Aim High Baby!

So I'm supposed to be working on my thesis right this very second because I'm defending in front of my committee this Thursday! ...but I'm having a hard time sitting down ...and not shouting or for that matter crying uncontrollably or laughing like a complete lunatic ...all the while, running around the computer lab like a wild man and scaring unsuspecting college students ...take your pick.

I have been accepted to the Air Force people! Yeah, Wow! Thank you everyone for your prayers because they were answered! Berni and I are very excited and feel the burden of "job uncertainty" lifted from off of our shoulders. Oh and did I mention that we are going to be stationed in Santa Barbara? Amazing! Just thought I'd let everyone know. Oh man, my thesis, better get that done, I guess I have to graduate first right!?

Can I please get a "hallelujah"!

Ryan, That is Awesome! Congratulations! I am excited you are going to be in Santa Barbara. I travel to Vandenburg Air Force Base all the time (I am here right now) for work and will be able to stop by and see you.

Kim said...

Hallelujah is right! We're just happy to have you back on the West Coast! Maybe we'll see you this Christmas - it's our 'ON' year and you've missed the last 2! Love ya!

I'm already planning our girls nights out for Berni and I...hmmm, should we start with Jamocha (Jamaican?) shakes and then go illegal Mariott hot-tubbing or should we find a junk yard, revive ol' Wanda and find a Godfather's that hasn't gone out of businesss??? Soooo many options. Can't wait to be just a few hours apart and to be on the same coast again!

Way to go Ryan, that's quite a haul for you. Great job. Good luck on your thesis...and thanks ahead of time for babysitting while the ladies go out and play. :o)
