Well I made it back safely and now I'm getting settled back into 110 degree temps. I knew there was a reason why I wanted to leave this place and now it's all coming back to me!
The ship is falling apart! You would think that the ppl who now own the ship would hit a point that it just isn't worth pouring money into something that you can't maintain. Not to mention the inside of the ship get's ungodly hot!
The guys I'm berthing with are pretty cool. Much to my surprise they were very welcoming unlike most divisions when you get on the ship and tell them that you're an AG they tend to hate you lol. The two techs that came with me are finding out what it really means to be in the navy seeing as we tiger team every morning at nine am. Let's face it AG's only forecast the weather. WE don't chip paint, clean fire stations, take out the trash, until now.
One of the good things coming out of this is the fact that I'm loosing a ridiculous amount of weight, but when you're consistently up and down the stairs in a hot ass ship it's bound to happen.
I'm glad that I'm getting to see my old friends here in Bahrain! Last night I went and hung out with Eric, Hussain, and Jenni before Eric headed back to the states. It was also kind of depressing because I knew I couldn't hang out for to long because I had to be back at the ship. But yeah the ship as wifi but if everyone is on it at once it gets to be really slow.
In the long run it's cool to be back even though I don't really get to leave the ship that much and it's akward being on a floating terd.
