Monday, September 12

so yesterday i went to the movies cause i was bored. i bought my ticket and walked into the lobby aboot to go to my movie.
when who do i run into but none other than my bud Haggerton from A school!
i was like, HOLY SHIT. its been awhile since ive seen him, March was the last time we hung out.
then he says another bud of mine, Beach, from boot camp and A school, is here too!
i thought DAMN i picked a good day to come to the movies!
so we met up and talked for a bit. Haggerton is stationed onboard the USS WASP (LHD-1) which is homeported here in Norfolk. Beach is onboard the USS VICKSBURG (CG-69) which is homeported in Mayport, FL. and by chance the Vicksburg is moored right next to my ship and i didnt even know it. freakin weird. and yet another boot camp/A school buddy of mine is on the USS TRENTON (LPD-14) which is moored behind my ship on the other side! talk aboot coinsidence. the Wasp is a couple peirs down, but i can see it from my ship. pretty cool...

anyway after our movie, we walked back to our ships, shootin the shit and whatnot. talked aboot how they were both at A school until the summer, we compared eachothers ships, i told them aboot my surge (they havent been on any long deployments yet), talked aboot home, our ports, so on and so on.
it was really cool to finally see and talk to them. it made my day.
i am now a happier person.

by the way, the movie was 'The Exorcisom Of Emily Rose'. very good movie; very tense. definetly recommend it.
