Catching up too....

Since everyone else is catching up, I might as well too.
Christopher is in Afghanistan, I don't exactly know where and he's not allowed to say on the phone, he isn't to his duty station yet, but he should hopefully be there tomorrow, and once he is there and settled in he will be able to call and talk to me on webcam more. I filed our taxes and we should be getting our return any day. I plan on paying some bills and I made an appointment to get my dog fixed, and they will microchip him for free. I also need to get him a little cone for his head, he likes to lick himself, and I don't want another Elvis incident, that was scary. So hopefully after that he will calm down some. I did get to talk to Christopher last night for about 10 minutes, I almost didn't answer cause he was calling my 760 number, he said he didn't know my other number by heart yet and he has been used to calling that number when he was gone before. I could barely hear him and there was a bad delay in the conversation, but it was good to hear his voice to I am not complaining. Tomorrow the cable company is comming to fix my cable box because it has been freezing. Then sunday I am going to a superbowl party, everyone will be rooting for the Stealers, I really don't care who wins, I like the comercials and the half time show. Im excited my Mom, Dad, and Sister got new phones, they can all text me now, even Catherine, who likes bacon by the way. I am excited for my family to come, it will be fun. As soon as I have Christopher's address I will make sure to give it to anyone who wants it so we can send him care packages and letters. He is doing good, he is just cold and tired of sleeping in a tent full of smelly dudes. Can't blame him for that. Lol

I miss him already!

Christopher left last night, or should I say this morning it was 3:30am. It sucks. You can only prepare for it so much and it doesn't really hit you until you wake up the next morning realizing that he isn't there. I am just hoping time will go by super fast or some miracle will happen where he will get sent home early. We had to be at his company last night at 11:50 and he didn't leave until 3:30. It was a lot of waiting around and it was actually cold outside. I was freezing. They had to do like 4 different formations and get their weapons issued and the rest was just waiting around. It was depressing when the busses pulled up and everyone was saying goodbye. God it sucked. It sucks waiting for him to call letting me know he got their safe. Soon I will get used to him being gone and my house won't feel so depressing and empty.

TUESDAY AT 3AM : (

So Christopher leaves Tuesday at 3am, yeah pretty much sucks! Hopefully this week will go by slow. He is getting all his stuff packed and together. There is ACU crap everywhere. I hope he stays safe and does not freeze to death. It will be all good, he's trying to take his R&R (2 week break) around my 21st birthday, which might not happen, but it would be the best birthday! As soon as he gets settled I will send him a lot of packages, I am sure my Mom will send a few as well.

Friends you will meet in Hawaii

I am really excited about my family coming to visit. We will have a lot of fun, and having their visit to look forward to makes it easier for me to get over Christopher deploying. I have something positive to look forward to instead of just negative. Well I just thought I would let my family see some of the friends they will meet while they are visiting.
You will see these damn geckos everywhere. They are always outside my door. They are gross and they sometimes are in my house. You will also see cockroaches just in the street as you're walking, they are huge and they fly. There are also really huge moths here, they look like bats, they creep me out.

We put in an AC unit in our living room so people won't get too hot. It works pretty well, I am happy with it. I finished the second Twilight book, which I was pretty happy about because it is probably the thickest book I have ever read. Now I am starting the third one. I am excited and the movie based on the second book comes out in November. I think after I read all the Twilight books I may get into the Harry Potter ones, but I don't know.

On Saturday Christopher is taking me on our last dinner outing before he deploys, he is taking me to the cheesecake factory, I wonder if they have pineapple cheesecake, that might be good.

New Years Eve in Paradise

New Years Eve was really fun, we spent it in Waikiki. Danielle's mom is visiting and she rented a hotel that overlooked the beach, it was really nice. We walked around in Waikiki and we ate dinner at Planet Hollywood, it sucked. I do not recommend it, they are slow and their food was not good at all. They had to comp some of our food because it was that bad. We did get free dessert and appetizers though. Driving home was really smokey because of all the fireworks,but everyone made it home safely. It was a fun new years eve.
: ) HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
