I Can Have Cookies For Fucking Dinner, Hot Dogs For Breakfast and Soda at 1A-Fucking-M.

Regardless of how much Army Life sucks sometimes; i.e. bullshit rules, being treated like a child, shitty hours (I got off work at 4am on a Saturday morning this week), the very real/imminent risk of bodily harm/death on a frequent basis, ect, ect... sometimes I love it.
I have met some great people, I have done some great things. I have learned a lot about the world and how life is not just so much more than the NoVA upbringing we all know and love. I mean I knew that there was much more to this world; I think we all did, but this is something else. Suffice to say that if you come from where I come from and you are on the path that many of us walk you will never understand.
And what's more, I like knowing that I have a place to sleep every night. I like knowing that I have my own income and that I work very fucking hard for every penny I get. And when I am not On the Job I don't have to answer to anyone. I am responsible for me and the buck stops there.
I am Master of all I Survey, King of my Domain.
