My mommy did teach me a lot about respondsibility. I think im going to write a letter up the chain of command and ask about maybe getting my NJP expunged from my record for good behavior. I really want to do good and make a carreer for myself. I may follow the Lee idea and go for officer. I really think that its just brilliant, and I am truely inspired by the leadership that I've seen at this command. They make an outstanding effort to look after their sailors.
Theres my responsible side coming out.
I dont really have much else to talk about today... at least not right now.
I had a really easy day today. Just some GMT's this morning. Which werent so bad, I was in good company. I sat with Erin and Dan. I talked to Dan and he was telling us how much he misses us. I was telling him we should remmedy that and guess whos coming over to fix dinner some time next week?
And guess what two super cool kids are probably gonna get into some Tequilia? Yeah. thats right, The Matt and the Dan. I sure miss my husband a whole lot. The more hes gone the more I realize how much I want him in my life... Its strange, cause i realize i could surivive without him. I could live my life and do my job and make friends and go through all the motions of being a person without him... but I dont WANT to. I WANT him in my life, and I want to be with him. Its a strange thing to discover. I always thought I needed him, and I suppose in a way I do... I need him to secure my happiness and my well being. He really grounds me. Id be something else without him... perhaps something I dont think id like very much.
He comes home this week. About damn time.
I made a decision about my next duty. I am asking for sea duty. Im not sure how long it will be for. Its my first term. I can get all kinds of ship quals. Itll look good. Specially if i wanna go for an officers program someday. And ill know if I like EVERYTHING that goes along with being in the Navy... Including ship duty. But I found out some interesting stuff about CT's. We dont have a ship/shore rotation necessarily... we have a CONUS/OVERSEA rotation. Hawaii is not continental, therefore is oversea. Its a 2/1 run. I guess time will tell me exactly what that means.
Im feeling really carreer driven lately. Its really all i can think about this week. Its kinda nice.
I just got done watching The People Under the Staris with sari... yeah.
I have running around to be doing.
