This weekend my old boyfriend, J.r, and his wife Heidi stayed at the Hale Koa (military hotel in Waikiki) and I got to spend time with them on Saturday. J.r's dad retired from the Air Force a few years ago. Tash and I went out with J.r and Heidi for pizza on Saturday night and talked about old times, like how J.r. used to eat 10 tacos in one sitting when I knew him during college. He is one of those lucky (and very smart) people who knew what kind of career he wanted to pursue and stuck with it throughout college and beyond.
Howie and I are fine so far. Not sure what is going to happen in the future, but I am living moment by moment. Sometimes I am tempted to come back to VA out of fear that Mom will pass away before I get to spend any more time with her. She's still healthy for now, but ovarian cancer doesn't have a really good long term survival rate =( I am also concerned about Mom and Dad living so close to Washington DC especially as the Presidential election nears. I fear the terrorists might try to do something terrible. But fear is what the terrorists want so I'm trying to overcome these feelings.
