New Adventures
Well I've made it to Kuwait. Perhaps for good, perhaps not. One thing is for sure, I am learning how to pack my things up and go as fast as I need to. Looks like I may be going back to Iraq sooner than I thought. I hope so, it's a little too nice here. I know a lot of you are happy that I'm here and safer, but I'm just not. You know I joined the Army to fight for my country and to defend our way of life, not to sit in some plush office in Kuwait. I'd rather sit in a plush office in Balad (hehe). Anyway, at least for the time being I will be here. I should know within a week or so if I'll be staying or not. Hopefully its a not, but whatever. I'm learning to take what comes and to deal with it. Its really come down to this for me: I don't care what I have to do, where I have to do it, and who I have to do it for, as long as I have a place to rest my head at night alone. You that know me, know that I'm a big fan of personal space, so as long as I have that I'll be a happy person. Anyway...
I'll try to take some pictures of what its like here in Kuwait. I'm living in a trailer like thing that I'm sharing with a Captain, she seems nice. We have a TV and DVD player in there; told you it was nice. I also have a nice wall locker. Overall, I can deal with it out here, it's just more not being with my unit. Anyway, enough complaining from Kate. Miss you guys!

What is this BS? You want to fight for your country!? That's ridiculous! "Pioneers of a warless world are young men (and women) that refuse military service." Albert Einstein said that. Oh yeah, and where are you for at least a year? I know that sucks! Hey Kate, it's Nolan. I'm just messing with you. I think your courage and dedication are extremely admirable and I wish I had the same. You're great and I thank you for all that you do. Plus, I like your name. Hope you get back to Iraq soon.
