a start
a start Let’s see, where to start this blog off. Throughout the months as I am over here in Iraq I will keep posting on just thoughts and whatever might hit me at the time. Probably just use it as a place to vent and relax a little bit after a hard day at work. But I guess a little about me for starters. I am 30, I enlisted really late in life. The reason for this, well I was epileptic, I was actually born dead and somehow started to breath and have a heartbeat. Well soon after that I developed seizures. I suffered through them for the next 24 years of my life. Well during the time I struggled, my seizures were uncontrolled even with medication. In time I met a great woman who accepted me having seizures, believe me I lost a lot of friends and girls I cared about when they found out I had it. We got married, had a together, and well eventually they found a mass in my brian and gave me three options. To cut a long story short I had brain surgery and got cured of the seizures. Well I enlisted five years later, had to wait that long before I could enlist. Going through boot at 30 was not at all easy. During one of the trainings I broke my wrist which made it even more difficult to get through, but I did. I had them cut the cast off early so I could pass a PT test, did all my pushups on a broken wrist. Soon after that I went to AIT, graduated from that and got shipped to FT.Hood. now I am in Iraq just a month after graduating from AIT. During all this time I haven’t seen my family but two weeks during Basic, we got block leave for Christmas. All my experiences so far have been fun and interesting. I love it so far, but time will tell how long that will last. Recently though, things have been tough. Back at home my grandpa passed away after suffering for 2 years, then my sis went into the hospital as well as my uncle. And my wife’s first is missing in Canada right now, a run away. To say I am a weee little bit stressed is an understatement. Soon I will be going home on leave, in 3 weeks or so. Man do I need the break right now. As I said in this one post on a group, something about me and my wife. I am on here as a single account but listed as married, not because I am cheating on my wife, far from it. She has all my passwords and accounts, from this to emails. Heck this is actually her idea to come on here. So a long time before I met her she was a victim of , and for the longest time she refused to tell me how it affected her thinking I would leave her. She told me years into our marriage that every time we had sex it brought back those bad memories. I told her right then and there that we would never be having sex again, in truth been three years at this point now. She told me she didn’t want to put me through no sex for the rest of my life. Months of talking and this is what she wanted. Basically she is fine with friends with benefits type of arrangement. If people want to meet her or talk to her over the phone or webcam that is fine. So that is a bit about me and my wife and what is all that is happening right now. A lot but I guess it is a good starter post and more to come. |
