Got back to the ship from Challenge Team last night...
I was standby today. This morning I did [no, had the privilege of doing] garbage with the Captain. That is a servant, people.
And THEN I got the biggest surprise - a very special Christmas present of TWO DOZEN ROSES from my man in MN!!!!!! Now HOW did he get them delivered right to the ship somewhere in Lebanon when he's in MN???! I'm asking that too! :)

The most amazing gifts always come when I'm least expecting anything and on the days when I don't feel pretty.
