No one likes a sissy. Here's the blog of a tough girl in a world where women are encouraged to be sweet and silly.
I recently went through knee surgery which is giving me a second chance at doing all the things that I loved again - I'm running, ro

Women in the Army
On Saturday night, I had one last huzzah! with the folks I’m training with – training ends on Thursday, and we ran out for one last bar hop. “Look around!” said Bill. “On girl, four guys. Typical Army ratio.” I sta...
Improved run
I think my knee is healing. I took two minutes off my run time, even though I haven’t worked on my run since I got here in early October. It must mean that things are healing down there in the old knee caps! Two minutes down – four more t...
It’s a party in the USA!
What possesses us to spend $4 for a small plastic cup of Long Island Ice tea? In the last few months, I’ve just wanted to dance. I’ve found a renewed love of clubbing – one that was diminished when there was no legit clubs available...

Civilian girls will wet their knickers for a guy in uniform. Guys… well, they don’t go nuts for the Army girls. I mentioned that maybe I should try dating more civilian guys to shake up my record of only ever dating military men and a col...
Brett
Even as isolated as Army Training is, the name Brett Favre still manages to leak into my consciousness. I’m no hard-core Football fan, but I’m so sick of drama in my personal life that my disdain for it has gone so far as to despise it in...
Agitation

The Flag Overpass
On Friday, SEPT 11th I had to drive to through the boring state of Kansas. The two hour drive is in typical Kansas fashion – long, flat and boring. This is not a happenin’ state. Seriously. Boring. About halfway through my drive, I came u...
