28 Jun 2007 - ASSAMO!



I haven't been writing much because there hasn't been alot to say. I found out this week that I'll be going downrange to Assamo Djibouti! WOOHOO! Per Diem! I've spent too much money, hopefully I can stop and save a bit of it.
Helo flights can get old fast. Hot, dirty, windy, and loud. Being in charge of sat phones is keeping me very busy though. OH! the band Lit came and played a concert at the cantina last night. They were really good and left me in a good mood.
90 some odd days left, it will be over before I know it. I'm tired but I can't sleep. Aimee has been writing me, but honestly, she is the last thing I need right now. She has a way of making me miss her even though I know we aren't a good match. I think I'll avoid it all together.
I'm sick of working every day already, but if I wasn't working everyday I don't know what else I would do to pass the time. My TV back home still isn't fixed - what the FUCK is taking Samsung so long? I'm rambling and running out of paper so I'm going to hit the sack. I've been feeling pretty lonely lately - Most of the guys I work with are lame, and the one guy I get along with really good, Piper, is down range.

P.S. New castle is pretty good, everything else is skunk here.
