Ah Mason...mason mason mason

The time has come, my little friends, to speak of many things. Of shoes and ships and sealing wax, of cabbages and kings...

Don't know why that has been in my head all day or what is has to do with anything, but thats how the wheels turn in the head of John

GREAT STINKIN NEWS!

For all you George R R Martin fans, Winter is coming...to HBO. The Song of Fire and Ice has been picked up by HBO and is in full swing. Filming begins in October(I think) and it is being filmed in Ireland.

So far it has been tight lips on cast and anything else that I would want to know...but this is progress and progress is good! I can't wait!

Once again I have to put a disclaimer on this as it is FAR from PG...but all you fans obviously know this and will know what to expect.

In other news...

My new RADAR is kicking my butt! It has been one thing after another and I have been busy busy busy.

My car is making progress slowly but surely...I now have a working speedometer, turn signals, windshield wipers(very important) and even a heater that works semi good!

Jump school is a definite go, barring any crazy injuries or nonsense, and I am getting super pumped. It will be a little hard because I won't see Audi for the three weeks followed by 2 more weeks of AT. So almost all of June will be Audi-less, which is very sad indeed, but I think we both can manage...this will be a good test to see how she could handle a deployment...I think she will pass with flying colors;)

Just so nobody says "I would have come if I had known" the invitation is extended...I will graduate from Jump school June 19th. It is a ceremony open to all guests and it would be neat to see. It is in Georgia so I understand, especially with the current economy, if nobody can make it. No pressure of course just an open invitation...I am trying to get Audi out there so it will be an early introduction to any that come...

if any of you are interested give me a call and I will get you all the necessary info.

April Awesomeness!!!

So far it has been a stinking awesome month.

First I had a Birthday! Audi and I went and watched Fast and Furious(not a bad flick) and went to Texas Roadhouse. I had a great steak and some tasty ribs and then Audi told our waitress(gurrr) that it was my birthday. They all came out and sang happy birthday and gave me this cheesy plastic cowboy hat. Definitely made me blush.

She also gave me a Barnes and Noble gift card...she is catching on quick:)

In other news I also got accepted into Airborne School...jump school! I leave may 29th and train for 3 weeks. I am pretty excited to jump out of airplanes!

I have also been spending a great amount of my time with the above mentioned Sweet Audi! We are having a great time getting to know each other and are starting to get a little more serious about our relationship. Fingers crossed people...I really like this one!

Oh and I'm not fat any more... Marines Corps says so! I made weight FINALLY!
