Update

So Kirk decided to leave me just 3 weeks after the wedding! How rude is that!?

I took him to the airport yesterday in San Diego. He's on his way to Virginia to report to Officers Candidate School for the Marine Corps. He's supposed to be there for 10 weeks and is set to graduate on December 12th. After that I am planning to move out to Virginia while he finishes up the rest of Officers training. We'll probably be out there until at least October of 09.

I of course have mixed emotions about the whole thing-- my main fear is that I will freeze to death =) But more than anything it is very exciting to have the chance to live out on the East coast for a while. It's only 30 miles south of DC, so there will be lots to see and explore.

I can't talk to him for the first 3 weeks, so that's going to be hard...
