so padre's change of command was today.  pretty spiffy stuff really.  i just think military ceremony is neat... even if my dad hates it.  but i got to stand in line & shake hands with like 100 people i dont know & will probly never see again.  pops, nana, aunt cindy & uncle jimmy came down from mississippi to surprise him at his ceremony, it was really nice.

but my grandparents have given upon me becoming a dentist & at least stopped harping on me about how i will never make a living teaching band... whatever.  they arent the only people who dont support me in that, but i just dont care.  for once im gonna do what i want to do.
