Long time no see,Tumblr.
So much has changed. Don’t know when my last update was,but. I’ll try to give a fairly short summary of what’s going on,I could use the vent. I don’t even know where to start. I’m engaged,to my best friend nonetheless. I’ve never loved anyone like I love her. My house flooded in Harvey. It was pretty much a complete loss. Since then it’s been gutted,and all that’s up is sheetrock. I lost my ‘70 Monte Carlo,and my ‘99 Mercedes SLK in it,and my fiancee lost her car as well. Everything 2 1/2 feet off the ground and below was completely ruined. We threw out half of our life,and the other half got flipped upside down. The first week I was unnaturally okay with the situation,but after that,the shock wore off,and I wasn’t okay for a while after that. We’ve since found a new place on the other side of town,it’s a nice duplex,but the neighbors are shit. Well,the mother is shit,the others are bearable. Their dogs are the worst,cannot stand tiny yap dogs. My fiancee joined the military in July-ish,and got shipped off to basic at the end of September. I haven’t seen her since then,we’ve been able to talk on the phone maybe 4 times,and send letters as often as we want. I miss her more than life itself,it’s been so lonely. It’s a weird feeling,going from always having people around and feeling included to wanting to be alone and separating yourself from everyone. Even at a party,I feel like the only person in the room. I can’t wait to get her back. She recently developed back problems,and they gave her the option of chaptering out (leaving) or,waiting 6 months in the med bay,and starting basic training all over again,and she decided to come home. I can’t wait to have her back,I never understood why they called it “your other half” until she was gone,and I found it hard to function on a daily basis. I was working at Walmart as nighttime maintenance,but just recently got canned due to a system error. My attendance was at 6,which meant I could take off 2 days before I got fired,but the system glitched out,and didn’t update until after I looked at it,in reality I had 1 call in left,and thus I went over. Not only was I maintenance,but I was Asset protection,stocker,cart pusher,and manager sometimes. My manager was almost in tears when I did the out process. Since then,the store has gone to shit,my old coworkers are all upset that they fired me,some are talking of quitting. The store looks horrible,nothing is stocked in the bathrooms,ect. Not my problem anymore. Just recently bought a ‘93 Subaru Impreza wagon,it’s pretty cool. Also have a ‘05 Honda Shadow,but it’s remained stagnant in my garage,don’t have the money or energy to put into it. Lately I’ve taken to drinking,sometimes a little too much. I call it selective alcoholism. In some cases,it’s just true alcoholism. Working on qutting smoking cigarettes,it’s going okay. When rolling on adderall,it’s hard to say no,but any other time,I can usually find something to preoccupy my hands. It’s not the nicotine that I’m trying to get away from,it’s the habit of needing to do something with my hands. Anyways,that’s all I feel like typing tonight,see you in a couple months,or something.
