Merry Christmas fuckers

So no Christmas cheer, Japes?

Vyenna looks like she got a little to close to the candy cane this Christmas.

 

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. It's a little late but this was easily the busiest holiday year I've ever had.

 

Nu är glada julen slut, slut, slut.
Julavataren bäres ut, ut, ut.
Men till nästa år igen
Kommer den vår gamle vän,
Ty det har den lovat.

 

I'm starting a competition: I want to know who had the worst Christmas/New Year's eve, and then I'll tell you what's jappened this december, and we'll see who wins! Winner gets a wonderful date with Jarinor (anything beyond that is his say).

 

I was on call both Christmas and New Years. Thankfully, there was no call-outs, but I couldn't get out and do anything either. Add a writers' block to that and it made for intermidably long evenings.

The only real break was watching the neighbor's yappy dog get chased by a bleach-bottle rocket.

 

Christmas for me sucked. I was the only person to get a present (my dad sent a Christmas care package to me from New Hampshire), so I felt like a douchebag when I went into the living room to open up the box. Admittedly, it was a pretty sweet gift, but since noone at home had any money (including me) for Christmas, nobody else got anything.

New Year's eve was pretty sweet, until I ate the hot dog. I had been drinking constantly until 11:30 PM, so I had a nice buzz going until around 2 in the morning. However, I ate a hot dog that wasn't completely done. It was warm enough to wake up all of the bacteria inside of it, and I never let it finish plumping on the roller-grill.
Starting at 2:30, I threw up once an hour for four hours, and then passed out until 8 in the morning. I ate half a bagel, and ended up feeling like shit for the next three hours until I got home.
I found out that I had a fever of 103, and I was bedridden for two days. I still eat hot dogs, but I make sure they're done. I'm lucky I didn't get an E. coli infection. (shitting blood for a week doesn't sound like fun)

 

My Christmas was nothing special, but it was a big impovement over last Christmas which was spent in Iraq.

 

Well...
Was with the family and relatives, oppened present for about one hour and got really good stuff.

All in all, the chrismas was great.



And New years Eve I spent with my girl.
I say no more.



Yea, I know, crappy contributtion for the contest, but I can't lie.

 

My Christmas/post-deployment gift to myself was a new rifle. It's an FN PBR XP:




Also got a Swarovski Z-6 scope to top it off. It's pretty badass.

 

There's a 17th century battle ax/ musket that looks pretty manly...but was pretty impractical as far as weapons go.
I'm pretty deadly with a deck of playing cards, myself; I managed to put an entire deck into a wall of foam insulation.

 

For Christmas I got Guitar Hero 3 from my in-laws along with one seriously pissed off wife because women are no substitute for Guitar Hero.

 

It's very true.

Well, I wish I was that lucky.
