I found this...it made me laugh.
1. You wear his old sweatpants and sweatshirts to bed.(I have two shirts...haha)
2. You can watch whatever you want on TV without arguing with him first.
3. You get up in the middle of the night to check your e-mail.(Last thing before bed, first thing in the morning)
4. You sleep with your cell phone incase he calls in the middle of the night.(Right under my head, ringer on high)
5. You love watching cute love movies because it reminds you of all the cute things he does when he's home. (So hard for me to do.)
6. You haven't shaved your legs in weeks.(eh, I shave more then that...its just gross)
7. The mailman knows you because you are always out waiting for him to come.(no mail coming, but the guy at the post office knows me!)
8. You start paying close attention to anyone when the words "military" or "iraq" are mentioned.(All the time, my ears perk up)
9. You suddenly have an obsession with anything military related.
10. You see someone wearing an army, navy, or usmc shirt and you get this overwhelming urge to talk to them.
11. You make friends with strangers online just because they are in the same situation as you and are the only ones that can truely understand what you are going through.
12. You can't decide what to wear when you meet him at the airport because his flight comes in at a rediculous hour in the morning and you want to look cute, but not too cute, because your cutest outfit you want to save for your first full day together.(I am currently planning outfits for the first week, any suggestions would be appreciated)
13. Your first Christmas together is.... apart.(Yea, but he still made it amazing!)
14. You find yourself checking your e-mail every fifteen minutes.(Especially when I know he will be getting online soon)
15. You know all the time differences between where you are and Iraq, Ireland, Kuwait, Italy, Germany, Korea, and every state in the U.S.(Well, I know the time in Helmand Province, Afghanistan)
16. The highlight of your day is getting a letter that was mailed a month ago.
17. And if you don't get a letter, the highlight of your day is writing him a letter that you know he will be able to read in a month.(I write a lot...maybe too much? lol)
18. You realize that HOMECOMING is so much more than a football game.
19. You want to hit any happy couple you see together.(hit them, hard...often)
20. You get excited about "unknown" phone numbers calling you.(My heart jumps every time my phone rings)
21. You've exhausted every idea a brain could have of what to put in a box.
22. You see a "support our troops" sticker on a car when you are stuck in traffic and you find yourself guessing about who they know that is deployed and thinking about their entire life story.(Or I you get really annoyed with "if you really support our troops, post this as your status for an hour" uhhh thanks?)
23. When the clock says 11:11, you find yourself wishing for the same thing everytime: a call from your soldier.
24. You get excited when its only 9 months until you see your soldier instead of 12!(Luckily it was never 12...)
25. You can't stand girls that talk about missing their boyfriends who live a few hours away. You just want to yell "drive and go see them then" because if you had the chance, you would jump on the first plane to go see your soldier no matter how far it is.(hahahahaha sooo true)
26. You don't know what teams are on top for football, basketball, etc.
27. You wouldn't dream of walking out of the house without the cell phone and every number you have is forwarded to that cell.(I never leave without that darn phone, charged)
28. You find yourself randomly crying from just looking at a picture of the two of you together.(sad, but true)
29. You find yourself randomly crying and you sometimes have no idea why.(it is called being an emotional mess...)
30. You stay on the internet for hours searching for anything and everything about the military.(yea...basically)
31. You talk to your friends about him so much that they know his full name, birthday and even his favorite color.(hahaha maybe...not that crazy)
32. You are reading this and smiling and nodding because you know it's so true(hahaha the entire time...)
