My day usually begins about 5:30am. I get up with the alarm (if I was actually able to sleep in) and head down to the shower. I am usually ready and on my way to the office by 6:30am. I work until about 6:30pm and will walk over to the DFAC (dining facility) if I am hungry and get something to eat. Sometimes I go to the Boardwalk and hang out with a friend. Then it's back to camp, a shower and in bed....usually by 10 or 11pm. Then things start all over again....Groundhog Day Syndrome. :-) As I learn where more places are, I will vary my routine so that it doesn't become so routine. I will go to the gym a few nights a week and then to do laundry one night a week.
Last night I was really tired. I walked to the DFAC and had dinner with my friend Pam who is leaving for FOB Geronimo tomorrow. After dinner we went to the PX and then walked back to camp. My room has been really cramped and I have been wanting to re-arrange the furniture (and trust me, there are not many ways to do that in a 10x7 room). I had gone back to my office to get my laptop and ran into my friend Edward. PERFECT - help moving the furniture! I wish we could have video taped the process. It was hysterical! We would move one thing and then not be able to move any of the other pieces. Edward finally pulled the armoire halfway out the door, I climbed over the desk and into the corner and we were finally able to shift everything around the way we wanted. Thank goodness I grabbed him or I wouldn't have been able to do it. Edward is my hero -- he's also the one that held my hand in Ft. Worth while I got all of my shots.

Anyway, I really like the new furniture arrangement. It gives me a little bit more room and I can actually use my desk and chair. Before, I couldn't pull the chair out from the desk. :-) I was showered and in bed by 9pm last night and fell right to sleep. It was good that I went to bed early because the fly boys were up and running about 3:00am. I really thought they were doing touch-and-go's off of the roof of my CHU. They must have been flying low because the whole place shook.
