Silk Pajamas

I just saw a man walking out of the Dining Facility wearing blue silk pajamas.....what the hell? Really?? What is this, the kinder, gentler Army? Seriously.

Yesterday I made it into work but a few hours later found myself adding a little nutrients to the desert....it consisted of scrambled eggs, honeydew melon, milk and a splash of gatorade...slightly resembled what I ate for breakfast, minus the appetizing appearance....weird. Think maybe I'll plant something there tomorrow, see if anything grows. Spent the rest of the day in bed and woke up very refreshed. Still got a little sickness in me but not nearly as bad as yesterday. I think the insurgents felt the need to 'off' me and food poisoning was their first attempt. I've got my eye out for them now.

My replacement arrived earlier this week so once again I will be without a job, mostly for the last month and a half of this deployment which means I'll be heading out on the road as often as possible to avoid being on Arifjan....just have to train him up on what I do and then hit the road! I'm heading out on a convoy here soon, I'll be back next week and then hop on another one....hopfully plan it to be a revolving door for me....fingers crossed.
