I ran into a friend I haven't seen in about a year (last time was in Kuwait on my way to START this deployment), and I congratulated her on her happy "coupledom". I mean, why do we always wait until someone gets engaged or married to give congrats? Shouldn't we be happy when our friends are happy... regardless of whether or not there's "a ring on it"? I guess I should be congratulating more of my friends on their happy "singledom" too then...?
In other news, I had a Soldier cause a minor hulabaloo today. Basically, while we are on a new camp, he goes somewhere without anyone seeing him leave the group. He was found HOURS later at some random spot miles away (dumb HUGE camps). Apparently we were chasing a moving target the whole time since he said he was around camp looking for us. Thank God this all happened inside the wire... This ordeal and other minor instances put quite the damper on my day, so I'm drowning my sorrows in shredded mini-wheats cereal, a few Girl Scout cookies, and blogging- which is only slightly pathetic I think.
