Gah. I'm sitting out here in a soft-skinned Humvee pulling ammo guard. Been here since 0300, and it's below freezing... at least the heater works in this metal and canvas shit pile.
To keep my mind busy, I've been sitting here reading all the texts and Facebook messages between my girlfriend and me while gnawing my way through a can of Copenhagen. My cold symptoms have reached critical mass- between a pounding headache, running nose and sneezing/coughing up a storm, I'm feeling pretty sorry for myself.
On the plus side, I'm off in two hours and don't have to work until Tuesday. Also, there are only ten days between me and a long weekend in NY with my Stephanie, which is awesome. She gets to meet The Mother then, as we'll be staying at her house... I'm excited.
Meantime... you sane people sleep, and I'll be here, doing Great Things for my country. H fucking minus.
