Steve is Safe and Sound!

I woke up up last night to a phone call, it was Steve, who I had been trying to get a hold of for months.
I thought something crazy happened to him or something, since he is in the Navy now that he's out of college, and was NROTC then.
But no, he called me from somewhere in the Pacific while on a secret mission- scary- but I am very glad to know he's still around; though I wish he was still in Corpus, safe and sound in TX.
However, it turns out he will be heading out to Iraq eventually.

I met Steve yeeeears ago, when we both did Presidential Classroom in DC. Ha, that was a good summer. That was the summer I was Miss Teen Bellaire in the Miss Teenage Texas Scholarship Pageant.

And I remember him being very funny, telling this story about some Scottish Man, and the reason his screen name is... oops, i won't give you that. I also remember after we left DC, getting a postcard from him in the mail all the way from Italy, while he was on tour with a band.
And I remember how he talked to my mom on the phone, and how they got along so well when he visited me in Houston (They share a common Bond, haha that was punny, what I mean is they talked about Stocks the whole time).
She asks about him alot, now I can say where he is, sorta of, since he's on a secret mission he can tell me nothing about, cause he's dealing with the the big kids.

Mr. Steve. Unfortunately long-distance, but one of my favorite long distance friendships. And i think, maybe even at this point, the longest.
