Good morning. I have the day off today. I slept in just made myself some coffee, (which by the way I will share with you when we live together. I have a french press and it's so yummy.) , ate eggs and papaya for breakfast...,yep life is pretty good.

I am planning on buying a bike today. I have been wanting to do it for a very long time. Well, I decided today is the day. Soon I will be tooling around town using my own enery to get me places. That's a little closer to home than getting my energy from Iraq right?

I still haven't gotten my phone fixed. I can't get ahold of the guy who sold it to me.

Hey! I had another idea. Want to buy a tandem bike and bike from coast to coast. Wouldn't that be sweet? Ha! Just that part of me that wants to do something out of the ordinary talking again.

Well, I am going to go live my day now.

You only have 2 more months and you will be back home again! Yeah! Hang in there.

Little Story.

I lost my cell phone. I didn't want to buy a new one from sprint because that would mean signing up for anther two year contract. I bought one off of ebay and now that I have it they can't activate it because it is still active on anther account. Shoooot! Man, I really wanted to be able to call and talk to you. The number they gave us to call if there were any problems is disconnected.:( So, I am still without a cell phone.

I would like to hear about the home you found for us. I am just getting really antsy. I could move tomorrow.

I am feeling so damn alone. There are a few circumstances that agitate that feeling. First of all I am living with an engaged couple. They are wonderful and I'm not really jealous it's just that they are beginning to build a life together right here in this house with me camped out in the middle of it! Second of all I haven't been hanging out with people because I don't have a cell phone to get a hold of anyone. My time off is spent alone- shopping, facebook, playing guitar, running- it's just so much Natalie space. When I need to share my heart what do I do? Well I pick up my journal and pour it out to a piece of paper. Enough all ready. That's not the way it's supposed to be right? (just for the record it has been personally proved that paper really does not talk back. EVER.) I know I will look back on these days and long for my independence. That's not really helping right now though. At least I have blogger and you to write!:)

I read that you are back in Cali! You were so close! Oh well. I hope you enjoyed your trip. How do you feel now that you are back?

Love from MI.
