Cravings of a Deployed Airman

Since about DD 90 I've been getting these strong cravings for certain foods. It started off with the obvious things; steak, pizza, or a Moe's burrito ("welcome to Moe's"). But now they are turning into something entirely different. My latest craving is for salami, a food I rarely even eat at home. I imagine these are the cravings women feel during their pregnancy.

Luckily this last craving was an easy fill. My parents sent me a small summer sausage that I received today. I really didn't need it, but being the best parents in the world, they sent it right away. I am sure my dad told the postal clerk the care package was for very important government business. ;-)

They also sent Valentine cookies for the (cookie) monster in me, a package of Payday candy bars, jerky, some magazines, and a DVD for my fever, my baseball fever that is. Spring training started this week for pitchers and catchers! More on that tomorrow.

Thank you Mom and Dad!

New rule: never make an analogy to you being a pregnant man. ;)

Salami is a weird thing to crave though. I thought that was one lunch meat you didn't really like.

Do they have Moe's in Ohio? I'll always think of you, Ernie and Laura when I see a Moe's.
