She's baaacccckkkk!!!

Yup, I am back in the land of computer connection. I'm sitting in tent city in good old Kuwait waiting for an airplane to give us a ride into Iraq. I will never be able to comprehend the stupidity that is the military deployment travel system. I'm amazed that anyone every gets into Iraq at all!
Tonight was a little morale night... Outback Steakhouse, Carrabas, and a band called "A Verse Unsung" all flew in so we could have dinner and a show. How freaking cool is that. The food was delicious but I was really amazed by the band. It was a group of young kids from Minnesota who flew all the way out here. I was so impressed with them. I guess it just seems that so many people and celebs flaunt this "support the troops" attitude but some of them actually mean it. For a band that isn't well known to want to come out here really freaking rocks. A Verse Unsung rocks! :)

Otherwise everything is just lovely... the sand is pleasant and the wind can't be beat. Hopefully we'll be out of here soon and I can hurry up and settle down. Ooooooh, I take that back... just got the word that we are out like trout in the morning....wooooohoooooo!!!! It's on like donkey kong... no more Kuwait for me!!!!
