only god knows why

Christmas day and I'm deployed, away again. It has never really bothered me, but I was thinking today that maybe it should. Ofcourse I miss my family and wish I was with them, but I always just push it off, rather than acknowledge that I'd rather be home. I haven't been home on Christmas day since senior year of highschool really.

I haven't really cried over the loss of my brother that much, but for some reason today only god knows why, by kid rock came on, and I was sitting in my room by myself and I just lost it for a little bit there. I remember when that song came out, when we were in high school, it brings back some memories of snowboarding with the crew, it was all over the radio, but I thought it was just ok, I even remember making fun of it after a month or two because it was constantly played. If you haven't heard it in a while I recommend giving it a listen.

I wanted to write this entry because I wanted to say thanks for the brothers I still have, I have been blessed with some truly amazing friends. I've been talking with Blake and Xavier a lot, I got to talk with John and Josh and it has been awesome. We have to stay in touch more often. I hope you guys are happy and safe. I love you all thanks for everything, my door is always open for you guys.

Only a couple weeks left here, I can't wait to get back home, spend time with my wife and see my dog, live in my house, get back to living. heh, thats kind of a funny statement, get back to living, why step away at all, why not live, even though im here? I guess I am, in my own way.

Mike
