Friday...
Lt is in Korea. He promises to bring me gifts. The only gift I wish for is his safe return.

Another day
This day is proving, so far, that it will not be a good day.
Fortunately I have this place to speak of it since it is ill-advised to do so among those that are around me. If you would please indulge me I will speak here. It will not be cheerful but the hope is it will help me feel better.
I miss Lt. I want him home. Since the ship is able to do this:
it could be some time before they return. Navy schedules and missions do not compliment mine. Dates continue to change.
Lt emails as he is able. He is enjoying being at sea. I do not fault him for this. Fortunately, for me, we do not video chat. I do not wish him to see I am less than enthusiastic of his absence. It is easier to pretend I am happy with only words. I need not describe my face. I send him only pictures from early in the underway when I smiled more spontaneously. He would surely notice a forced smile.
I do not understand why I am having such difficulty being alone. It is not the first time. I lived alone for several years when I first came to America. I have friends to speak to and spend time with.
I am left with only the thought that I will become accustomed to this life. I have no choice.

Yay...ಠ_ಠ
Typhoon Gucho is coming! It is expected to be a Category 1 storm. It seems we are in TCCOR 2. That means "destructive winds are anticipated in 24 hours." That also means we are supposed to stay at home unless we are "essential personnel" until we are "All Clear."
I suppose it will be alright as long as internet or tv continue to operate. The base post recommends we "Break out the games for the kids, stock up on some movies, and make some popcorn." My question is, what if the power fails?¯\(°_o)/¯
What they fail to suggest is something for those who have no children and whose spouse is currently underway. I know. I am an adult and will think of something but the list of what to do is certainly shorter than what not to do. I can not watch the storm from my dining room door since it faces the storm. There is a hazard of breaking glass. I could likely watch it from my bedroom balcony but the view from there is limited.
Father's Day pot luck was fun.
