I got to Kuwait last week. Either I misunderstood or I got some bad info, but I'm not going to Camp Victory North after all; the team is at Victory South, which is here in Kuwait. I'm actually typing this from the palatial MWR tent here at Victory South, which I would abbreviate V.S. if not for the unfortunate and entirely inappropriate confusion with Victoria's Secret.
It's a little desolate here, but I have about 25 times more space in my tent than I did in the barracks at Arifjan, and there are only two people in there with me, as opposed to the 30-odd at Arifjan. I just need to accumulate some furniture for storage, because the only thing I have in there is a bed. Well, there's some extra stuff they had, but still... no shelves, nowhere to hang anything.
The work is going to be tedious, and I think it'll come in spurts. I'm working with nice folks, though, so I think it's going to be a good thing. It's quieter here than Arifjan, and less crowded. This is definitely a good thing. I like people, but only in small doses.

Glad you made it to your destination. Praying you stay well and safe during your deployment. Thanks again for serving our country.

Silly girl. That was too easy. Camp Victory South = C.V.S. So you're living at CVS. (grin)
Drink water. Keep your butt down.

Wow. You crapped out on us and ended up sitting your lazy butt in kuwait. Hope your happy...Why you would even write about what you have done should be pathetic in your own eyes. Maybe more pt and less typing would have helped you from cracking during lanes........
