What we say we don't always mean

Today I was standing in the doorway to the kitchen facing away from Bobbie and she said she really likes looking at my backside. I turned around and said "well!", in a very confident manner. She got all blushy and started to explain what she really meant, talking about my hair and neck and the way I look from behind. But I know what she really meant. Of course she still denies it, but it made me feel a bit funny, in a good way.

Rala Rala Chaka De La Baka

I learned this from two Navy guys, Jared and Nate. I met both of them this past week during thanksgiving. Jared is Bobbie's step-brother and Nate is Jared's friend from the Navy. I took these along with some others while I was waiting for Bobbie to get off work. How it is done is simple. If you don't have someone there to take the picture for you you can place the camera on a solid surface and use the timer. You must make sure you can relax you face completely. Then you set the timer and shake your head rapidly side to side similar to a dog. It may take a couple of tries to get a good one but it causes for time well spent. I don't know why, but I have decided to call this crazy act Rala Rala Chaka De La Baka. Enjoy!

Pictures

These two are of her ring. Oh so pretty!!
awww, we are so cute.
This one is Jacob, her step bro. And me.
This one is from her bro's wedding.

The ring was given

Wednesday I finally gave her the ring. We haven't taken any good pics of it yet but we plan on doing that here shortly. I was going to wait a little while to ask but I couldn't help it. We play racketball every couple of days and on wed. we weren't able to cuz both courts were being used. We were sitting in the truck thinking about what to do next and I couldn't help myself any longer. I said I have a question for her and I gave her the box and asked her if she would marry me. She said yes and started doing the things girls do when this sort of thing happens, she hugged me and got all teary. It was great!

This be my mostest, newest, blogest...blog, sorry.

Well this is my first entry into the Blog I created yesterday. I was going to put one in then but I had to go somewhere...th the...for the life of me I can't remember. But I had to go somewhere so I just left it alone. Today is a good day so far. We had a change of command ceremony in the freezing cold wind. I just switched over to 1st Batt. of the 101. It has a lot of potential to be gooder. I had tried to go over to them while in theater but my SGM wouldn't allow it. (I just looked over at a picture of my sweetums, she is sooo amazing) So now I am with them and it is kinda cool. They seem to work a little more, not necessarily MOS related but they are a bit more active. I am looking forward to being in the "real" Army finally. My last Unit was really kind of crappy as most of you have heard me say. It still amazes me how unprofessional B Co. 96th ASB of the 101 is. I am hoping to have a better outlook on life and on my career as a soldier in the United States Army. I think this will be all for now. I wanted to start again writing a journal and writing to my family and letting them know what is going on since I am the only one who is so far away. This should be a good way to do both. Plus Bobbie and I can put things in here as we continue on together. She is so great and I can't wait for you all to meet her.
