Well, it's good that he's able to get out. In many countries I think military service is a fine thing and a natural expectation of the culture. But it's not like it is on the GO ARMY! commercials, either.

And I would come to Bmore in June!

Sorry. Yes, please come if you can. You can stay with me if you need to, although you'll probably stay at Andrew's parents', right?

well, andrew isnt sure if he will be going home to a wedding or not. but i want to book a plane ticket now... so i need to make sure i'd have someone to pick me up and take care of me for a few days if we didnt end up going to the wedding... so if you think you can do that, i'll book a flight this weekend.

I can most definitely be that person that picks you up and takes care of you for a few days. :) I'm so excited to see you again! (And Steve said that he's excited to meet you.)

Also, did you ever get the birthday email that I sent you? I sent it from work, so I worried that I typed in your address incorrectly. :( But it was full of love and good things and hope and cheer.
