Today is the dreaded day. The day my love depolys. Although we said a very...very very hard see you later 11 days ago at the Honolulu International Airport.. today's was awful hard as well. The only good thing was there were no tears (yet). For the next 6 months we will be 6159 miles apart with a 16 hour difference. Although I may not feel like I'm ready, I know I am and I'm excited for the opportunity to experience a deployment together. I'm excited for the 3am Skype calls, the emails, the letters and the care packages. So although I don't drink, let's all tip our glasses back for a quick and safe deployment. I love you so much dear, have fun and take lots of pictures for me.
