New Year's at Fort Drum, New York.

I'm free and I'm happy, I am free from your hatred,
I've parted from the part that I participated in
So I'm free. It was[n't] easy; I know nothing of your hatred
I've known and shone the light, and the darkness abated, so I'm free.
~Mr. Gordon Gano


Darth Dylan (as he's rechristened himself) and I drove from Martinsburg, WV to Ft. Drum, NY to visit my best friend Angela and her son Bailey. Dang, we had a great time. We stayed up there for 3 days, and gotta tell you, it was firckin C--O--LLLLLLLL--D! Forty degrees here in WV....fourteen in NY. I was told that Ft. Drum hosts soldiers from Alaska for cold-weather endurance training! ye gads and a javelina!

Now that I've unloaded the Prince of Fuckwad and am slowly moving on with my piecemeal life, I got a good look into the life that my dear friend is forced to suffer. She cohabitates with the second biggest fuckwad I've ever known. He is a certifiable pinchdick and needs an enema badly. She initially got back with him in order for Bailey to get to know his father, and to have that particular influence in his life, and it's been Titanic from Day One. Thank God, he's in the military so the benefits they are receiving are good. And she's having gastric bypass surgery! She's been overweight for a good portion of her young life, so this can't been nothing but a boon to her. So, dear Angela, good luck. You'll be good :)
