What a CRAZY day!!!
I got in a taxi around 12:15, got to O'hare by 1:30. My flight left at 15:00 and I was in P-Cola by 17:15. THEN comes the fun part!
I got a pretty red Toyota corolla for a rental car....with a GPS system. Let me tell you, this was the greatest thing since sliced bread! I would have been in Alabama by now if it weren't for this handy little voice telling me to "turn in 0.2 miles!" (And then "re-calculating" the directions when I missed the turn! haha) I'm glad they didn't program the voice to say something like, "Idiot! You missed the turn! Turn around and go back!" HAHA oooooohhhh I crack myself up! :)
Right this moment, I'm sitting in a DELUXE hotel room in the BOQ (Bachelor Officer Quarters). I have a full size bed and 2 TV's, 2 couches, a desk with high-speed internet, 2 walk-in closets with an IRON and ironing board!!!!!! I am SO EXCITED! :) :) :) Yippi! I think I danced for like 10 minutes to myself when I say my rooooom! Anyways, it's really nice and I love being a Navy Officer! I have a grin on my face from EAR to EAR!
James and Mike are on their way to Arizona today...I hope they make it by tonight. They have gone so far in only 2 days! On a different note, I think my sister has a "thing" for Mike E......she has been calling them quite a bit! And the morning they left, when they were eating breakfast at my parent's house, my sister woke up at 5am. She NEVER wakes up earlier than she has to, so this was a VERY rare occurence. Sooooo yeah. She's never dated or anything, she's a big tomboy. We'll just have to see how this goes! How neat (or dangerous!) would it be to have Mike E for a brother-in-law!???? HaHa
Well, my tummy's growling at me...time for some dinner. And some exploring of the base. Too bad I don't have my camera!
