nothing new today. a little tired from this morning, had the 4-8am watch.

finally got around to taking pictures of the BMX and me. they turned out all right. it was really sunny so they are bright. ill be taking more (and better) ones in the near future! hopefully some action ones too.

still getting ready for an early deployment. no word yet but better safe then sorry.

we had some bad news the other day too. it seems on of the guys on our ship committed suicide a couple days ago. not sure how or why. he was found by a friend in his apartment around 2am. i didnt really know him, but its still sad.
