Hey you guu-uuys!!!!
This is, verbatim, a comment I got from my Dad today.
Have I mentioned lately how much I love y'all?Read on: Finally heard from your brother after two and a half weeks of
phone and puter silence.
He wrote us yesterday, and called us last evening.
He's been quite busy (if he tells us 'doing what'
I guess he'd have to shoot us...) He says he'll
be less busy for a little while.. Please tell your
wonderful correspondents that he has gotten a ton of notes from them
wishing him and his fellow Marines well. He says he'll have a heck of a
time replying to all of them (well...maybe the large busted young
ladies with somewhat questionable moral standards have an edge...) because
the Marines seem to think they have dibs on his time. But the
correspondence is much appreciated! Thank all of them so much... Thank you, every single one of you.
Feel free to write Norm as much as ya want.
No such thing as "too much" support (unless, of course, it's child support being paid to a 3 ton beeyotch who let the kid quit school, then move out of her house, yet still expects to be paid every freakin' month til hell freezes over), huh? (Yeah, I am ver'much tired and a tad... "testy", shall we say. But, I am also giggling at that. After Dad's email, how could I be in a completely pissy mood anymore, ya know?) Anyhoo... I'mina go make a coupla grilled cheeses and some chicken noodle soup then go to sleep til, hopefully, some time in '07. Or, at least until waaay later today. Then, once I regain consciousness, I have a house needs cleaning, animals who're gonna need tending and of course, after that, yet more horseshit to get rid of.
See why I wanna sleep til next year?
*rolls eyes* Again... aaaaaanyway, thank you all again so very much.
I wish I could articulate how fuckin' awesome you all are for whatcha've done for Norm. Just wow... *update a coupla minutes later* Duuuhhhh... *wipes drool off chin and whacks side of head to uncross eyes* I s'pose it might help a bit if I were to re-post his addresses, huh?

I'm sure the pleasure is all ours (to those who have written & sent packages).
I've been doing this through soldier's angels for a little over a year now and making up the packages are the best. I know what it is like to be far from home and missing the simple things in life.
To help keep your brother warm this winter I sent him some soup, hot chocolate and a girlie magazine.
Will continue to pray for his safe return too.

Well, God bless you for that.
And, for the record, I'll continue to take all the bad luck in the family for a while, as opposed to it being put on Norm.
Ya hear me talkin', God?
(I'm sure you do...)

I came across this today. It looks like your brother is with my better half in Iraq. Same Unit, what a small world.
Give me a holler if you like.
