SILENCE
I hate the silence, and I am sure that everyone else does too. Nothing worse to me than to not hear from my soldier. You would have to know this Haji internet service that he has to understand. If it is working, it is working, but if its's not working right, then it just logs on and off continuously. So when it is dead silent, you know that something has happened for it to be shut off completely.
So at 0200 this morning when I heard that door slam on the instant messenger, I got all excited and was ready and eager to type away. We were able to chat for about an hour until it was time for them to go to the chow hall.
The power was off again today in their cans. So Michael was back at his work tent trying to get some more of his online course out of the way, then off to watch the NASCAR race they went. Honestly, I don't know when they ever get any sleep in the sand, and when they do, it is not for long.
P.S. You guys are showing those muscles way too much.

Stacy,
Yeah I understand, but that stuff is so unreliable(Internet, Phones)
It's great, but it always goes out when you really want it!
Have a good day!
Erik
still haven't heard from any of "my guys" since friday... yup... the silence is deafening... hate it.
glad you got to IM with michael... some day you should tell us what yoy two chat about... same stuff mine do?
Glad you and Michael got to talk. The sound of silence SUCKS. Sending you lots of hugs for a good start to your week!!
Glad you got to communicate with Michael.
I wondered when they slept also.
Dan called me today and said the phone he was on had a cut phone line. He was holding it together with his fingers. It had a good connection when the lines were together. But then he would move his fingers and it would static.
I am like you I'll take anything.
If he is trying to get in touch with me I know he is okay.
Stay safe Michael and all of you muscle guys. One of these days you have got to show the rest of us those muscles.
I am so glad you heard from him. I can not imagine how hard it is not to hear from him.
I hate the silence too... I'm so glad you're still posting. I will definitely stop by and visit more often. Bless you!
We went through the same vacuum. It sucks. But we got a phone call this morning to settle the dust again.
