Jan 8 2012 Afghanistan

Well I started a blog. This is something I've never done before but many people have suggested I write down my "adventures" from Afghanistan. I've been here a month and nothing, so here I am. I guess this really for myself and my family to be honest. Just so I can remember and they can know what is happening. I won't be putting in anything that I can't tell (I'll tell those stories to you all later). I hope to write every few days just for updates.
Today was a good day. I went to work like normal (well a little late because it's Sunday). We weren't very busy today which is good. I went to a chow hall that I don't usually get to go to which was good because it changed the scenery and it is better. I went with some friends; Chris, Howard, Henry, and Paul. We drove down the dust road and had some good chow (for us anyway). We went back to work but it still wasn't very busy. Chris and I looked through some paperwork then I called it a day about 1700hrs. Chris went back and I came to my room and watched Wedding Crashers. I think that is one of the funniest movies ever.
I really miss the family. Nicole is getting ready to buy us a house. I know that will be a lot on her but she can handle it. We are very excited about it. We so want to have a house for our boys to grow up in. I'm glad it will be a reality. Roll Tide Roll!
