10 days of leave
i am back.
well, temporarily at least, for about 10 days. then im going to go back to the foxholes and land nav and hand grenades and pistols and m16a4s.....::big smile::
having fun though here at home, even though its incredibly mind blowing and slightly difficult adjusting to things. sometimes feels like ive been frozen for the past few months... "theres a new coke out?" "wait that movie is on dvd already?" etc... current events are no longer my fortay unfortunately. grr
man did i miss many things. ontop of that list would be my girl of course, its so awesome to be with her again, even if i am overly occupied and busy alllll the time because everyone wants to squeeze in time with chris before he has to go back to MCT. poor girl isnt used to not recieving my 100% attention, whats worse is that it can make me feel guilty... which isnt so great. heh.
anyways. to sum it up in one sentece: i have found my life dream, my calling, my destiny...whatever you wanna call it. the marines is for me and now i am one, proudly.
it is EVERYTHING... as i so delicately struggled to explain in a tounge tied yet brief conversation with Ashley Broder who stopped by to my welcome home get together thingy, which was very unexpected yet mature and respectful amongst other honorable things.
speaking of which i thank everyone who came and cheered and set it up and cleaned it up and just generally welcomed me home...was really nice and meant alot to me. as you probably noticed i was jazzed and spun all whilst bearly awake because i was so exhausted... hehe. good times
so yea... if i died right now.. id be a happy man. heaven cant offer me what i have in my life right now.
i am happy
so.. if ya wanna catch me .. call me.. ill be around for a few more days and im cramming anything thats fun into my daily schedules, so make sure u got ideas :)
ill see ya around
