Fun in June 2009

By -
Month was another fun month and going out with the BFF. It also started to get warm enough for pool and beach weather. And I meet my now boyfriend on June 6! Here are some more pictures from our nights out, beach and pool time.

Another night at Ultra 88. This is the night I met Bob, I didn't get any pictures with him on that first night, but his hand did make it in to the left side of the below photo, LOL.


Kristen turned 21 when we were overseas so she had never been to the Casino. SO we took her to Mohegan sun for some dinner, Slots and Ultra 88 of Course. We feed her tons of drinks and got her to throw up in the bathroom! Ha

Playing Slots, we didn't do so well!

Another weekend Ann and I decided it was a girls night out with some high school friends and friends from Ann's work. We got a hotel room and went to LBD (little blak dress night) at Ultra 88 of Course. This was definetly an interesting night! And tons of fun.

Ann, Me and Kelly (we all went to Elementary, Middle & High school together).

Pregaming at Lucky's (of course) before going to Ultra 88.


Also in June, New Kids on the Block had there reunion tour at Mohegan Sun. So Ann and I went with some girls from high school. It brought me back to the old days, but I didn't know any of their new songs!

I got Emma her own Yoga Mat and Kids Yoga Video. She likes to do Yoga to unwind after school.

Anthrax shots suck!

By -
On Friday we had a three mile road march with our IBA and Weapons. Luckily it wasn't timed and we didn't have to do it in formation. I am the second shortest person in the unit, so I have really small strides. It took me an hour and 20 minutes to finish. I just took my time. Normally on the PT test I walk 2.5 miles in 35 minutes. But I was in no rush to finish with a 17 pound vest and 8 pound weapon. To top off the day we got anthrax shots. It was my first one in a series on 6 shots. Let me tell you it feels like they are trying to kill me or something! The actual shot didn't hurt, I could barely feel the need go in. about 20 seconds after I got the shot my arm felt like it was on fire! That only lasted for about 2 minutes and then I was good to go, until yesterday. I looked at the spot where I got the shot and it is a huge bump and red spot there. It is also really sore. I swear I also felt like I had a rapid heart beat all day yesterday. I talked one of my other fr

The M2 .50 Caliber Machine Gun

Yeah I did it. Today I got to learn to break down, put together and Engage targets with the M2 50 Caliber Machine Gun (nicknamed the Ma Deuce). These weapons are usually the ones you'll see mounted on a HUMVEE during convoys in the desert. Again this was mt first time, seeing, touching and firing this weapon. Let me give you some background. It Weighs 84 pounds (I'm 112), It's 65 inches long (I'm 61.5 inches). So I thought the charging handle on the M249 was bad, this was worse. I had to put both feet on the tripod and pull back the charging handle with both hands and that was still a struggle. Taking it a part wasn't many steps, but the bolt was heavy and you had to use a lot of strength to put the spring back in. So when I finally got to the simulator to fire it, I had pretty tight shot groups, but my contacts kept moving around in my eyes and they got so blurry at the end that I couldn't see the targets. This weapon gets 119 rounds to qualify and you need to
