In the middle

I'm in Kuwait. I'll be heading to Afghanistan tomorrow. It could take a couple of days to get up to my location, which is Harat (north-western Afghanistan). I was able to Skype my family today from a building that the USO maintains. We lost our connection a handful of times, but it was great to see them.

I'm so tired. On the flight to Germany I slept off-and-on for 15/20 minutes at a time. We sat on the plane for 2 hours prior to take off because there was a leak in the septic system. Once we got to Germany a friend of mine paid to use a computer at the airport and he let me send an email to Jen. The German keyboard is messed up by the way.

Tonight I'll be sleeping on a bunk bed with no linens. I brought my sleeping bag, but it's at the VERY bottom of my duffel and I don't feel like unpacking everything for one night.

I anticipate a pretty nice set up at my final destination. So what's another night of sleep off-and-on when I'm in the middle of my transition?
