Had an extend convo with Airborne this morning. I warned him never to call that late again or I would be calling at an unexpected time (ie very early in the morning) to retaliate. He said that he turns his phone off at night. I asked "What if I get all hot and bothered and want to talk to you?" His reply: "Try Penecillian."
His arm is in a cast. A trainee got "a little enthusiastic" and slammed him down causing two hairline fractures above his wrist. Unfortunately, they didn't have a hot pink cast available, so he has a royal blue one. He was whining (yes, whining) about how it sucks to shower with a cast on. I told him he should be thankful he doesn't have to style his hair with a blowdryer, brush, hairspray and flat iron.
He said that the trainee wouldn't let go and he used a "groin release" (which in civilian-speak means he grabbed the guy's nuts).
His apartment is well-furnished and he's been introduced to the neighborhood welcome wagon (I mean posse) which have all probably had starring roles on "Cops".
He's thinking of getting a black leather couch, but I told him that a large recliner would probably be more useful for him. Yet he says that when he has 'company' they can canoodle (my word) on the couch. I told him that if she has the option of sitting on the chair with him or the bed, his options of seeing some action probably improved. That is, if she'll step foot in his apartment. (It's got quite a colorful group of people that he's endeared himself to already.)
His son, the boy, got in big trouble for possession of Reeses Pieces. I know, it sounds stupid, but apparently having food in the barracks is a big no-no. He offered his superior some (which I thought was very thoughtful) and in exchange, he was written up on a bunch of charges.
I'm thinking of sending "the boy" some Reeses Pieces for his birthday or some holiday. I figure he'll appreciate it.
Then again, Airborne wants me to go visit him. Considering the luxurious bachelor pad he has, and the exciting nightlife it offers, I think I'm going to stay right here.
