My brother is in Iraq as one of the independent contractors (formerly a soldier) who are working at rebuilding the infrastructure while stabilizing the region. Here is a photo from one of his trips off the base. This is the Ziggurat at Ur, one of the few remaining Mesopatamian structures in the region. You may remember Ur from the story of Abraham in the bible.
Possibly one of those big, life altering events coming. Will post more when I know more.
UPDATED: Looks like I'm going to be just fine. Just something minor. PHEW!
I totally forgot I'd requested today off 6 months ago so it was a surprise to have it pop up on my Outlook calendar. So, here I sit not knowing exactly WHAT to do. Everyone is working today except me. I'm glad I'm not outside though. Today is one of those fun Central Valley days where the temperature is 100+ and the air is unhealthy.
You must think I'm a fool
So prosaic and awkward and all
D'you think you've got me down?
D'you think I've never been out of this town?Do I seem too eager to please to you now?
You don't know me at all
I can't turn it on, turn it off like you now
I'm not like you nowNow you're here
I bet you're wishing you could disappear
I'm trying to be kind
I get the feeling you're just killing timeYou look down on me
Don't you look down on me now
You don't know me at all
A slap in the face
In the face for you now
Just might do nowYou're leaving so soon
Never had a chance to bloom
But you were so quick
To change your tune
Don't look back
If I'm a weight around your neck
Cos if you don't need me
I don't need you

I never really wanted you to see
The screwed up side of me that I keep
Locked inside of me so deep
It always seems to get to me
I never really wanted you to go
So many things you should have known
I guess for me theres just no hope
I never meant to be so cold
What I really meant to say
Is I'm sorry for the way I am
I never meant to be so cold
