  Ok, ok, I admittedly am a slacker. :) There, I said it. I have been preoccupied with preoccupation for a week or so, so that is that. Now I have returned (applause). I hope everyone had a nice 4th of July weekend. Mine was unbelievably eventful. I did more traveling and site seeing than I have the entire time I have been here this weekend alone. I am trying to think about what has happened of late. I broke up with Natasha (the Russian), or t be more precise, she broke up with me because she loved me and saw no future with me because I am not planning to live here forever (figure that one out); right after I got back from Florida, in fact. I had a lot of in depth conversations with her, and various other "ex's", but I simply could not comprehend exactly what they wanted, why they wanted it, and what strings were attached, so I stepped back again to think. Everyone wants a serious relationship, and that after a week, so I am at a loss. I am a bit more "guarded" than before I suppose, but who knows. Perhaps people should stop trying to "save" and "change" me. I need time for this type thing, and when it happens, I will know.
That was early week before last. I did not sleep so well on Wednesday; got to bed at about 0100 a.m., and had to get up again at 0400 for a day shift. My 8 hour shift turned into a 12 hour shift, I went home and worked out, and then had a friend over that Thursday night to bullshit with and catch up on some stuff. No sleep that night either. Friday rolls around, and I am the Devil because I have not slept in days, but it is Friday, so lighten upyahya? :) Ok, so I did, made it through the day, and then went out to volunteer at the 4th of July Bash they have every year here. It is a little "fair" of sorts, but it is something for everyone to do, and all of the kids enjoy it. After that chore was done, I went to Kaiserslauturn with a friend. I have been there once since I have been here, and it was pretty lame, but I figured I would give it a shot again, so I did. It is still a bit weird to be in a foreign country, with all of the fests and such, but it is cool nonetheless. Anyway, I ended up seeing an Air Force girl on Friday that I had hung out with in the past, so we were going to hang out later after the fest.
That did not so much happen though. It was me and a friend, his girlfriend, and all of her friends, in the middle of 10,000+ people, crammed into 3 city blocks- a bit crowded. They sold 1 liter pitchers of beer for 3 Euro...I am sure you can imagine how the evening went. We finally ended up at a little pub at about 0200 in the morning where we were supposed to be waiting for this American chick and her friend.
I have a short attention span, so after about an hour, I started talking to someone else. Strangely, the other girl was not comfortable with this. I will never learn, I suppose. Anywho, stayed up all night that night as well, and then I drove back to Spangdahlem, and proceeded as planned. We drove to Masstritch, which is in Holland, went bar-hopping, saw some really cool art, got some food, and then ended up at a club called "Night Live".
Pretty cool, if I do say so myself. Although, the music was a bit odd, to say the least. They started off with 60's music, and then progressed all of the way past the 90's to typical R&B, which I detest. It is, however, conducive to mayhem and madness and all other kinds of debauchery, so we had a good time. I hooked up with some Italian chick there, and that was interesting to say the least. That night, after 5 days awake, I slept like a baby.
Will not be pulling that stunt again for awhile, I do not think. So, we somehow made it back to Germany alive and well, worked three days, recovered over the weekend, and now it is Tuesday, and all is well. A friend that I met in K- town stayed with me all week, not really sure what that was about, but she was on vacation, so it was cool with me.
Whatever...I was at work. A little much, but whatever. Anyway, she went home today, and then back to Poland. A weird week, at best, but she was happy, so I suppose one out of two happy is not bad. Well, that is a very condensed version of the last few weeks. Now, I am waiting for Mother and Dad to come visit at the end of the month, and then I suppose I will be forced to behave for awhile. Like i said, I have an extremely short attention span, and am soooooooo easily bored, it is pathetic; even I will admit to that, but I need a challenge, and something or soomeone to keep my interest. Who knows. Perhaps it is just around the corner. We can only wait and see.... PEACE!!!
