There is no such thing as bad luck right? Well I have been hit by more IEDS and had more break downs and just overall bad luck than most in the company so much that people are starting to say that I'm bad luck. These guys have even given me the nickname "routes red". I don't know if I should be honored or just keep laughing at it. I mean it's my job to work in danger so I don't consider it bad luck I think it's all just part of the job but, these guys keep telling me I'm bad luck. Bad luck is a little more like pissing on your pants in the mens room on a date with Miss America, or sneezing and snot flies all over some female you are trying to hit on in a bar now that is bad luck. This, this is just part of the job and I think that's why I'm ok with it. Ok enough of the bad luck stuff before I jinx myself. My wife just sent me the video to the ultra sound! wow these things are high speed now I mean I could see her face and everything it was pretty neat. I am pretty excited about being a new daddy all over again. It has been some time since I raised a baby. My wife says she is so ready to have the baby, I feel pretty bad that I am not there with her but she is strong. Oh oh oh I almost forgot! So check it out I was walking to the PX the other day and guess who I run into? My recruits! I enlisted a bunch of the guys that are going home and are passing through, it was a trip because they were excited to see me and I was pretty stoked to see them too. It's not everyday you run into your recruiter in a combat zone. I'm surprised they weren't pissed at me for getting them in the Army.

LMAO...sneezing snot on a girl? OH GROSS!!! Congratulations on the baby! If she looks like her mommy, you better make sure you come back with a few choice souveniers from over there. You'll be needing them in about 12-14 years!
Be safe
