Redeeming Myself
Oct. 9th, 2005 10:09 amWow. That's about all I can say right now.
Amy put it best last night.
"I think this is the start of something really wonderful."
Granted, we'd both had the inklings before the physical part kicked in- this just makes it that much more meaningful. I'm really glad we waited, and I see this lasting for a long time. We've talked a lot about the long absences my job requires (read: my deployment in January), and while she's not looking forward to it, she's bound and determined to wait for me. That makes me feel really good, and gets rid of one of my biggest fears about where our relationship could be going. It already feels good knowing there's somebody waiting for me, somebody who will be missing me while I'm gone.
On another note, I've spent the last month or so negotiating with the detailer for orders as to where I'm going next. I want to stay here in San Diego- like my friend![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
bananacranapple, the city's grown on me, and I've fallen in love with it, especially the beaches. My parents aren't that happy that I don't want to come home yet, but they'll deal. For a while, it looked like I'd have to stay with the ship until I get out to stay here, but I got an 11th hour email Friday afternoon asking me if I'd be interested in taking a recruiting job right here in San Diego.
Hell fucking yeah.
So life is good right now. :)
