So, it's Friday, and I'm supposed to be off today, but I had to attend a big mass out-processing briefing this morning, so I figured I'd just hang around the shop for a while and get some e-mailing done and stuff. They really shouldn't have had us out-process four days before we leave, because now we'll be totally useless and the next team won't be here for two more days.
I finished "Mere Christianity" and have now started on "Porno" by Irvine Welsh, which is kind of a follow up to "Trainspotting." However, since I've started running again, my reading has suffered a little. I guess it's because I'm getting up so much earlier, and I'm much more tired at the end of the day.
The big question everyone keeps asking everyone else is, "What's the first thing you're going to do when you get home?" Well, we're supposed to be getting home on Saturday, July 3rd, so after we get our luggage and turn in our weapons and stuff, I'll probably head to my house (which will most likely be filled with people) and unpack and socialize. Saturday night will be Bible Study, followed by more socializing at Paddy's. Of course, anything could happen. This is just one potential course of events. All I really want is just to see everyone and talk and laugh.
I got my hair cut the other day, and it's really short. Apparently, "trim up the top" in TCN-speak translates to "I wish to look like Sinead O'Connor." Oh, well. It's a good summer hair cut, I guess.
I'm heading out to the ziggurat tomorrow, which should be really fascinating. I'll be sure and take lots of pictures. I hear the tour guide is very knowledgeable about the history of this area. I hope I can remember everything.
Anyway, I'm going to grab some lunch and head back to my tent for some afternoon relaxation. Take care. No worries. God Bless.
