Well, I finally sent my party back to the states today. My DV was General(ret) Zinni, former Commander of USCENTCOM. That is a seriously high position, and he was out here at the request of the current Commander USCENTCOM. So that'll be interesting.
I actually ended up cancelling most of his appointments for him today, at his request. I suspect feelings were hurt but he'd basically seen enough. I don't envy them the report they have to write!
Not too much else happened. They mostly stuck to the schedule, which is always good. I find myself getting irritated that my life is on hold for this job. A hard and thankless job, for which I get very little out of. I won't get promoted any faster, I don't get a better job, nothing. I told people tonight that this is how I imagine purgatory to be. Except of course it doesn't exist anymore, since the Pope can declare things not to exist, and giant rodents to be fish. But I digress.
At the end of the day, it's another day closer to the end. Good Night.
