Back On

Now I know how Radar O'Reily felt. Sometimes you pack everything you think that you need, but don't realize what you need until you get there. So you scrounge what you need and barter with people for things that they want, and you need. It works, I guess it is a throwback to the older days when trading a chicken for nails was still "normal." I am finally adjusting to the time difference. My bladder still thinks that 0330 here is morning, but other than that my mind is slowly getting sharper. At least that what the Nintendo DS game Brain Age is thinking. I still meet lots of interesting people, both military and civillian. All have very different reasons for being here, some for service, some for honor, some for self-sacrifice and some just for material gain. It is nice being able to blog again, unfortunately the military internet does not allow access to blogging sites, it is pretty restrictive, but that is understandable, we've got a war to win, not a blog to write.
