I am a little hoarse from the screaming that I did. The Seahawks won and there will be pictures as soon as Steve uploads them to his computer and puts them on Facebook. If you have to ask, yes I will be jacking the pictures from his Facebook but its okay because I am in them and I was there. The final score was 20 to 18 in favor of the Seahawks. We were 1 point shy of getting free pancakes from IHOP. We are getting free beef jerky and a slurpee from 7 elevn though. I’m not a Seahawks fan but I will definitely go and watch another game here because the experience alone is just awesome! If you haven’t been to a game, buy tickets and go to one because I think you might enjoy it.

PostHeaderIcon Updates???

My wife tells me that I have more things to update on here so I leave it up to her to go through and figure out what it is that I need to update. So if you start getting lots of random updates are you loving people out there, just wait until they kinda quit and then come check it out. I’m also going to spend time researching a lot of things so that I can make this site a little more friendly for use. I’m still learning it but I also want to learn some web type things so that I can write codes and things like that. Looking forward to writing more and giving you what you came to see.
