T'was The Night Before Homecoming...

So it's 0330 here, and I can't sleep for the life of me. No sleepy pills tonight, because I need to hear the phone.
Needless to say, it's gonna be either a REAL early morning, or a REALLY long day tomorrow.
If I stay up for another 2 hours, I'm gonna hit up the Starbucks, because by that time I won't have a choice but to stay awake! haha.
I have been waiting for this day for 10 months, and it almost feels a little surreal that it's finally approaching... approaching slowly, but approaching none the less...
As I look back on this deployment, it seems that I am a much different person than I was before he took off. I've learned a lot about myself and I feel much more independent... Sadly, I have gotten used to him being gone and honestly it's going to be really odd having him in the house, and picking up his dirty clothes off the floor... odd, but wonderfully relieving.
It's less than 12 hours away, maybe even less than that, and I keep wondering what it's going to be like to see his face and wrap my arms around him since R&R back in September. I know that this will be the happiest day of my life, happier than the day we got married, and happier than seeing him for the first time on R&R...because this time, he's here to stay.
I just can't wait.
