not much going on here.

just got home a while ago from work. I'm on call this weekend, so I get called out at all hours to go and fix things.


just watched Exiled earlier. great movie. It's a very Western type story but as a Hong Kong bullet ballet gangster flick.



haven't had too much chance to play with the new camera this last week. need to get out and do some more photos.

pb:
if you feel like coming back to Baghdad as a contractor, let me know. your military exp coupled with your HVAC knowledge would be perfect as a deployed HVAC tech. HVAC is a big business here and there's always guys fixing those things. you should see the HVAC we have running into the Perfume Palace...units as big as houses. Camp Slayer isn't so bad...we have (polluted) lakes, palm trees and lots of random buildings we've taken over for work, etc. i actually live in a "hard stand" building rather than one of the trailers the rest of the civs live in. as a rule, i work 6/12s and a little more sometimes. you'd probably be on 7/12s.

i'm a Guardsman and did all my drills up front for FY '08 before leaving. you could maybe do the same.

that is, if you WANT to be in a place with very little to do besides work and workout and sleep. i guess you know the drill, tho.

there's always the vacations, too. i plan on doing 4 while i'm here, of which Rome is the first. i looked into Romania a bit. wanted to go see Vlad's castle, Merry Cemetery, etc. mayhaps that'll be trip number three.
