Birthday Bla

I have been really sick the last week or so, my birthday was on Monday and even that was a bummer. Some friends and I went out and had a little pizza party Monday night but I think that everyone else was having more fun than me. I was still feeling pretty cruddy and just really missed Derrick.

Speaking of Derrick he is doing well, he is very busy at his job, he has started a fishing club and will soon be playing on a softball team. I am glad that he has some sense of normalcy there, not that it compares to the luxuries of home but that there are many soldiers that have it much worse.
