Watch out citizens of Kern County. As of tonight, there is a new Sheriff in town. Well, to put it correctly, a new DEPUTY Sheriff. It's official. Popeye has finished academy. With a signed letter from a commander and a slip of paper listing his badge number he was sent home for the night, along with instructions to return at o'dark hundred hours to practice and participate in tomorrow's (or technically, today's) graduation ceremonies.
It is the day we'd always hoped and prayed for, but the day we never thought would arrive.
My hunky man-o-love is a badge-carrying, gun-toting, baton-jabbing, peace-keeping man of the law.
Oh, how I rejoice with him this night. And my-oh-my how I LOVE my studly hot cop.
