Getting ready to go to the sandbox.

It is Saturday night, three days till I leave. I started packing my bags today and I realized very quickly that I cannot take everything I want to. I am allowed two bags weighing 50 lbs. each. I don't think I will be able to get everything I will need for a year in two bags. Jake keeps saying I am going to Boy Scout camp for a year.

I have been told that I will have a 7' x 7' room and that it is about 150 yards from the showers and bathrooms. I can't wait. My room has a bed in it and that is all. I guess I will have to commandeer some building materials and build some furniture.

There are so many unknowns at this time. I can't wait to see this place. In case I have not said I will be at Bagram Airbase in Afghanistan.

I know I am rambling, but that is what I will be dong alot.

I am getting out of the sandbox for now (even though I am really not in it yet). I will be back soon.

  1. 7' X 7'? I think prisoners get more space than that!
