Hi, My name is Kaylan and my husband is a Sgt.

I don't understand girls. Any girl, any age, any race, background, religion, height, hair color, if you are a girl I don't understand you. Saying this, in turn, means I don't understand myself. Some times I don't. I'll wonder why I did or said something, especially if it was completely ridiculous or out of character. All girls are two-faced. You can be ignorant all you want and say you're not, but you are.

I don't understand how girls can talk about someone behind their back, but still hang out with them. I'm sure I'm guilty of doing this, which proves that I don't understand myself, but I'm pretty sure I left that part of me in high school since I haven't had any friends that I hang out with in a while.
That's too much trouble trying to remember who you don't like and what you've said about someone to another person. You do realize that anything you say about someone will eventually get around to that person? If you  don't like someone, don't hang out with them! It makes things less difficult when they want to hang out with you and you have to make up lies as to why you can't hang out.

Also, girls are extremely catty. Especially military wives. Get off your high horse, you don't wear your husbands rank, you don't have his MOS, you didn't go through 13 weeks of hell (unless you used to or are in then ignore that statement.) I haven't met any of the wives of Marines my husband works with, but so far I like them a lot better than some of the girls I have met. I could careless if your husband is an Officer, you're not, and especially if he is a Lt. Shoving your hubs Lt. rank down my throat is kind of asking to get kicked in the face. I don't care if your husband is Ordinance or works on the flight line, I honestly don't care if he is an instructor or DI, I don't care if he's a pilot, I really don't care if he is a grunt. Maybe some of the wives have forgotten, they work together, they do the same job. Without my husband, your husband couldn't do his job, and without someone else's husband, my husband couldn't do his job.
It's a give and take relationship that THEY deal with. If your man doesn't like the "IT" guys don't take it out on me because mine works with computers. If your guy or you thinks he's better than everyone else because he's a grunt, too bad he's not. His job is just as important as anyone's.

Notice that I said "HE" and "HIS," not "YOU" and "YOURS." You're not a Marine stop acting like one. It's perfectly fine to be proud of your husband, I'm extremely proud of mine, but don't gloat about it to people who you're trying to be friends with.

It's extremely difficult to find a wife who doesn't wear her husbands rank and that's just pitiful. Don't introduce yourself like the title of this blog. That's a sure way to end up with no friends. That's why everyone should take LINKS or an equivalent class. You're a civilian not a Marine.

I know the shame in your defeat

How fun was today? Huh?!
Stupid people starting fights on Facebook for no reason, gotta love 'em.

I'm sure people think it's my fault and that I shouldn't have posted such a status, but like I said to them, it's my Facebook and I'll post what I damn well please. I encourage you to do the same.

I could honestly careless if you watched the entire Casey Anthony trial or watched none of it. The thing you have to remember is one word, "perspective." I learned the significance of this word at the last daycare I worked at, thank you Frank for opening my eyes. It doesn't matter what the truth is, it matters what people see. His example, if you're playing with the children and for some reason you turn your back on one child and that child's parent, or anyone for that matter, happens to see your back turned to that child they're going to see it as you don't care and you're not watching that child, even if you had just turned around for literally 2 seconds.

It's what the other person sees, that's what they're going to believe, no matter what you say.

I don't know if any of you who commented on my status watched the trial, again I could careless, but when you wait till today to post a status about how awful it is she got off and her daughter is dead it makes you look like you're only doing it for the attention.

I'll be honest, I didn't watch the trial. I don't like watching or seeing things that will make me upset, and the death/murder of a child and the ignorance of some people would make me upset. Do I think Casey Anthony is guilty of murder? I have no idea and I'm not going to sit here and say she is because 20 people on Facebook say she is. I'm not going to judge someone when I have no information or proof that she did it. Do I think something is wrong with Casey? Yes, granted there's something wrong with everyone.

Do I have a heart of stone for not posting about how awful it is that Caylee died? No, I think it's terrible and I hope they find whoever did kill her, her family deserves to know. No child deserves that. And because I have faith in God, I know that not only is Caylee safe and happy, I know God will judge the person who did kill her even if we don't. And anyways it's not our place to hate someone. "Anyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life in him."

So that's basically all I have to say about the trial, now let's move on to the people.

I'm glad people felt so moved to comment on my status, but let me just say this and I don't mean this in a mean way, well in the less meanest way possible, the world does not revolve around you. Because I post something and maybe it has to do with something you said or have done doesn't mean I'm talking about you. If I want to say something to you, I'll most likely blog about it. I might come to you about it, but we all know I like blogging, so read my blog if you want to know if I have a problem with you. Let me also say this,  this is the computer. A computer is a machine. Machines are incapable of producing emotion and words, now-a-days, are often flat.
I most likely will not put time and effort into using adjectives to explain how I'm feeling, especially in the heat of the moment. If I have had time to think it over and sort of calm down that is when you, my fine people, are in trouble. I will tear you to pieces, after all the pen, or in this case-keyboard, is mightier than the sword. Is that mean? Probably,(warning I'm about to get ghetto) but when you come on "my turf" and disrespect me, I have a big problem with that and you wont do it again, trust me. </ghetto>

Also, when you're supposed to be my friend, do not talk down to me and say I need to get a life. Get off Facebook if you're so concerned about people having lives. Obviously you don't. And how dare you even say that, I'd like to see what you would be doing if you were in a new state hundreds of miles away from your family alone, while your husband is on the other side of the country, dumb bitch.

If you know me well, you know I rarely cuss, I usually only do it when I'm mad or well, since I've been married to someone who drops the F bomb like it's nothing. I have no problem with people who cuss, some times I find it funny or cute. Yes weird I know, but it's true. So please don't censor yourself around me, I'll feel offended that you can't be your true self around me.

Like I said before, I'm glad people felt moved to comment on something I said, I feel one cannot grow and learn without others. I would love to talk to any and all of you who have something to say, please message me or email me if you want to tell me your thoughts and opinions. Now I cannot push this enough, but I refuse to have any type of civil conversation with you if you plan on being immature, ignorant or just down right rude.

This is the most random blog I think I've posted.

Lets keep that style going.

This Christmas I'm wanting to go to a children's hospital and donate gifts, if you'd like to help Lani and myself set this up please let me  know, I've never done this and any suggestions are welcome!

Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down.

"Aw man, another post about friends?! You've got to be kidding!"

Nope, I'm not. This one is different though, well sort of. I'm not going to rant about how crappy my, "friends" are. I'm not too sure what this is going to be about, but we'll see.

My best friend, I love her to death, text me last night and told me she was going to the doctor today. Obviously I was extremely worried I told her to text me as soon as she got out. This afternoon when I got up, yes afternoon, I got a text from her letting me know the initial tests were fine. I was so relieved.

She posted on Facebook that she had an EKG and blood work done. Now when I see "EKG" and "blood work" I want to know what the heck is going on and if that person is okay. You don't just go to the doctor for a check up and leave with an EKG done and blood drawn.

Out of all 219 friends of hers on Facebook, I was the only one that commented on it. Her boyfriend was worried too and was texting her, but seriously two people out of all of your "close" friends actually care about your health?
That's messed up.

Now, as you all know, I suck at making friends. I'm extremely awkward and shy and social situations usually make me uncomfortable. Luckily the three girls I have met are really sweet and make the awkwardness subside a little bit, which I'm thankful for! (Thanks Lani, Renee and Kassy!! <3)

With that said, I feel like there are so many fake people in the Corps and in general. I'm one of those people that when I'm your friend, I'm in it till the end. There's no, "Oh well I'm friends with this person, so I can't be friends with you." Or "We're besties, but I'm going to talk about you behind your back."
If you're one of those, you basically just shot yourself in the foot because I will never be your friend, no matter what you say.

I expect my friends to be there for me when I need them, and I'll be there for you. You're having a bad day? I'll be over in two seconds, your husband deployed, I'll go get the ice cream. I expect you to do the same.

I don't need "fair weather" friends, I need best friends. I'm not one of those people that can only have one best friend, if I could have  like four or five BEST friends where I can tell you anything and trust 100% that you're not going to judge me or go tell everyone else, I'd be set.

So if you can't live up to my expectations, then let me know so I can move on to someone who actually respects my opinion and me.


This is what I want.^^^^
