I’m still here – 2009.1.2 (local)

Most of our group left today, but then most were going to Iraq and Afghanistan.  A few are still here.  Some just have delayed travel, others have issues with where they are traveling to; I have an accounting problem.  So because they can’t figure out where the money is coming from exactly for me to be here, they need to keep me here doing nothing and then find the money to pay for it.  On Monday, if there is no flight, I will probably just report to the OSJA on post and ask to start taking legal assistance cases until they can figure out which checkbook to write the check for my flight out of.

I considered renting a car and driving to Atlanta to visit my cousin Teresa tomorrow,  we had tentatively scheduled for around 11:30 but then a friend offered his car for free but not until noon, I couldn’t really justify renting a car for the day then but that put me too late to meet up with Teresa, so we canceled.  Somehow the decision matrix there didn’t work out quite right.  Maybe I need to apply MDMP.  Come to think of it, I need to complete a class online on that topic.  Somehow I don’t think that would’ve helped.

BTW, my posts may indicate being written a day after they were as I have my time zone set to GMT.  Local time is too much trouble to change and Central European Time would be misleading for the present.   (On the other hand, sometimes I just write the post the next day).

  1. Sounds like you’re getting the typical Army runaround. Nice job there, man!

    Glad you’re safe on the ground, but hoping your stuff gets cleaned up and you get to kick some law butt in DE.
