I'm living. We just lost a guy to a rocket attack and I knew him fairly well. He was a good guy to everyone around here, so we are all pretty broken up about the whole thing. Other than that, I'm waiting to get on my plane to go on vacation.

Its all bullshit because in a week, I'll be in Europe, and in 60 days, I'll be home in the states. After...

2. "Such a pretty house and such a pretty garden,...

Currently, I'm sitting in my bed, in Afghanistan, on a remote Forward Operating Base (FOB). I've...
