Day 153

Today was also a pretty good day. I went to work as normal, did work
as normal. There are a couple trips happening at once, and I have my
hands in a few of them for various details. Hopefully they all work
out according to plan. I did get to go to a meeting at the Embassy
today, as the official JVB rep. That was kind of cool. I think I
answered the questions correctly, so that was good. Normally it's our
O-6 that goes, so it was a good responsibility for me.

I went to lunch with Rob, and met up with Gibb Gary there. We're all
pilots, so that's cool. I asked Gibb if he'd fly me and Emili down to
St. Lucia for our vacation, and he said maybe. And he was being
completely serious! I don't believe we can get our money back from
United, but it's a nice offer! It's fun to have friends in
interesting places.

Tonight, the JVB fielded a team in the quarterly ISAF HQ dodgeball
tournament. We came in 6th place. I'm not saying there were only 6
teams, but we got 6th, if you know what I mean. I seem to remember
being much better at this game when I was in elementary school. But
after we were eliminated, we went to the Tora Bora to have dinner. We
were in our PT clothing, so we couldn't go to the normal dining
facility. So I bought a ham and cheese sandwich, which was ok. I'm
not exactly sure the currency conversion was on the level, but we
needed to eat. But it was nice to socialize and relax a little bit.
We then went back to the office for a half hour's work, and then I
came back to the room.

Not too much else going on here. I think they're going to fix the
wood paneling in our rooms on Monday. But other than that, things
here are calm. I will write more tomorrow. Good night.
