As I'm getting settled on my ship in my new life with the navy in San Diego, I have a lot to share for those who actually read this.
Tomorrow, I am signing the lease to D and I's first house. I am so excited. We get to move in on the first of October, shortly before I go underway. D doesn't think he'll like CA because of all the laws and restrictions, but I'm gonna try to change his mind. While I couldn't live here permanently, I do want to make the most of the next 3 and a half years.
Work is going really well. I got my first experience with painting yesterday, me and a shipmate painted half of half of the side of the ship. (Does that make sense? lol) It was fun, we were out there all day, but it went by fast so it didn't feel like forever. I'm taking my BM3 (advancement) test this week, on Thursday the 20th. I'm also going to get 3M and basic DC qualified hopefully by the end of the week. (sorry for using "Navy" terminology, I'm so used to it now...if you want to know what any of that means just ask!)
D and I are finally starting to plan our "formal" wedding. We're thinking August, 2013. The date and other specific details will come later, once we are able to finalize things. It's really exciting, even though we're already legally married, to go through and plan it...I can't wait to wear that white dress in front of my loved ones and get walked down the aisle by the best dad in the world.
There is a certain person in my life who I really, really miss. I guess I should say they're not in my life, because if they were I wouldn't need to miss them. Anyway, we don't talk anymore, and at first I was okay because I figured we were just at different places and really really busy...but now, I feel super lonely. It's pretty bad when you can count on one hand how many friends you have, right? Not true, best friends, but total friends. Yeah...I miss this person. It just ... hurts. I want to let them know that I miss them, but then again, I don't wanna be the one to make the first move because I already kind of did that with no response/result. Sucks. :(
That's it for now I guess, nothing else to report.
