YAAAAAAAAAAWN. Boy that was a good nap. Nothin like taking an hour long shower (got sand in places I didn't even know I HAD) then sleeping your lag away in your rack all by yourself.

So yes, I''ve finally returned from my first official Navy mission thing. Like Sats already said, our tenure was cut short because the DivO said something rather rash to the commanding officer about us being "greener then an Irish girl's <censored>" (the DivO is Irish, BTW). So we're guessing one thing led to another and he finally decided to cancel our orders, but by then we were already in Kuwait, so they just changed them to a UI (under instruction) assignment with EOD Squad 4. Kinda dissappointing, but we did get to take a few mines apart.

And no, Greg, no n00bz were camping the bomb, lol. The Marines made damn sure of that.

Iraq was sooooooo hot. I mean like REALLY hot. No, hotter then that. Like 115 degrees in the shade hot. My fuggin' canteen melted shut one day, and I had to poke a hole in the side with my knife to get to the almost boiling water inside. We were frying eggs without fire it was so hot. It's so hot in Iraq that the Devil gets there and goes "Damn... it's hot here." Needless to say, in our off time we spent a lot of time in our undies, and nobody, including me the only female, cared one bit.

So yeah, that's about all I can say about Iraq. The people were nice enough, they even brought us food and drinks when we came to town, but the place still sucks the big one.... I never want to go back. At least I made ph4t c4sh for the month I was there (Tax-free zone ^__^). So I'm gunna take my money and go buy an Xbox and some games so I can forget about the horror that is the Iraqi sun.

By the way, Sats gave me my Star Wars: Galaxies character back, so anyone who wants to play with me just speak up! laterz!

It says something about your popularity when you can leave for halfway across the world and come back and your thread is still on the first page.
