Death By Boredom
Look at this 2 postings within a week.
I’m still in Kuwait and will be here until who knows when. I’m actually hanging out at the Starbucks this morning. Mainly because internet in the tent during the day is, well, nonexistent and this is the best place to get on the net. As long as I don’t look out the window or pay attention Arabic like English it’s just like I’m at home. From the drinks down to the pastries. It’s standing room only here, I actually had to setup on a 5 foot stack of skimmed milk boxes. We still have not got word of when we’ll be leaving here. I sure hope it sometime soon because I’m going to go crazy between living out of a bag and doing nothing.

I know from time to time I get some stragglers stopping by. If any of you happened to be deploying for the first time and is unsure of what to bring shoot me an e-mail. I have been debating on putting together a list of those things and so far I have not found a reason to.
Till next time.
And We’re Back
So after months of being absent I’m back. Last time I updated this I was at Camp Shelby, MS. Since then I’ve been to NTC out at Fort Irwin, CA and I revisited Fort Bragg for a few weeks. But right now I’m in Kuwait, I’ve been in Kuwait since the 16th of April and I will be here until who knows. They haven’t given me any sort of time frame of when I will be leaving for Iraq. I sure hope it’s sometime soon though because sleeping on cots and living out of a duffel bag for the lat 3 months is getting old. Have you ever tried to find a pair of socks at the bottom of a duffel bag without unpacking it? It’s not fun you end up grabbing everything else but a pair of socks. Not to say Kuwait is bad there’s a decent gym, a movie theater, Starbucks, Taco Bell, Burger King, a nice PX, and some other great amenities. The time difference of seven hours is something to get use to. I’m saying goodnight to Jen and she’s about to eat lunch. I find myself up until 1230 or even later sometimes. The heat really doesn’t bother me. I actually welcome the heat compared to the biter cold months back in the states.
I do have a lot of pictures from the beginning of my deployment in December and up until now. As I get more pictures I will upload them to the location below. I’m hoping that I can get back into updating my blog so just bear with me.
