Ok, I've tried to post inside twice and not succeeded. I think the gods are against me and telling me not to post this. Here goes. Don't throw too many things at me. I've thought about this all weekend. When Harm and Mac got their new assignments their eyes just glowed. They both have said they didn't want to leave the navy. I've been married 30 years (this month) and I still love my husband very much, but I know that the bloom soon leaves the rose. If one of them gives up their career for the other, I can see resentment as the one still in continues with advancement. On the other side, I can see the one still in feeling gulity with each promotion. Unless in the other universe someone manages to change assignments and they both are able to stay in, I think that while DPB gave us the shipper ending we wanted - he also gave us a lose/lose proposition. I feel that in a situation such as this, those feelings will grow each year and make a happy marriage difficult. I think DPB is laughing at us even now. Someone please make me feel better. I want the marriage to work, but I don't want either to have to sacrifice for the other. They should both get want they want-each other and their navy career. Does this rambling make sense?
