Wrenches

So I believe I've written about Ross deploying. Well, now he's gotten orders to go to Korea, as well. At the same time.

It made me laugh a bit, because it seems even the government can be super disorganized. Well, I guess that is a given for most people, because it seems that anyone I talk to isn't surprised when the words "government" and "disorganized" pop up in the same sentence. Can you imagine what a thorough cleaning out and organizational "treatment" would do to this country?

It seems, however, that his original deployment to Afghanistan will take precedence. Goodbye, dreams of traveling abroad. Oh well, it is his career, not mine. I just hope he comes back to me safe and sound.

Speaking of coming back, he proposed last weekend. . .with a Ring Pop! Cherry flavored, of course. I said yes. We are getting legally married on the 18th and plan to have the ceremony when he returns from deployment, probably around Thanksgiving of next year. What a lot of planning I get to do. It will definitely keep me busy.

Along with wedding planning, I am also trying to put myself out there more and apply for more jobs. I love working for the Hilltop Times, but I really need a full-time occupation to keep myself busy. I also need friends. Sounds depressing, but since I moved here I really haven't managed to meet anyone that I would call and hang out with, yet. Sure, I've met some great people, but I don't feel that close, yet. Got to work on that.

Well, back to working on le resume.
