So talked to Danny and he should be coming home sometime in the next 2 weeks! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. so excited.

I just spent the past hour on youtube searing "military homecomings" and cried 90%

of the time. I always do that for some reason. I think it just hits home with me because my broher is a marine, and was sent to iraq and when he stepped off the bus all i could do is cry, so i know all the emotions that these people in the youtube videos are going through.

anyway just thought id share with u guys that i just cried for an hour haha.

cant wait until dannys home.... im just ready to be with him, finally.



oh and not to mention i can tell im freaking out about it... i got on the treadmill for 3 miles today... what the hell? i never get on there for 3!! mayvbe two tops.. but not three? i just kept on listening to music that reminded me of him and before i knew it... i waso n my last lap of the third mile.



question... should i get anything for danny? we're "dating/talking" but not boyfriend and girlfriend.. we started talking while he was over there. but i know hes taking me somewhere on the 4th because apparently i have to keep that date "open" for only him... sp i feel like i should do/give him something as well. And i really want to give him something Any ideas?

" military homecomings ALWAYS make me cry. i saw this one video of a soldier who came home and his dogs were so excited to see him, and im just sitting there bawling like a maniac. ^-^

and good for you three miles, that's awesome! gettin' buff! as for a welcome home present i think that would be wonderful. im not really sure what you should get him. i suggest something with a lot of thought put into it so he knows you care. "

" is there anything that he's really into that you could make a gift out of? like, something he's hugely into? like, if my marine friend was coming home (he hasn't deployed yet) id give him a bag of oreos cuz he's crazy obsessed with those things. i dunno, make it personal. "
