Dirt Sailor: Freeze
http://narmya.blogspot.com/2008/02/freeze.html
A blog detailing my mobilization to Baghdad, Iraq late 2007 to late 2008 with the US Navy. Saturday, February 23, 2008. As we make our way through Baghdad’s surprisingly cold winter, everyone is talking about the freeze. This freeze has nothing to do with temperature; yesterday, Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr (MAS) announced that he is extending the Mahdi Army’s cease fire – or freeze – for an additional six months. JAM has clashed with Coalition Forces (CF) on many occasions, the most serious being a ser...

Dirt Sailor: Service Flag
http://narmya.blogspot.com/2008/10/service-flag-comes-down.html
A blog detailing my mobilization to Baghdad, Iraq late 2007 to late 2008 with the US Navy. Sunday, October 19, 2008. While away, I sent my parents and my attractive wife service flags. To signify I was overseas. Displaying such flags to signify a family member is overseas serving with the military dates back to both World War I and II. Shortly after I got home two days ago, my parents sent me this picture of my father ceremonially taking down the service flag they had displayed outside their house.

A million miles to Mia: Disappointing News
http://miles2mia.blogspot.com/2006/07/disappointing-news.html
Thursday, July 20, 2006. For those of you who don't know me, I suppose I should give you a brief summary of the events of the past 2 years of my life so that you'll understand this post. Don't read any further if you're squeamish. Then on top of all that, I extubated. Luckily, my doc was close by and was able to give me a shot to paralyze me, crank my jaw open off the tube, and re-intubate me in time. In spite of all that bad luck. I survived. Obviously. :). I had a home nurse who, in the beginning, came...

http://miles2mia.blogspot.com/2011/05/most-amazing-baby-shower-ever.html
Sunday, May 15, 2011. The Most Amazing Baby Shower Ever. The attention to detail that was put into every little part of this was just over the top. That's my nursery fabric tied around the chopsticks. See what I mean? My mom made this hot pink and lime green dragon. It's so fabulously awesome. I was speechless. The hostess with the mostest. My tiny BFF, Dominique. We've been friends since the 7th grade. And yes. I towered over her then, too. LOL! We got a late start (surprising, right? My friend's daught...

A million miles to Mia: Time For Reflection
http://miles2mia.blogspot.com/2006/09/time-for-reflection.html
Friday, September 08, 2006. Exactly 2 years ago today, I started my life over. Everything had changed for me. My perspective had been completely altered. I came to realize what's important and what's not. On this day 2 years ago, I began to heal. It's been an ongoing process ever since. September 8, 2004 the doctors removed me from the ventilator that had breathed for my body for 12 days. It took a long time. Even though I was busy. Because WE refused to give up, I am still here. I'll never forget. I com...

Wednesday, June 8, 2011. Sorry I kept you. What's eating Tami today? It's been a long time, I shouldn't have left you. Without a strong rhyme to step to. Think of how many weak shows you slept through. Time's up, I'm sorry I kept you. Yes, I’m back. It’s been six months. S-I-X.

A million miles to Mia: Plan B Becomes Plan A
http://miles2mia.blogspot.com/2006/10/plan-b-becomes-plan.html
Monday, October 09, 2006. Plan B Becomes Plan A. Recently my nephew, Tanner, asked me why I didn't just want to "have a baby in my belly". Although it may be a bit complicated, there is an answer to that question. I realized that I needed to get these reasons out of my head and onto paper somewhere because I want to share them with Mia someday. That's not the plan. I won't even be trying to get pregnant for maybe another year. I wouldn't even need Plan B for awhile yet. What WAS my purpose? When others j...
