Death by Classroom Briefs….

23JAN07 Tuesday. Again, survived a death by Briefing at the DIA Operations Center. For the most part, the DIA OPS Center is not located near any convenient restaurants. Fortunately, my shipmate and I are packing our lunch-in. Saving a few bucks and able to actually relax a little over lunch. Still, class is long, involved, and….boring (er, I mean essential). Got out a little after 4:00PM, zipped home, changed into civilian attire (civvies). Off for a Soup and Salad. Currently watching Senifield. Still funny to this day. We have on vehicle for 3 people. Obviously, all are considerate to a fault. Still, me as a Florida Boy on Ice is not a good mix. Regarding the Orders “Issue”. Called several folks today. As it currently stands, unless otherwise directed, will depart for Afghanistan on 30JAN07. Will certainly update accordingly. Doug
