So Sam has been gone for..umm..a month and a half now, I think. Man, I totally hate the military. He's gotten to come back every week and half. He'll be back for Christmas this Saturday. We'll get 2 whole weeks together and that'll pretty much be the last time we'll really spend time together until he's officially back next December. Bummer. :-/ Thank God for the wonder of webcams, I guess. Got him a new laptop. It should be arriving on Tuesday. It's a pretty Macbook. That way he'll be able to (hopefully) chat online. The hours will be all screwy. I think there's about an 8 hour time difference. Maybe 9. I forgot. It might work out though because come March, I'll have a crazy schedule too thanks to the miracle of childbirth.
Staying with his parents hasn't been all that bad. His brother has a good sense of humor so he's easy to joke around with. I still get a little awed when I see the parents display affection towards one another.
The apartment should be ready soon so I'll be setting up shop there, getting everything ready for me and the baby. I'll be heading back to good ole CA in January shortly after the new year. Mom said she was going to throw a baby shower. I'm excited to see my family. :) It's been a while. Since October. Since Sam and I found out he was getting deployed.
My biggest obstacle right now is making time go by faster. Not having a job sucks. Not having to go to school sucks too. With school time flew by. I'll problably take up some kind of old lady hobby, like knitting. I'll knit scarfs for Sam even though I know it'll be of no use to him during the summer.
