It's been an eventful week. First Val and her wisdom teeth and then I had a doctor appointment and blood work. Apparently my blood work was good except for something low on the thyroid test so I have to go back Monday to take some more tests... unfortunately they aren't the kind you study for! The vampire is going to get me again!!
Then there is Eric...
I have Eric's old computer downstairs and I use it occasionally while watching TV. Eric has a Gmail account and has his screen name and password saved on his computer. (You'll see why this is relevant in a second)
On Monday I was signing into my Gmail account but didn't realize that Eric's account was still displayed so I ended up in his account. I was going to exit right away but something caught my eye. There was an email about an itinerary from an online travel site. Ok, I shouldn't have but I did. I clicked the email and found out that Eric had a flight to Pittsburgh on June 17. He would be arriving after midnight on the 18th.
On Wednesday I talked to him and asked him about graduation and asked if he was going to have a Leave before he had to report to Camp Lejeune. He said no! At that point I realized that it was a "surprise"! So I didn't say anything else and I didn't tell anyone else except Brian.
When I got home that night there was a post from his friend Chris about picking him up at the airport on the 18th. And Kathy said another friend mentioned that he was coming home. The jig was up!!
Even though it's not a surprise anymore, I'm so happy to have him coming home! And it WILL be a surprise to my dad and Aunt Joan. We are all going to dinner on Father's Day and I'm not telling them that he is here. They'll be surprised when he's sitting at the restaurant waiting for them!
