I'm a Citron and you're a something that isn't a Citron... so we probably just mixed in different circles. Anyone who does know me, knows that I'm the furthest thing from sentimental... so if you should suffer an upchuck urge from reading this (of what I hope will be many) posts on this blog, know that while it may seem sugary... it's honest. I really admire what you're doing. I'm 26 as well, and have found myself looking back lately on friends I've lost to time... and the various versions of me that have been lost with them. I live in my own little world most days... and so it was utterly refreshing, if a little jarring, to read your blog, and realize how paltry my fears are compared to some. You are doing something that I would never have the courage to do. I'm not a desert kinda guy. I'm sure you've had tons of people who you actually know say things far more meaningful to you in the past few weeks... but for what it's worth: Come home safe. Write a kickass book. And if I ever bump into you in the real life... I'll spring for a pint of Guinness. Keep your head down. -Andrew I don’t think we ever really spoke to one another at school.

You sound like you're doing great. I'm feeling extremely nostalgic as I'm reading this. Okay, not really nostalgic, but something like nostalgia... more like all of a sudden I've realized that people my age (including me and certainly including you) are doing things that actually _mean_ something now. I also (perhaps strangely) feel very proud of you after reading this. Good luck in Iraq, Libby. I promise to think of you often. Bethany Oh, Libby. You sound like you’re doing great.

I'm looking forward to reading all you have to say. I love you, and I miss you. Stay safe, and stay happy. Before you know it, we'll be back to being regular, beautiful women . . . with a few stories to tell. All my love, Beth Libs,

I miss you so much. I hope I will see you at Tipton this year and my family and I hope you will be safe and will keep you and the rest of your family (especially Becca and Megan) in our prayers. Andy (Becca's friend) will be playing the Marines Hymn for you tomarrow and also as a solo at solo and ensemble. He is doing it for your honor. We will all keep you in our minds while you are gone for 7 months. We all miss you and hope to see you soon Bye. Sara Neville Hey Libby, its Sara. I miss you so much.
