A New Hair Style

Well, still no address to share with everyone. I lugged my cell phone w/ me everywhere (yes, even into the bathroom) on Sat. to ensure I didn't miss Matt's phone call. My sister-in-law, Karen, called me early in the afternoon and wouldn't you know it about 5 mins. into the call another call comes through. Its a area code and phone number I don't recognize so it must be Matt. I yell at Karen that I have to get off the phone, its Matt! In the process of trying to pick up the waiting call...I hang up on him! I franticly try to pull up "recent received" calls and try to call him back...it won't let you! I very placid recording of a women's voice says that the party I am try to reach can not be reached at this number...huh? I will the phone to ring again. I beg the phone to ring again. At this point I am sure I have missed my one opportunity to talk to Matt and to get an address, and then the phone rings. Im sure we had a couple of mins, but it felt like a 30 sec phone call.
Matt says he is doing well and has a very stylish new cut. Everything is pretty easy now since they are still in reception, other than a lack of sleep. Their first night they got to bed (ahh and yes Matt used the term "rack") at 230 and were up at 430. He has also gotten another leadership position, platoon guide, for this phase of basic.
I am hoping to here from him in the next few days when they move from reception to basic and that phone call will hopefully include an address.
Wish I had more to share.
