I’m Back


I haven’t blogged for a long time. I don’t know why. Part of it is that I have been really busy. Also, I find life in Afghanistan the past couple of months to be like ‘Groundhog Day’ (the movie) in its monotony. Each day is the same, over and over. I live in a compound with 1,700 of my closest friends. I live in a dorm room (with a bathroom—step up!!) I go to a cafeteria for dinner. I sit in traffic. Don’t get me wrong—the job is great, but the monotony of the life here is excruciating.
Anyway…I am going to try to break out of writer’s blogger’s block and jot down some thoughts. I don’t guarantee anything profound. Hell, I don’t guarantee anything, period. But I do regret not jotting my notes on ‘life’ here, if nothing else so I could have a record of my experiences that a shrink could later unwrap.
