**Just for a Rock Star**

After Jared got off work today he was in need of a "Rock Star", so we made our usually visit to the 24 hr shoppette right down the street from the house. I'll have you know we went straight in, it was packed as ever and well NO Rock Stars he turned around & walked right out before I could even realize what was going on. No, biggie he said we will go to the shoppette near the motor pool. After a walk in and a look around no Rock Stars there either (the flavor he wanted that is), I was thinking maybe he would go for a juice or something else seeings they didn't have one but nope I was wrong. Off we went to the gas station right down the street and well yeppers you guessed it, NO ROCK STAR. Ok now I'm getting alittle annoyed because it's just a drink but NO he is determined at this point that he is going to find one some were on post. We decided to go to the Schofield Inn because they always seem to be pretty well stocked with everything when ever we have stopped in there before so it was worth a shot. And well once again they didn't have one. "Really are you kidding me", I have never been to so many stores in a matter of 20 minutes and then all be out of the same drink. There was one last place to check, other than the Commissary which we didn't want to take that one on. The gas station at Foote Gate. As soon as we got near the light we could tell that it was packed like crazy so Jared pulled in and try ed to get through the line of cars but he was just to impatient at this point and said forget it. "Really are we going back home" I asked him. He replied NO!!!! "I'm going to go to the shoppette on Wheeler. "What really OMG, our quick trip to get a drink has now turned in to a 30 minute ordeal."
So over to Wheeler Army Air Field we go, and guess what THE SHOPPETTE WAS ALSO SOLD OUT OF ROCK STARS. At this point there wasn't really any more options unless we wanted to venture in to town and thankfully he settled for a different drink. WOW, why could you not of done that in the first place I asked him??? Nope, when he is stuck on something he is going to do what ever it takes to get it, even if that means going to the extreme to get something to drink.
Gosh, I love my Husband so much and he dose have his crazy moments but that's what makes him who he is.
