Home in two weeks. Pray for our safety, because I had a dream wherein we crashed and I was attacked, and eaten, by a giant squid. It's my greatest fear. Always has been. Seriously.
I'll have things to post in July when I can finially sit down and type.
I'm in Kuwait. Will post in length soon. For the record, all info will be three days or more older than it when it actually happened. Just like the news. Gotta get back to fighting for capitalism!
Love yah guys!
Dudes. Low punch. So I’m at work yesterday, when a call comes in for me from the outside line. Now understand that I NEVER get phone calls at work, let alone phone calls from the outside world. So, with my suspicions piqued, I answered it only to hear the all too familiar voice of my NCO, SSG Murphy. At this my gut twisted and I gripped the wall. You see, my Reserve unit was activated and sent to pre-deployment training at the beginning of the month. I was one of the few not called as I have already gone and returned not too long ago. We talked briefly about my up coming plans to move to Virginia and my return to school. Despite our thinly veiled diction and weak attempts at small talk, we both knew that there was only one reason he would be calling me at work.
My attitude is good so far. Surprisingly. Things are working in our favor, praise God. My leave date has been pushed from the 20th to the 29th. Kristina is being strong. Which is good, because I don’t always have enough for myself at this point. We were 90% sure I didn’t have enough time left in for them to even bother, but apparently I have just enough time left. The thought of it all makes me very tired at this point. I despise war.
I’ll save this for later. I just had to vent. Blah.
Oh, that really stinks! Let us know what's going on...can I have your address when you get there? And Kristina's? Do you know how long your deployment will be?
My dad's deployment has been extended to one year...we're not very thrilled about that. I wisht this whole thing could just end tomorrow. Or better yet, today.
