CRUISE UPDATE:

nothing new. still working on ESWS. started working out too. its been over a year since i last lifted, so im pretty sore now. but its good. working a lot too. i only get about 5 hours of sleep a day now because of work. it sucks but...im used to it.
got a letter from Kyle the other day! said boot camp is hard, but he likes it. its in the 100's almost everyday he mentioned. also said its fast paced, a lot of training, and a lot of stuff to learn. but he will do good. he has four months (at Fort Benning, GA). hopefully he can come home for Christmas that would be really cool.

WORLD UPDATE:

at 8am Monday, a cease-fire was set between Irael and Lebanon. so far its holding up. but no one is sure witch side "won"...easch side has their say, and each side is saying THEY won.
who knows where that'll go....

...thats the big news, otherwise nothing much but usual chaos!
