OK - today was kind of a drag. It's going to be a long day - not even close to over yet. BUT... I swung by crew welfare today to talk about the possibility of performing a production show for the crew one night. While that conversation ended up being a scheduling nightmare, and has yet to be resolved, the Crew Welfare Specialist - Jerny - remembered seeing some mail for me. My heart lit up when I had not only 1 but 2!!!! packages waiting for me! SUPER exciting.
The first, not so exciting, but VERY necessary, was a shipment of undies from my momma! THANKS MOMMA!
The second, very exciting, and very necessary, and very PINK! was a care package from Terry!!!! THANKS TERRY! The collection of letters cards and pictures I have taped to my wall is slowly growing in a very homey way :) And now I am well stocked with lots of things - like knee highs, and razors, and toothpaste, and several other great things too. And finally a new pair of earrings so that I can acutally feel like a girl again even when I am stuck wearing mens clothes 24/7. Hahahaha.
Thanks to mom & future-mom-in-law!!! You guys are incredibly wonderful.
I haven't had enough time in my cabin yet today to unpack all of my gifts yet, but as soon as the second show finishes - midnight or so - it's like i get to move in all over again! AND the BEST PART is that I got new socks and new underwear on laundry day. But I forgot to pick up my laundry before the facility closed for the night, so I don't have to go commando and/or sockless sneakers tomorrow. It's like the best hi-five from fate ever.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.
Oh, and for those of you who didn't know - the onboard phone card machine was broken for over 5 weeks. I just talked to Brian for the first time since he went to Australia the day before yesterday. Only 12 minutes until our satellite reception was cut, but it was worth it! I bought 2 cards, so you can be expecting phone calls sooner than later! :D
Love!
