Welcome

To new readers and old alike: welcome to my blog! I hope that the people I care about will feel better about me being deployed to Afghanistan and stationed in Germany because they can follow me online. Feel free to contact me here if you have any questions or have a specific topic you would like me to talk about instead of my usual ramblings.


Sam Damon in Once an Eagle:

"Ah God. God, help me. Help me to be wise and full of courage and sound judgment. Harden my heart to the sights that I must see so soon again, grant me only the power to think clearly, boldly, resolutely, no matter how unnerving the peril. Let me not fail them."

Too Long without a Post

Sorry for not posting anything lately, I still don't have internet in my apartment so it is much more difficult to for me to update.  I've been doing well, but I really don't like not being able to log on at will, especially when it is so expensive to call back home on my cell phone.  I've watched a lot of movies, and taken a lot of online training, had numerous immunizations last week, and finished up my medical preparation for deployment.  Other than that, I've been pretty bored here.  I am supposed to leave at some point in the next two weeks, but I still haven't heard a firm date yet.  I'll be sure to let everyone know when I do finally head out. 

This past weekend I went to Prague.  It was awesome!  It's a beautiful city full of good times and people and food.  I had sushi, traditional Czech food, and KFC all in the same weekend, so I definitely went to different extremes as my stomach started to rumble.  I saw a lot of the city, went on two tours on Saturday and a pub crawl on Friday, although I did get lost from the pub crawl when they left one club...oh well, I still had a great night anyway.  Saturday I was up and about from around 9 am until 5 am the next morning, so I was pretty tired when I had to check out at 10 am.  There was no rest for the wicked, though, so I kept going and walked around the city for a few final hours before heading back to Sulzbach. 

I'm not sure exactly where I'll end up this weekend, but right now my plans are for Luxembourg, Brussels, and Amsterdam, but we'll see what happens.
