OK So just to get it out there, TODAY, being Tuesday, June 9th, Tony left to go spend the night at "Porter's" house (a.k.a. Chuck Norris...whatever...) and they are going to get shawasted, then tomorrow night must report in Grayling with all of their stuff, and there they must stay....Thursday night Rebecca, Grace, Bayani and I will be driving up there, Friday afternoon is the big BBQ cook out ( I have been informed to bring a desert...tomorrow (wed) I will be making a double batch of cookies ) and that night will be Tony's last night...well, to spend with me...THEN SATURDAY...a ceremony, tears, then they leave for Flint to jump on a plane and go to Wisconsin....WOO! WISCONSIN!!! Not really...there they will spend 25 days, making sure all paperwork is done and dealt with. If they do not do/get done whatever they are supposed to do within those 25 days, they stay until they get it done. But if they get it done, and I'm sure they will, they will then fly to some town I currently can't think of the name, then they will drive the rest of the way to Baghdad...Baghdad is a "no-fly-zone" apparently...whatever....there he will spend (word-for-word from his orders:) "no less than 400 days" in Baghdad.
OH, and he didn't tell me this until last month, because he couldn't, but he has been selected from his 250 +/- to be part of a 16 man group that will be doing special missions that do not involve the rest of the platoon. I don't know what else he will be doing in said group, just that it's more dangerous. It's nice, he loves to make me worry.
So yeah. There's my current life. I feel like eating chocolate until I die. I'm kinda stressed out.
