hey there. so i guess i need to sit down and write an email since everyone thinks that julie is the only one that is doing any work around here. sheesh. i go to work for like 8 hours a day then i still have to come home and write all my peeps about what i did. I figure if i keep julie informed then she'll keep everone else informed. its a pretty good system.
i liked the picture of auden under the stroller. gotta start her out right. i'm excited to have my own, but mine's a boy so he'll like that kinda stuff. plus i won't have to worry about hair and dresses and jewelry. all in all its a better deal to have a boy. Sorry cody.
the jobs cool. we had a tour come through about 2 weeks ago. it was a bunch of cadets from the academy. bunch of punk kids. i think they were all seniors but they all looked way young. its weird to think that these kids will be the leaders of tomorrow. makes me think that i could do that job. the one girl came into the shop the next day because she is going to be a maintenance officer in good ol' wichita falls. but they came through and we ran the engine for them. then they let them go inside the actual cell when the engine was running with full after burner. well i tagged along so i could see. we had ear plugs in and ear muffs and it was still loud. its amazing the power that these put out. with the after burner these engines put out about 25,000 lbs of thrust. the amount of air they move is nuts!. when i was in the cell it rumbled all of my guts. it was litterally sucking the air out of my nose. thats the closest anybody can get to that experience without actually jumpimg in the cockpit. I can't even imagine what it would be like to fly one of those. awesome.
i'm sure julie told you all about our moving experince. it wasn't fun but i guess its par for us when we have to move. i expect that when the 7th of july rolls around it will be raining then.
i found out the other day that all of the training that i did in tech school i have to go over again here. its part of my upgrade training. i'm not too happy about it but it'll be nice to review a bunch of things so that i feel more comfortable with them. but i love what i'm doing and it gives me a lot of time to get the things done that need to be done.
so i'm ready for the kid to get here. I'm bored with julie already. i need to someone else to play with. just jokin' but i guess it'll be awhile before i can wrestle with him. oh well. julie gave me my "father's" day present. key word is father. it was some onsies, some burp rags, some bibs and a video game. she made me breakfast in bed too. its hard to enjoy a nice morning in bed when church is at 9 and it takes 10 minutes to get there. but it was good. tomorrow i have off and i think we'll just relax or maybe go get a massage. it'll be good.
I tried to get a hold of dad today too but no go. it went straight to voicemail. i guess by the time you get this it will be a week later. i hope you guys had fun and the drama wasn't too much to handle. i wish we could have been there. julie figured out the other day that it would cost us about $3000 to come back to the states. so we need to plan our time wisely. I'm sure we'll make it back some time we just don't know when right now.
well that about does it for this letter. I should be able to write some more next 'preparation day' :) i hope all is well and i'll write later.
peace out
Bryan
