Rem day

Well, Nov.11 is here and we get a well deserved day for relaxation and just chillin' out. \did my laundry, had a shower, and now we're gonna do some drills on the .50cal. A tanker this morning decided to pull the trigger to "see what would happen." Well, needless to say, he had a negligent discharge of about 3 rounds. Now, thats 2 days they've been here and 2 negligent discharges. I think I said to Chandra before I left, I'm not worried about getting shot by the Taliban, I am however concerned about getting shot by a tanker. I think I'll start wearing my helmet and frag vest around..haha...Anyway, last night on OP shift, Dorners feet were freezing, so he decided to warm them up on a ammo can filled with charcoal and lighter fluid. His feet sure warmed up... he melted the glue from the soles of his boots, and he doesn't have another pair.....He ends up using a sealant to glue them back together and gun tape to clamp it..... Hopefully it works out for him... We had some victory cigars today being Rememberance Day and all.... The humidor is working pretty well and the boys all enjoyed a good smoke... Except Dorner... I reckon its the first thing he ever smoked cause he was layed out for awhile after smoking it...

Speaking of smoking.. I divulged my little secret today to Chandra. Yes, I am smoking again.... but I promised I'd quit when I return to Canada and its a promise I intend to keep..... Got to speak to the little lady today... Of course the phone keeps cutting out.... Told Blencowe about the pillow your'e sending for him.... HE was pretty excited about the thought of actually resting his head on something other than mousetraps, cords, combat shirts, and garbage he keeps in his bug net...

We've got some pretty hard charging shit coming up... can't really say what it is we're gonna do, but I can say I may not be able to update this as often as I have been......If I don't get a phone by the 17th, I wanna wish Angie a Happy Birthday.....

Oh, and I may have a nasty upper lip tan line come Feb. when we go on HLTA.... Yes, we are growing the dirty combat moustaches......Ok well, gotta run... apparently they're running everyone through the .50 cal now...hahah..... better late than never....peace...out
