i'm standing by...

well, i'm still not sure if i have to go to work tomorrow...checked with a few of my Marine buddies, they're ok...a lot of personal belongings were salvaged and stored in the vaerious meeting rooms and classrooms...good...and it's good to know that they also have a place to stay...my mother was about to call me, but i beat her to the punch...things were ironed out, and nice to know that my step-father was the one who wanted to call me, but he didn't know my number.after a while my lungs started to burn a bit, my throat was scratchy...a call was made out to volunteers...i wish i could...if i was SURE that i didn't have to go to work, i would be the first one there...i've always done that sort of thing...i'll have to call my boss...you see, if i don't work, my coworkers can't work at all...they depend on me to complete the task...i support a team of five...so if i am unable to work, then five guys can't get paid...if i don't have to work, then i'm off to do my volunteer work...i've already donated blood...i can't donate until i've recovered from the last time they sucked me dry...oh well, i should do what i can to support my friends at least...
