Nevermind

As of right now, N is NOT deploying. I know this seems like a good thing, but he was supposed to leave in a few days, and was fully prepared to go (looking forward to the opportunity, actually) and they dropped a little wrench in the plans. By telling us "He's going, 110% sure of it" and then waiting until the final hours to change their minds, they have screwed us mentally and financially. We're pretty pissed about all of that. Regardless, thank you for your well wishes and concerns, it means a lot. Regularly scheduled blogging to follow.
