I've been sitting here just staring at the wall for quite a while now, I didn't realize it was almost 5:30am. I can't wait to go to sleep this morning. I've been sleeping pretty well lately, but I find that is the only time I get to be alone anymore.
More rumors are circulating about when we're going to be going home. I learned a long time ago not to listen to, or at least not to get my hopes up, about these "rumors" because the dates will invariably get pushed back because something new will spring up, as ALWAYS happens. I still remember the days when we were supposed to be home in August. I could have caught some of the monsoon season in AZ, which from what I heard was pretty good this year.
I'm not really looking forward to moving back into the barracks either. You can be damned sure that if someone comes pounding on my door after work is over with for the day, I will NOT be answering it. If they think it is that important for me to pick up after some other grown adult, they can call my cell phone (which will remain an Illinois number, so I hope they don't mind the long distance charges, and getting my voicemail.)
Oh well, such is life...
