I'm Back!!

Well it has been a couple of days since I last wrote. I'm sorry about that but when I got to Iraq I lost service on the BlackBerry, which sucks. So I will be sending it home to Jane so it can be put to some good use.

I spent about three days in a cold tent and not sleeping good because of the gay cots so I caught a cold. But I'm just about over it. I have now moved into a nice warm, more permanet housing unit. let me discribe it for you. It is about the size of a large walk-in closet, 20 foot square. It has a door in the center of the front wall and a block out window in the back. Its block out in case of indirect fire they don't want glass shattering and neither do I. The walls are covered with a fake 70s style wood covering like on cheap furniture. I have a singel size bed that some how has colleted two matteresses over the years. A wall locker about the size of a coat closet and a small two drawer night stand which is my desk as of the moment. I have white lanolium flooring. and thats about it. Of course it is made for two people so there are two of each but i lucked out and have the room to myself. We will see if it stays the same.

So anyway, this morning I got picked up from my tent and driven to where I'm living. They told me to hurry and throw my bags in and they would bring me back later. Well, I didn't look at the room number and they didn't bring me back later either. So later when I was able to go back to my room I walked for over an hour, back and forth trying to remember which one out of the hundreds it was. But to on avil I succumbed to defeat and walked back to where i work. The guy there then asked someone else that is my neighbor which room it was. I was like 50 or so rooms off. It sucks. So after walking all afternoon I finally made it to my room with five blisters and tired eyes. Goodnight!
