I suppose I'll make my first "in theater" entry now.... Getting here was not the worst moving experience but darn close to it. 2nd only to getting to Iraq. But its not over, we still have a month or so left here at Kandahar till we go down to Camp Bastion... So many things here are too familiar. The sky, the smell, the sounds, and the inconveniences. But for now my attitude remains positive, its most likely going to change so I'll make record of it now to prove I once wanted to be here. For now I'm looking forward to getting my car paid off and getting my tests done for picking up Sgt. Hopefully I'll have time for that this weekend. Heh...I write weekend like they exist for me anymore. lol.... But I remember what got to me last deployment. The little things. Like bloody noses, not having a bathroom attached to my living quarters, and fast internet. But its all that and some more this time around, and by more i mean big problems. We got rocketed or IDF'd last night. So that means at any given time I could just be vaporized by a rocket. Comforting to know. I'll leave it at that for tonight.
