This post is in response to Sharon's boss Ian, who I am told is a very lovely man, whom I must thank for giving my Sharon a wonderful opportunity to find her talent in the work force. What Sharon has told me about Ian is that he's an outstanding employer who is caring and thoughtful to all of his employees. Then, not to mention, her friend Lisa whom I must say I must thank for giving my Sharon some really good ideas to bring over here with her. (Lisa you know what I mean!) And by the way, Lisa I WILL take very good care of her, as I have to. There's no other choice. She's my universe, my lover, my friend, my most wise counsel. For me to neglect in taking care of her would be like cutting out my right eye and my trigger finger. For a soldier, that's just something you don't do!
A wonderful work environment, now, that is something you don't hear much about these days, and I thank the Almighty for placing these two beautiful people in her path. But, in sheer desperation to keep her in England working for him, I have received the following message from Ian on this very blog. Here it is reproduced for your reading pleasure...
The Boss Here
This is just a joke Sharon and Lisa are only allowing me to be the boss for ten minutes - so I will have to be quick. Tell you more when Sharon goes to Starbucks god help us with the orgasms she'll have thinking about you. I am plotting ways to keep her here and the one that has the most votes is a letter to the US embassy saying that she is a member of a terrorist organisation plotting to blow up a house, but we cannot say the colour because in the UK we have to be politically correct.
Ian
Sharon's Boss and Friend
Nice touch Ian and very funny too! Who says I don't "get" English humor! I really understand how you feel because Sharon is truly wonderful isn't she? But, I have to explain why I can't cave in and let you and Lisa have your way.
The last 4 months and a couple of weeks, I've been busting my butt to prepare my home for Sharon's arrival. Even after spending a month in the most miserable place on earth, the National Training Center in Death Valley California, I continued my cleaning and repairing of my house, which I was awarded along with my children, in a settlement against my ex-wife. My ex-wife, realizing that everything was going to go my way, tried to turn the place into a wreck so I would drop the issue, but I didn't. It was a matter of principal and the well being of my children was at stake so, there you go.
Just in case you all want to know what this miserable training area looks like, well here it is above. NTC is hell on earth. Literally.
I would rather spend a year in Iraq, than a month in this place. It's hotter, dustier, and for some ungodly reason seems to be a place where on every rotation of units, someone ends up either dead or seriously injured. NTC is a realistic simulation of how we conduct our wartime mission. Now, while I may groan and moan about this place, I am thankful for it, as I and my cohorts receive top notch training, so that we can bring the pain upon our enemies around the world. Oh, and for those liberals out there, the "surge" of forces in Iraq IS working, which again is a testament to the training that we receive in "Hell on Earth".
Anyway, just so my Sharon knows, the "nest" that I'm preparing for her will be very comfortable and warm. As I've mentioned to her, the greatest gift other than love for her that I can give her is time. We wouldn't want her to come over here and feel that she has to put her cleaning hat on, and get busy. So, I have gone straight up domestic and here's a before and after picture to prove it.
Before....
This is only the living room, the entire house was in a state of total disarray, but I am never one to give up on anything, so Martha Stuart, I'm going to give you a run for the money!
I am almost complete with the overhaul, and by the time Sharon arrives, I will be done both inside of the house and on the outside. Just thought I'd share that with you, in case you were wondering.
