Here's an update.

1) Matt has been placed back into a platoon. He graduates 01/19/07

(I feel like he's literally on another planet.)

3) I voted for a democrat for the first time in my life.

4) My brother Jim has moved to charlotte (It's a good thing...so far....I think)

5) Watching Mel's dating life has been as awkward as seeing a dovet toilet in a double wide trailer.

6) I can tighten my belt one notch tighter without my gut sticking out (thanks to Ty).

7) I was called white trash and shortly therafter came very close to giving my first black eye.

8) I was reminded that I was considered a dork at Montreat College

9) In one week's time, I came rediculously close to going London....and Hawaii
