This Place is Boring

Yep, that pretty much sums up Afghanistan. At least as far as I'm concerned. I know that there are other Soldiers in this place that would readily disagree with me. That's ok, I can only judge this place by my own experiances. Here's a run down of how I go through the typical day here.

1500: Wake up and put on PT uniform for the 1/4 mile walk to the shower.
1520: Pray taht I can at least find a shower with warm water.
1600: Put on ACUs and play on the comp for a little bit.
1700: Go to chow.
1720: Head out to the hanger.
1740: Get the change over brief.
1800: Conduct the PC meeting.
0015: Go back to chow.
0600: Give change over brief to day shift.
0700: Eat chow.
0730: Usually back to bed to start all over again when I wake up.

Seems like a fun and exciting life, does it not? This place obviously isn't anything like Korea. (I loved that place.) Its not like you can go downtown to see the sites, or even get a drink when you want to. There isn't really anything to do on your off time. Well, at least mine, since I'm a night shift person. There is a bazarre tht they have weekly here, but it starts a few hours after I rack out, and ends just as I wake up. Oh well. Though I do plan on hitting it before I go on mid-tour. That's about all from this dust bowl.

See ya'll later.

Be happy they do not do air raid drills and the AF forces you to join in on the fun when it is cold and you are asleep. Enjoy the boredom retiree!!!!!
