Boredom has seriously set in. You would think that with everything going on in this neck of the woods there would be something to do. Part of me is happy nothing is really going on, the other half is so damn stir crazy it doesn't know what to do. Read 5 books in the past week, so now i'm bored again. I have made friends with the local frog community at a small ditch that runs through the base here. They seem to be happy, lots of bugs to eat I guess. Other than that there just really isn't much going on. I keep catching myself making plans for when I get back to the states and get out, then I realize I still have over a year and a half once I return, and possible another float to go on. 3 Floats in one enlistment is gonna fucking suck. All I want to do is get back and move forward with my life. I think I've earned that much. So this shit is really dragging now that I can't really even look forward to far. Don't get me wrong, I can't wait to get home and see my Angel and Princess Creepy. It just sucks knowing that it is still going to be a long time before I can really begin to get my life back on track. Rather frustrating. On a lighter note, we have discovered that if you set coke cans out in the dessert sun for about an hour, then throw them they tend to explode like a Soda-grenade. So we've been ambushing passer-bys. There is this huge myster around the camp right now as to who the Coke-can bandits are! MUAHAHAHAH!! You'll never catch me Copper!!
