And yet...

...they still manage to screw up my evening.

At least it was a phone call, not a brown envelope. I'd really feel guilty if I'd tempted the fates into sending one last brown envelope.

What a pain in the ass... I will be SO glad when we're done once and for all.

Edited to add that I seem to have panicked a few people. Sorry. Don't worry, it's just for the evening, not for the week's training. He'll be home in a few hours.

But wait, there's more... Me and my damn mouth. Now it looks like he may be stuck there through tomorrow afternoon! He's got a majorly important meeting to run tomorrow morning too, with people flying in from abroad especially for it. He's trying to get an exemption but it's not looking good. I just had to shoot my mouth off, didn't I... Freaking ridiculous!

You mean they DID call him to duty? Oh that would just suck.

So sorry I've been away for so long . . . I've been, well, away, and I feel like I've been sick ever since we brought Noe home. But I'm back, and I'm staying healthy (dammit). So I'll join you around the island again soon!

Oh no! So they did call him? Oh man! I'm so sorry.

Not for the training, no. Just for the evening. He'll be home in a few hours. Sorry, didn't mean to overdramatize.

Whew! Glad I read the comments. I hope he doesn't get called. Fingers crossed for you.
[Whaddaya mean that you didn't mean to overdramatize? I thought that's what we were supposed to do! lol]

Whew, as I first read, I thought it was a long term thing!

I'm hoping it's just the evening, not overnight.

Durn it! Do you feel paranoid and helpless? I'd be afraid to ever mention it again, if I were you. I'm so sorry!

I hope this is the final journey.
