RAN

R A N- three letters I hate. So I got a call from Eammon earlier this week giving me some bad news. He signed up in January for RAN (the Royal Australian Navy) and now they are calling him into duty. He hasn't heard anything from them since about February so he figured he wasn't needed. Well I guess he is. He'll be leaving at the end of this month or the beginning of next month which means he's not coming to visit. I cried when he told me, not necessarily because he wouldn't be coming which I am bummed about but more because it's terrifying not knowing what could happen. He told me it's okay because 1. It's Australia, how much trouble do they really get into and 2. It's the Navy he wont really be in battle....unless necessary. I'm so mixed with emotions. I'm scared, sad, and happy (he has wanted to do this since he was little). On the plus side he will be traveling and some main stops will be America. So I will be able to see him eventually. He's not sure how long he'll be gone. I hope not long.
