Well in 25 days, anyway. 10 more at Camp Dwyer. Where the food is criminally good. I mentioned that having some fries to watch a movie with would be a treat and a ton of french fries arrived at the clinic. Seriously? I am surrendering to my inner fat contractor. I can't hep' it. There's nothing else to do here. There is a Green Beans Coffee shop, our version of Starbucks, which doesn't help 'cause I am , as we all know, a tea drinker. They offered to put me back in the VIP tent but I'll just stay in a regular guy tent. Has a better bed. I got yelled at for slamming the door. Didn't really slam it but there are water bottle counter weights that keep the door closed and I didn't pay attention and it slammed, a little. Really, only a little but I did get yelled at. THAT would never happen in the VIP tent. Man it's tough when you have to go slummin'. I am the king of emergencies. The EMS depatment was never so busy before I arrived. Which is fine with them, keeps their stats up.
There was a car bomb at KAF that blew up at the front gate. The details are online if you need details. I'm at Dwyer, what do I know? {wink}
There really is nothing to do here but eat. I guess that's why the food is so good. I have been to the CSH, the Army's version of the Role 3 (it's technically a Role 2) and they treat me like a real PA. Guess I should start thinking like one. Everyone asks what I'm going to do next. No idea. I was looking for a job when I found this one. Maybe some sailing. I have been lowered to "tier 3" on the disaster team. Which means if no one else can go then they'll send me. Not feeling the love. But when you haven't done any training or stood inspection in a year, your stock is bound to drop. I feel like I have been on a deployment for a year so going somewhere ain't gonna be a problem. Just need to polish my boots and get inspected. Ok, I'll pay someone to polish my boots ala "Officer and a Gentleman." But I will pass my inspection. If I could just remember where I put all of my stuff. A.I.A you know, a cousin to C.R.S.
