One day down, 107 to go....

Well Mark flew out this morning to Lackland, Texas for boot camp. He'll be in boot camp until July 17th, then, after a 12-day lag period, he'll be in basic training until September 4th. I'm definitely sad but it's not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. This is just so much better than the last time he was gone that the comparison is making it a lot easier. At least this time I have specific dates, I know when he'll be back. It's crazy just how much of a difference that can make. I've just pretty much accepted the fact that the next few days are going to be hard, but I'll be fine. The hardest part is that I keep pulling out my cell phone to text him and then realize that he'll definitely not be able to respond. I didn't realize how much I texted that boy until I couldn't anymore, ha ha. I'm certainly looking forward to his graduation from boot camp so I can at least keep in contact with him more immediately than sending letters.

I just can't help but feel bad for the poor guy, boot camp in Texas all summer? That's gonna be pretty miserable...oh well, he'll be all buff and sexy when he gets back so it's a pretty fair trade ;)

So I'm going to try and keep myself pretty busy this summer so that it goes by quickly. I'm taking two summer classes, which is a double whammy because that will allow me to apply for my associate's in September and then get started on my major. Bonus! I'm also considering trying out for Beauty and the Beast at the Terrace Playhouse, which would basically go against everything I stand for, but desperate times call for desperate measures! Other than that I just plan on a lot of quality family and friend time. All of that combined should make the summer fly by! That's what I'm hoping for, at least, ha ha.

Well that's about it for now in mah life. Work is pretty same ol', same ol'. We're starting the inventory process...blecht...there is nothing more monotonous and wearing than inventory. Hopefully I'm partnered up with someone fun to make it more interesting.

Anywho, that's about all the ramblings I have left for this evening.

Until next time, blogger world!
