As it gets closer, it feels weird

As the days count down, I don't know what I'm feeling. I had a lot of bad feelings from before the time started counting down. I think back to basic when all we did was count down the days. From the start it seemed to drag on. Only 10 weeks at basic training and it seemed to take forever to get through red phase. And then counting down from white and blue phase. And I know it was the letters that got me through it. Seemed to be volumes of correspondence back then compared to what I had the last few months.

One of my thoughts recently has been centered around the thought I wouldn't be deploying for several more months than I expected to. I know that contributed to ending things since I expected to pretty much go to Hood and then go down range for a year. I don't think it would have survived that since it was all pretty thin. I'd just like to know that she's better off without me than with me.

16 days and a wake up before I final out. 18 and a wake up before I fly. Plans slowly coming together.

Kevin, probably going to do something like Applebees on the Blvd like before I left for basic. Looking at probably the 19th right now.
