soon to be abandoned

Well, it looks like I'll be by myself for a little while. Mr. P is shipping out. For the sake of OPSEC and the fact that I know nothing about its rules, we'll just leave out all of the details. I'm already bumming around as is, but I will probably reach the peak of my yucky laziness when he's gone. I should probably work out some type of schedule so that I make sure I'm exercising and getting out. I don't really want to waste away in front of my computer and find cobwebs in my nostrils...or something ridiculous (yet probable) like that.

Another issue? How am I supposed to get my mail? It usually goes through the office, so now I'm unreachable via mail. Question time...

1. Can I rent out a personal PO Box at the Foster P.O.? Or are they reserved for PSC people? I hope not, bc I want my mail w/o going through the slow office process.

That's just technical stuff, I suppose. I should be spending my limited time with my bald husband. We had a really nice 4 day weekend aka 96. He finished his tattoo background, and it looked very painful & bloody. He also stained the pillow last night with his inky scabs, but thankfully that came out.

We spent about 2 days furniture/house shopping. We're trying to make our place look more like a home, instead of a badly put together dorm room. We're thinking of moving when the lease is up, so I'm concerned about having too much furniture, if we should move into something smaller. I feel so adult-like when I talk about furniture and living arrangements---.

We also went to Naha to eat pho. That was a very filling experience. We didn't stay very long because we were late for our furniture delivery. 1 hour late, I'm so sorry! Please don't punish me Karma.

Another fun activity? We went to see cherry blossoms aka sakura at Mt. Yaedake. It's around the Nago area, and we had a good time. (Well, I did.) I'll post some photos up along with a longer post, but it was very nice.

I don't think I've ever done as much as we did this 96 than any other weekend/weekends combined. I feel awesome and culturally engaged. That was a really cheesy evaluation, but I think it was fairly accurate. Most weekends are spent playing games, watching tv, and watching people get drunk and annoying. This was definitely a great improvement.
