I'll ever be lucky enough again to ever be so happy.  Go ahead and tell me that I'm silly for blabbering like that.

Hell, I don't know Phil, maybe you haven't been impressed with the whole thing like I have.

I guess about all I can do now is hope that you write to me, and that the day will come around when we meet again.  I'm really tired and when I hit that bunk I'll fall asleep in no time at all.  I'm glad though because that will give my mind a chance for a good rest.

Now, its up to you Phil.  Try to answer as fast as you can.  I'm still wondering how far I can go in my letters to you, and wish I'd never say anything you wouldn't like.

It's all like a dream to me, (cross my heart) and things in black and white will make it possible for me to realize that it was all actually true.  

Goodnight Phil, and take good care of yourself.

Yours,
[[underlined]] Steve [[/underlined]]
