Combat Boots

I just found my old Air Force combat boots from Saudi and tried them on for the first time in 15 years.
I wish I could wear them every single day.

Never having been issued the desert tans, I was always envious of those beauties!

They really are very beautiful. And oh-so comfortable.

I remember your ankles always looked really skinny in those desert tans compared to the regular issue. Why is that….skinny ankled freak!

Thank you.

you've been out for 15 years? Wow...for some reason, the 90's don't seem that long ago. It's hard for me to comprehend that I'm 21 and all that has happened in my lifetime. I mean, there hasn't been that much, yet an eternity. And I've yet to make a difference.

I should consider using my Live Journal. Maybe I will play around with the layout and see...I would consider cross-posting. But I like the community and the look and feel of my Xanga.

What the hell is up with Dan? What is he getting out of that damned blog?

I should go work on my book. Or read a book. Or watch a movie. Or go to sleep.

I hate this state of existance.

I left Saudi in January 95, so it's been closer to 12 years.

For god's sake pull your self together man! The only benefit time will give you is perspective, not meaning. Don't worry so much about making a difference; just keep doing the next right thing.

Why don't you wear them to convocation? You'll need comfortable shoes...or boots!!!!!

Alas, if only I could. I'd have to blouse my khaki slacks, and that would just look...odd.
