I think my computer has gremlins in it. I put all this money into it and read all the instructions and compared notes, but still it locks up every few hours. I’ve been building my own computers for well over 15 years. Now I know that the gigantic 20mb hard drive goes where it goes and the speedy 2mb of ram is seated correctly.

I am befuddled!

I just got a brand new external hard drive to back up my loads of soldier entertainment pictures but for some reason this task will have to wait until I can figure out this locking up thing.

Don’t know why I posted this, but what the hell. Bask in my frustration on this wonderful Monday.

Here is a cute computer geek poem I found.

A computer geek loved a girl who studies computer science.

He sent a letter, saying:

I LOVE YOU MORE THAN MY COMPUTER Believe me it is true …

You installed the best in me.

Your picture is always in my background.

You clicked my heart gently.

You drive me crazy when I see you.

Your love reset my life and deleted all the sadness in me.

You restored my kindness after I thought it was corrupted.

I’m always connected to you with more than 56 heart beat per second.

You hacked my brain and registered your name in it.

You are the only one that could navigate my feelings and explore my
emotions at the same time.

I feel lost when I try to call you and you are not responding.

I always feel you close to me when I shut down my eyes, or when I open
my windows waiting for you to pass.

You are the only one that can log into my heart and never log out.

I dream of being your only server as long as I live.

You don’t have to search for me, cause we are always linked to each
others.

I see your name everywhere, my front page, my homepage and all my
software.

I scanned my life and found that I’m only infected by you.

You are the virus I’d never remove, and why should I do?

Believe me it is true…

I love you more than my CPU!!!!

My book finally made it up on the Barnes & Noble site. So you can order it online or at your local Barnes & Noble. Just refer to the ISBN number.

If you frequent your local B&N, please ask them what they can do to get their stock full of Soldier Life books when it becomes available. See if they’d pre-order a bunch.

You ever find yourself proverbially dangling at the edge of a cliff? Where everything around you seems so overwhelming, and you can’t quite reach for safety. Life can be a tough son-of-a-bitch sometimes. I take it in strides. However, I think about what could have been or what might happen all the time. I am a glutton towards myself but that’s just me.

As far as I’m concerned, my life is nothing but a big test. I strive to be the best but can’t be everyday. We are creatures of many flaws. We just have to find a way to manipulate the flaws into a method that works for us. Compromise!

So what is the point of this post? The seamless and constant search for perfection is a fruitless effort. Settling is an excuse and to strive is endless. Philosophical as it may seem, life is truly what you make of it.
