duty calls

i just finished my duty day for this month, pretty quiet, and i watched like 4 movies while on duty so pretty easy too. but i also wanted to put the word out officially, i sadly will not be coming home for thanksgiving or christmas. i know, im really upset too, but duty call when duty calls. and plus, ill have a pretty nice chunk of leave in the books when i leave here, so we can make up for loss time. and ive heard thru the family grape-vine that next christmas, not 100 percent sure about this, but next christmas, my family will be out in italy so we all will be together.... im kinda excited about that, especially  for bryan and andrew. they have flown.. a little bit, mainly stateside flights... i think, but for them to fly all the way to italy, for me.... i think itll be quite awesome.

this week of work has been usual. nothing too shabby. we had ert this week, so tuesday was a fun day, we ran hoses, and then searched a room filled completely with foam, it was like a european club night only no music or lights, then we did the tunnel crawl... long story short, its like climbing thru a 20 inch drain pipe for 300 feet. its fun, its hot, its a little claustrophobic, but still, fun none the less.

then, the rest of the week was slow, but same old stuff. next week should be fun b/c tuesday is veterans day, and we get that off.... tight.

well, im gonna go, i need some sustenance in my belly.

i love you guys...  miss you tons too.
