Yesterday was a long day of hurry up and wait. Jasmine took me to the airport (SFO) in the morning and we shared some good byes and she cried a little practicing her dabbing technique for the wedding.
The rest of the day was a long flight to Charlotte, NC first, and then a very short flight to my final destination of Columbia, SC. The first flight was a little disappointing; a 5 hour flight across country, no screen on my seat, no screen overhead, not even peanuts. I spent most of the time trying to access the Germany Denmark Euro Cup game, but the internet on the plane was really slow so I was able to watch about 5 seconds of game, ten minutes of buffering, 5 seconds of game, ten minutes of buffering. Germany did win in the end 2-1, and the flight wasn't as bad, the pilots were good, and it was a clean air the whole way there. The connecting flight in Charlotte was a quick turn around, so I jogged to the connecting gate, only to get on and take some time to relax because there were some late flights and we were waiting for people and luggage. We took off about a 45 minutes late, and spent twenty minutes in the air.
Upon arrival in Columbia, I grabbed a cab and was off to Fort Jackson. When I arrived, there was a group of students with a letter for s all telling of a bunch of events for the next day I wasn't prepared for, and equipment I was not previously informed to have. This caused a little stress, and late night polishing. As it turns out the letter was old, most of the stuff was not needed fro the day, and it was atypical admin day with not a lot going on. I wish I could write more, especially about the woman I love, but I am pretty tired, have an early start tomorrow, and have a bit of a headache so I will talk to Jas a little longer on the phone and call it a night.

P.S. Jas keeps thinking Im in NC, Im actually in SC.
