Never take me to Vegas

I’m still at a camp in Kuwait awaiting a flight back home. I’m on standby for the daily flights going back, and if I'm lucky I could fly back tomorrow, or there is one in several days that I’m sure to get on. I’ll plan on being home in about a week. While it has never been great, the Texas Hold ‘Em tournament at the MWR last nigh proved that I am not a lucky person. Fortunately the game was free.

I’ve spent the last two days sleeping as much as possible and when not doing that I’ve been reading and watching movies. The library is well stocked, but I don’t want to get tired of reading before I spend 24 hours on a plane with nothing to do but read and sleep. I only have a few movies, and I’m very picky about such things. The food here is decent, but it’s the same thing I’ve been eating for the last 13 months, so I skip meals to enjoy it better.
