I said goodbye to Mark tonight. It was kind of sad. He's starting a two year tour in Bahrain. It's not like we were close friends, but he was a good man. He'll certainly be missed in the troop. I'm not sure it would still be together if it weren't for him.
I'm going to visit my extended family in Indiana this weekend. I'm not really looking forward to it. It will be okay, but I'm not very excited about it. Probably the best part is that I'm taking along our department's laptop. I might even get some online time.
I saw something in the grocery store that was just wrong. Patriotic Peeps. They were white with red and blue sprinkles. But it wasn't your average sprinkles, like sugar or jimmies, it was shreds of somethingorother. Just randomly sized... shreds. It looked awful. And then there was the issue of Peeps. Patriotic peeps? Show your deidcation to the red white and blue by eating something that's red white and blue! And it's a manufactured snack food. Whatever happened to apple pie? Oh yeah, Hostess bought the rights. I suppose Patriotic Peeps summarise what a lot of people see in America - must consume mass quantities!
