Not long after Michael left yesterday Jill called, which was good, because I always already extremely bored. Not that I don't have a thousand things to do around the house, I just didn't feel like doing any of them. She came down and we ate a little Taco Bell and then went over to the outlet mall to do a little shopping. They were having amazing deals (back to school shopping is the best time to shop) and we picked up a few things. I got a shirt from Gap for $4! I also got Lucas a few outfits and Jill got Abby and the new baby some clothes. I can't wait until she has her. Shopping for those itty bitty baby clothes makes me anxious for her birth and increases my baby fever. After that, I came home and got into my pj's around 5pm and just got comfortable on the couch to watch a movie and Wanda calls. She was just shopping at the outlet mall with Brittney and wanted to stop by. So they came over and we chatted until 9pm or so. So my first day home alone wasn't really so bad. I did some shopping and saw a couple of my very good friends.
Unfortunately, Michael's first day up in Michigan didn't go as well. He wasn't even there 10 minutes when some Private hit his car in the parking lot. He walked out there and the kid tells him he hit it and it's okay, because it's just a little scratch. Well, Michael can't even open the door (passenger side). The rooms are very small and there's no air conditioning, so he's going to be hot and miserable (he called this morning again and said he barely slept). The chow hall food is disgusting and he thinks he's going to starve for the next two weeks. I feel so bad for him. I'm so glad the government takes such good care of its soldiers.
