Fifty Shades of Stupid

First of all, I'm going to 29 Palms next week! I'm really excited and it will definitely be fun (and probably a little bit intense...) The 4th of July is the one year anniversary of our first date, so that will be cute. Hopefully It will be an awesome 5 entire days with my Marine.

Second of all, I finally gave in and started reading Fifty Shades of Grey and I hate it! I decided the other night to figure out why everyone is talking about this book and I really don't understand. I mean yeah, it is very...explicit and those parts are very well written, but as for the rest of it, I'm so annoyed with it.
Dialogue is my favorite part of books. I love how I can basically see a conversation happening between two people before my eyes and I think that this is just so unrealistic...Sure, it's a book and the story doesn't have to be realistic, but at least make the characters sound like real people.

And besides all that, it's pretty lame...maybe the other two book will be better but I am so unimpressed with this and I really do not understand how so many people love it. Sorry if you think it's an amazing work of literature, but I can barely stomach it and I'm 240 pages in...

Boo to bad books...

Because I feel like complaining

I am really learning to hate the fleet.
In the two weeks that J has been a fleet Marine we've talked on the phone for about 40 minutes one night (friday...so he had the rest of the night off of course) and that is just about it. a few minutes here and there and a couple of texts.
I don't know if he's just so busy and tired that he can't take a minute to talk to me, or if he just doesn't feel like making a minute to talk to me. Which would be unlike him...but it seems like he doesn't want to talk when we're talking. And for him, it probably doesn't seem that way, because he's busy doing crap all day long, but I'm not. I notice. It doesn't feel good and I don't know how to talk to him about it...

I'm not the kind of girl that must have a goodnight phone call every night and I don't need a play-by-play every day. It's just not necessary for me to know his every move all the time. But I miss him. And when I have a crappy day (aka: every day...) I just want to hear his voice. I don't think he understands what it means to me to have him call me...but when he doesn't it's like it just makes my day that much worse. I just feel shrugged off for more important things...which I guess I should probably get used to...

The other thing that is frustrating, is my sister is now in a relationship (facebook official and everything) with the friend that J introduced her to and she talks about how they talk all day long and how he's so excited to skype her and blah blah blah and just makes it seem so much worse that I'm not talking to J...

I love him more than anything in the world, I just don't know how to deal with this without sounding like I'm selfish...What he's doing is important. I don't want to distract him from his work. It's important to him to make sure he knows what he's doing and that he holds his own against the infantry Marines in hikes and all that other stuff. I don't want to sound like I'm being a big baby and have him get all frustrated with me because he doesn't know how to make time for me. Or maybe he just doesn't want to make time.

I don't know. I'm done complaining...guess it doesn't matter...It's my blog and I can complain if I want...not like anyone reads this anyway.
