Day 203

Today I woke up in the DVQs, which wasn't too bad, but I had to get up
early to let some advance agents into their rooms. But I went into
work early and sort of just visited with the other people who also
came into work early. Not too much going on.

I think things went pretty normally today. Just minor tweaks and
things for the upcoming visit. I think everything will go fine, but
there are lots of concerned people. I am going to the Palace
tomorrow, so that's kind of neat. My first mission and my last will
take me to the Palace for the big guy.

I also got a package from Cheryl today. Thank you so much for all the
cat food! I've never seen so much in one place before! The cats will
feast on the good food and treats. The cats of ISAF thank you!

Rob Bowlus and I walked to Eggers tonight because I thought they'd
have the banana fosters french toast, but noooo. Apparently we eat
Thanksgiving dinner on Easter, and not french toast. Haven't they
heard of the parable of Jesus and the french toast? I believe he took
a loaf of french toast, and divided it endlessly among his french
toast loving followers. I guess the Pashtu translation of the Bible
leaves some things out.

But then we watched We Were Soldiers. It was a pretty well done
movie, and it made me pretty upset. It reminded of my days of being a
Casualty Assistance and Call Officer at USNA. Very sad, and I hope no
one ever receives a telegram on my behalf. Well, I think it's bed
time. Good night.
