Sad Day...
Today was an especially sad day for me. Every evening after chow, I make a nice fresh pot of coffee with my 1-liter French Press coffee pot. After I share and finish my coffee, I head to the kitchen to clean out, wash and rinse my press for the next day. Well, I had just finished rinsing the pot and I sat it down and it tipped over and the GLASS BROKE! ARHGGG...Oh whoa is me...boo hoo!! Never fear, my blog-reading friends, my super-wife with her shopping super-powers has already sprung into quick action and hopefully by this time next week, I'll be enjoying some fine blends of freshly ground HIGH quality magic brown elixir..er, COFFEE again. Yes, I am addicted to GOOD coffee. Until then, I am remanded to drink the Army sludge they call coffee.
As you enjoy your memorial day weekend, please keep all the folks in Iraq in your prayers. Especially these guys in the picture. They go out EVERY DAY and clear roads of road-side bombs. I ran into one of the drivers one day at the MWR and he told me had been blown up twice in one day. He seemed to think nothing of it other than that was his job and he knows his job saves lives.
All my LOVE to K, J & C!! I hope you enjoy the NEW iPod Nanos!!
