A bit about me!

 Home   Pictures   Journal

My name is Gary Steven Nault Jr. I was named after my dad. I live in southern California in a tiny town known as California City. I'm a complete computer nerd who plays sports. I love foot ball, golf, gaming, No Doubt, 311, playing my bass and anything that is fun or a good challenge! I like all music except for country, I am a huge Packer fan and a Simpsons expert! I go to arcades a lot and I own at all Mortal Kombat games, no one can consistently beat me. I'm good at Tekken 3/tag, DDR, MvC2 and only okay at CvS2. I'm a smart jock, yes, I know we don't exist... and a loud mouth ass hole at times, but I'm really funny, no really guys... My favorite food is steak and favorite movie is Predator. I want to hopefully one day play for the Green Bay Packers, or maybe make it big in a band because that'd be so bitchin' to be performing for tons of people. Failing that, I'd just do computer work. So here's my life, mainly the last three years, don't get too into it, you might actually be able to understand me now!

I was born November 19th, 1983 at Edwards Air Force base in southern California. I lived on base with my parents until my dad got out of the air Force. We then moved to Arizona until I was about four or so. We then moved back to these apartments by California City while our house was being built. I lived in California City, playing AYSO soccer, riding bikes out in the desert and doing normal kid stuff. I attended a private Christian school for a short while then moved. My dad was put on loan to work on the International Space Station in Huntsville, Alabama for almost a full year. I met really fun people there, it was really fun getting away from the uncivilized desert! I played my first year of football there.

So just when I think I'm going to move back to California City, yet again my dad gets put on loan to Lockheed working on the C-130 J projects. He test flew inside of planes in dangerous situations and tested their durability, weaknesses, strengths and stuff. So this job was in Marietta, Georgia. We went there and I made friends and started my first year of high school there. I joined the Air Force R.O.T.C. and had lots of fun flying sims and an actual C-130. I didn't land or take off though, (D'oh). Also I played two years of football there as receiver and defensive end. I did really well and it was fun. My dad traveled the world going to Spain, Argentina and tons of other places, he brought back some bitchin' stuff and stories. I met Randy, now a great friend of mine in the apartments we lived in. He had just moved there from near Chicago like two weeks after I moved in and oddly enough he moved back two weeks after we left. We did lots of stupid things and found another friend Marcus. We had tons of great times screwing with people and going to this pizza place that was all you can eat for two dollars and fifty cents, or something like that. So we got our share of pizza, hehe. We had a computer room with three computers in it so we were always in there on the chat lines, or playing games, this is where I fell in love with computers, plus The Matrix had just came out! I didn't know too much about computers but wanted to know!

In July, 1999 we moved back to California City in the same house on Great Circle. It was so great to see all of my friends again and tell them my stories and hearing theirs. The lady across the street from us had moved out and a month or two after we had gotten back the Chebahtahs had moved in. I became good friends with Justin Chebahtah and his younger brother Jake. Justin and I went to high school together and he began to teach me things about computers because he was already a computer nerd and I was aspiring to be one. In my math class was this little blonde guy I use to call little dude, his name is Pat, he became one of my best friends real quick. I'd see him around a lot and found out he lived right next to me and rode my bus and everything so we started to hang out tons and tons. I played football again my sophomore year but grades ultimately would keep me from playing the last half of the season, bummer! So my grades starting sucking, I really hated Mojave High School, the teachers just baby sat, didn't help or anything. I passed gym! So in order to catch up I did this home study thing during the summer and I was doing really well. My teacher said I'm really smart, just lazy, which we all know, hehe, and that I should just take the California Proficiency Examination so I got out of school for a few months and waited for the test date. During that time I spent all of my days and hours on the computer learning tons of things, playing games and kicking ass as usual. I ran into my old buddy, Chris Hylla, who I've know since kindergarten. I hadn't seen him since I'd been back and I had been back for like a year and a half. So we hung out a lot and started doing this back yard wrestling stuff with Pat, our buddy Danny who we've always hung out with, Justin, the neighbor Darius which we played basketball and football a lot together. A bunch of other people started to hear about it so soon we were passing out waivers and teaching the newbs how to wrestle. We called it the GDW, which stood for Ghetto Desert Wrestling. It was really fun for a long time and eventually we all just kind of quit. 

A little later on I remembered that California City had gotten a new radio station. I was really excited to hear it was owned by Kathryn Efford, the lady who owned the Christian school I went to briefly. So my family and I knew her real well. I asked her if I could maybe be a DJ and go on the air and stuff and she said sure, but I'd have to write, produce my show and everything! So I talked to Chris because we've known each other for so long, we know all the same jokes and can read each other real well. So we hung out for about two weeks, came up with a two hour comedy show, we decided to just simply call it, The Chris and Gary show. We played 80's music since no one at the station had played 80's. Kathryn loved it and we came up with funny characters and different little plots, schemes & skits. It also so happened that Kathryn needed some one to do the website for the station because the guy who had done it before moved. So knowing html and a few web design programs I made their web site.

Well in the middle of all this happening I met this girl named Sarah. We We talked a lot and started to like each other and started dating. We're currently very serious and very much in love, yay, go us =P. Well my dad wanted to buy a new house on the other side of the city, it was really nice, bigger and had a pool, hot tub, tanning bed and tons of other nicer features than our current house. I let my friend live with me for a while because his mom was a psycho bitch so it was fun, he was a bit weird because he was sheltered but it worked out. My uncle Donny decided to move here from Colorado Springs so my dad bought the house and rented out the old house on Great Circle to him. The test date finally came around for the California High School Proficiency Exam. My friend who was living with me, Shane, and I took it. He didn't pass which was funny because he studied his butt off and I didn't study at all and I passed. I got the results back saying I was in the top ten percent of people in California who took it that test date, which there is only two test dates a year! Shortly after we moved into the new house across town and my friend Shane moved up state with a relative, so he had gotten out of California City and away from his mom. Now a days I mostly just sit around playing with the computer, golfing with my dad in the mornings. I can't find any work out here in California City other than McDonald's and Rite Aid which every one was always applying for anyways, and I have no pre-experience. In October of 2002 we got a new manager at the station and he wanted to change the format to strictly oldies. So we of course did, Chris and I aren't DJ'ing any more. I redid the website though because they still needed a web designer and some one to help maintain the computers.

In the summer of 2003 I decided to join the Air Force because I couldn't find work plus college costs money. In December I left for basic training in San Antonio, Texas for 7 weeks then went to technical training school, where I learn my job for 3 months in Bilouxi Mississippi. Basic Training sucked but tech school was really fun, being on the beach, meeting new people and learning my job as a 3C0x1 which is the Air Force Specialty Code for Communications Computer System Operator. Basically I'm a network administrator, PC tech and program a bit. After I was done with that I went home for 2 short weeks to visit my family, Sarah and friends. I got assigned to Tinker AFB for my first assignment which is in Oklahoma City. So I went from California City to Oklahoma city... apparently it's a going trend with me? I've been here for a few short months, it's really nice, bit boring but really nice. I'm in a Combat Communication squadron, so I get deployed to set up brand new networks and build them from the ground up where there is no communications, i.e. a new base in the middle of the desert or where ever. Usually I would just work at a computer support or network center on base working on the all ready established base network. So I get a lot more education this away having to actually build and practice and troubleshoot a lot more. Currently I'm just waiting for Sarah to hopefully move out with me so we can continue our relationship, watching new movies on the weekends, going out with friends and playing games on the net. So nothing new! Just in a new place, hehe.
