I think it's time for another post. I'm ready to run fom this place. I just don't want to run to where I'm going. Imagine that where I am is a kick in the balls, with lots of extra pay and no expenses. Now imagine that where I'm going is a kick in the balls, with freedom. It's still a kick in the balls, no matter how you slice it. Personally, I like the no pay thing.
Meanwhile, in my desire to run like all hell, I'm preparing to burn my bridges. The only problem is that I am currently standing on them. Like today, I was ready to set fire and go, only to realize that the bridge was basically not completed on the other end. Meanwhile, I don't seem to have any options for getting out of the country. I keep getting this finger that points me in one direction, only to have the peole there point me back to where I started.
Fortunately, I'm heading to Kandahar in the morning. First time I've been to a big base since early September. How wonderful. A little face to face is usually good for clearing up questions. Plus, I can mail more stuff home. There's not much left, now.
I actually dread a few things about going home. First off, I didn't cover anything in my apartment, so I'm going to be dusting for days. Second, I need to get reacquainted with driving amongst Italians. Damn, they're bad. Finally, I can't wait to see what BS job I will have.
Black 6, out.

Hey, remember have fun? How about getting those new running shoes? I hate dust too. I have found the electro-lite filter for the a/c does wonders. I have dusted just once in a month and everything would still be dust free. Take care, sharon
You'll be aiight!
I read that book!
Come to Bragg.
interesting talk about burning bridges, i like the analogy... so you prefer it over the alternative but you want to make sure you can't be sent back once you do get out?
