| Well i am here finally we were stuck right outside the country for several days but now we are here and we are all going separate directions most of the guys are going to the same place but myself and another spc are going to a place tht is an hour flight from our current location. but it is the company i wanted to go to so i am not going to complain at all. but so all you that are worring about me over here as i have been told i will prolly not being seeing much action because i will mostly be training the afgani army or the afgani police so it will not be a hair racing deployment. and that is about all i can say for now. banister is out(of his mind tht is) |

| i told you i would be back to answer some questions you may have from my end about wht has been going on. Lets start back in the summer sometime last year. As many of you know i signed a new contract to go active duty last may and i wasnt going to get to leave for reclass till late oct ealry nov. so over the summer i worked at a reserve unit in houston, tx. Tht was alot of fun got to know a couple of guys in my reserve unit tht i really didnt know tht well before tht whole ordeal so tht was really good and fun. But towards the end of my time there jamie and i had saved up a good deal of money and were doing pretty good on tht end but something always has to go wrong right. WELL someone decided they wanted to be me and smake a copy of my debit/credit card and use it at a club in downtown houston they stole almost three grand from us and wht sucked is the bank couldnt do anything bout it because they had my signature on the reciept which sucks cause we kinda needed tht money and it would have been really nice to have id you know wht i mean. but then i went to reclass school at Fort Benning in georgia oh so much fun. I was told tht i would be put into just the last training part of the school but i got there and guess wht the army did. They sent me back to week four of basic training with all the young bucks tht have no clue as to wht is going on. While there i got treated as if i had no clue wht the army was about even though i had deployed already and have been in for four years. go figure right. Well tht was from nov till end of jan and early feb. granted i did get to go home for couple weeks for christmas it sucked balls. All the while i was waiting to get orders to my new duty station wherever tht should be. About three days prior to graduation i finally got orders bringing me to the great state of new york. It is freaking cold as hell up here by the way. but anyhow upon getting here i have now been told tht the unit tht i am in is already in Afgan. and tht i will be sent over to join them probably before April. But on a good note we have "OUR" own house here on post and i am going to pick jamie up next week and bring here and our daughter Charlotte up here so tht we can spend some time together before i leave once again from home. It sux tht i will be gone but at least i know my family is taken care of and i have a job tht i will not loss unless i do something stupid which i will not do. banister is out(of his mind tht is) |

| well i am back and maybe i will stay informed on this website but there is no telling i have only got a couple minutes here so i will just say tht it is freaking cold at fort drum and there is snow everywhere. as i am sure most of you know from jamie we will be moving next week from houston tx ti fort drum new york and we will be driving a moving van so for those who are curious it is anywhere from 1700 to 1800 miles from one point to the other which is a very long way wish us luck. banister is out(of his mind tht is) P.S. more to come later about my adventures |

| Well i know you have probably read Jamie's xanga post and saw that she didn't have a very good time at party but for me it was good and for the little charlotte is was good to. There were just some issues with guest not being there that said there were going to be and Jamie really got upset about it and i didnt help matters either. (I am sorry babygirl) But really all in all is was a good party Charlotte got to run around and play. banister is out(of his mind that is)
edit: Well today started off really good went to work this morning did some things(if I told you what they were I would have to kill you) but all in all a good morning then came lunch. We went to Taco Bell to grab a bit but when we got there and were about to enter the building the lights in the place went out so we couldn't eat there. Well we figured what the hey lets do Subway. We went there got our food, ate it and returned back to work. Well yall let me tell you it will be a long time before I touch a Chicken & Bacon Ranch sub from there cause it just tore my stomach all to to hell. All afternoon it was killing me. Well we were getting ready to leave and the guys were talking about going and grabbing a bit at this place we like to eat and i told them that i would probably not get anything cause of my stomach. Well anyway we are driving along and all of a sudden my stomach erupted yall. you have no idea. It went all over the back of SFC Spooner's truck. He was pissed off let me tell yeah. We got back to hotel and he just handed me the keys and said it had better get cleaned. It was my mess had no problem with that. I spent proably two hours cleaning this thing it sucked but it was my mess. Needless to say i will never live this down. Banister is out(of his mind that is)
