Clean My Wounds

Okay, the title may get people worrying, but it's just the title of a song I'm listening to right now... I really enjoy the song.

Anyways... 46 Days!!! (okay, here in about 30 minutes it'll be 45 days) till I get to see Sarah. We're both very ecstatic about it and can't wait!

Work's been fairly busy here recently. I just had a trip up to Bagram for a class and a few other things, it was uneventful and the instructor told me and Jason that we could leave if we wanted (....we were far more advanced than the other students in the class) but we didn't have anything else to do so we just hung out anyways. So, yet another class and certification under my belt. Yay. Now all I have to do is convert that into a pay raise.... i've gotta work on that.

I've finally got my Vonage phone working here in my room, it's nice to actually be able to call Sarah without having to go all the way into work (yeah, she's worth me walking into work just to talk to her). Plus it helps because sometimes you can't have certain conversations on topics at work (gotta be professional) and it makes it easier because we're more free to talk to one another now. Only thing is (baby, take note of this), is being called at 1AM. I personally have no problem with it... The roomies on the other hand, yeah....

But speaking of roomies... We're currently down one. I've still got my name in on the list to move up to the compound though... And speaking of which, there's supposed to be some construction going on, we're going to be moved out of tents and actually into a hard structure, which will be nice..... individual private rooms, a wash room w/ machines, restroom and shower facilities, and even a small conference room....

Now the only thing I worry bout is that since the base is moving more and more to NATO and we support fewer US folks, if they won't get this building put together then we get kicked out of the area.... So we'll have to wait and see how that goes.

Beyond that, not much else is going on besides me counting down the days till July. :)


And it's getting late so I'll sign off for now....
