In true Marine girlfriend form, I have over-committed myself in hopes of staying sufficiently distracted ...and my blogging has suffered. So sorry!

I have, however, been inspired by my (former... :( ) blogging teacher. Therefore, I will try to write everyday for...well a while/as long as I can/until I forget.

New York was great fun with my dearest Kate! I forgot my camera, but she took some pictures, so I will hopefully have some up soon.

Here is a great site for marine garb for all you USMC fans out there. Personally, I like the print magazine better...it is like cuddling up to a great book that has no plot, climax, characters or any other aspect of a book except a few words and pictures.

My boyfriend's mother ordered a silver plated bracelet with an engraved saying on it from the Srgt. Grit site (a.k.a. grunt.com). It is beautiful! I will try to get a picture up if anyone is interested in seeing it before they buy.

In other, more obvious news...The pirates 'nough said.

I am preoccupied with those stories as of late because my dearest is "fightin the pirates." Hopefully, we will all be able to learn more about the military's counter piracy efforts...Check this out!


How about that?! My marine is on the Boxer. You can be sure that I would watch the Man network Spike TV for that...as well as CSI re-runs.

Anyone have any interesting articles?

HAVE A GREAT DAY

HAPPY MARATHON MONDAY!

P.S. This whole deployment "thing" would be waaaay easier if I was as easily amused by simpler things in life...like ballies...
