Ruby,
I am an NCO. Most of the men under me have their “stuff” together, but I still check on them all the time. If I failed to remind them about something, even if it’s something I would assume they wouldn’t forget, I’d never forgive myself. If I tried to throw anything else away other than the ramen packets they got into, the other soldiers would dig through the trash for it. I used some of the baby wipes you sent to clean everything up. It’s all good… least until Igetsick.
Now you’re lying. There is no way the woman in that picture is 51. She looks like she’s in her thirties. She’s your sister,isn’tshe?
We’ll go with nice to describe myfriends.Heh.
It’s just easier to stay with Max. My dad turned my old room into aworkoutroom.
That costume looks like it’s straight from the movie. Have you thought about going into costume design for movies? What else haveyougot?
You didn’t do anything wrong. Thanks for saying something. I’m over it all now for the most part, but… goddamn, Ruby. It was rough. I was so pissed after she e-mailed me… but you made a good point. I’ve been thinking about her a lot lately… not like that but in general… and there’s a million different times I can think back on now and realize how fishy the things she’d do and say were. Who she would be hanging out with… why she wouldn’t answer the phone when I called… Maybe I’m imagining it, but I’ve got this gut feeling. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t angry about it all over again. I hate feeling like a dumbass. I’ve been in enough shit relationships, you’d figured I’d know and be used to itbynow.
Don’t think I haven’t noticed you being vague about your boyfriend situation. It only makes me more curious. Why haven’t you dated anyone? By the time I was 23, I’d had… a lot ofgirlfriends.
The wedding dress is all right if you’re into those giant princess dresses… are you? I like the skating dress a lot more. Does work ever slow down for you or do you always have something toworkon?
^^You don’t have to answer that. It’s none of mybusiness.
Hope you’re having fun withyourdad.

P.S. Tell me the truth about that picture of your “mom.” You’re pulling my leg,right?

Aaron,
I’m picturing you as a momma bear with your soldiers, but if your nagging keeps them alive, they can deal with it. It’s a lot of responsibility, isn’t it? Have you thought about doing school and becoming an officer? Maybe you’ve already done school. I hate to generalize andassume.
Lol! No! I’ll attach a picture of my older sister. They’re almost identical, but you can tell my mom is the older one. I’ll give you that; they look like sisters. Cross my heart she’s in her early fifties. It’s all good genes, facial products, and she claims it’s helped that she’s never smoked anything in her life and doesn’t drink more than wine atdinner.
I might have believed you and your friends were good until you decided to use “nice.” You’re full of it, and it isn’t pizza you’re full of. You and your friends got into all kinds of mess when you were younger,didn’tyou?
I’ve attached a couple more pictures of cosplay costumes I’ve done and still have. One is the female version of Ghost Rider and the other is Darth Maul. They’ve both been hanging in my closet for years. I think I might see about selling them online. I’ve done that for other costumes I’ve done and knew I’d never use again. There’s a lot more girls who like cosplaying than you would think…. There’s also a lot of parents with senses of humor who are willing to buy costumes fortheirkids.
