done with deployment

[marathoner452]

I've just finished outprocessing from DRO #865-06, Katrina/Rita Louisiana. I served hundreds of meals to the good people of the 9th Ward, West Gentilly, and Violet. I've become addicted to Purell and etouffee and single serving packs of cookies. I've also come to learn some of how complicated the rebuilding process down here in "N'Awlins" is going to be, but I'm proud to say that I've been a part of it.

More later.

I know I've said it before, but it's true--I'm so proud to know that you were a part of it, and as New Orleans returns to its glory, you'll begin to realize how much good you really did. I can't wait to hear all about your experience. :-)

You've done good, and will continue to do good. Echoing Adam, I'm very proud of you! You'll have to teach us all how to make etouffee now. :)

[roadwarrior220.livejournal.com]

Agreed. :-) Etouffee sounds so good.

Awesome! Thank you so much for your service. I'm sorry we never got to meet.

(btw, Purell brings back triggering memories now for me...)

You are becoming an amazing woman my dear

I have to correct you on that--she IS an amazing woman. And I'm beyond blessed to be her boyfriend. :-)

I will not go on past this, cause I dont like using bethany's livejournal as a means to converse with you. It is just disrespectful to her. That is nice, but my reference was to her and the growth she has made since I first met her, and the growth she is still in the process of making. What you have to realize is I have known her since the elementary school. Anyway, best of luck to you and her.

I know what you were saying, and I wasn't making any reference to anything other than the fact that you're right and that I'm proud to be with her--I didn't say what I said with any other intention.
