Yes... I'm doing fine. Work has just been super busy and I haven't felt like updating this. (Still don't, really.)
Back to running....had to quit rugby due to too many twisted ankles (not that I have more than the usual amount of ankles, but that the pot-holes on the helo pad were dangerous). We run around Lost Lake, which is about a 2 mile loop, and then sometimes add in another loop around the trailer park. It's getting fun (can't believe I just said that). The hard part is waking up at 1700 (that's like 5am for day-shifters). It's definitely interesting though... we run just as the sun is setting, and the Mosques begin calling out prayers for the end of the day (and the start of the Ramadan feasting). It reminds me of the end of "Blackhawk Down" when the guys are running while they're being shot at, and there's Islamic music in the background. (At least, that's how I remember it.) It's very surreal, and sometimes eerie. Especially like tonight, when we could hear shooting just outside the wall (we decided it was US doing the shooting, not THEM). Anyhow, it's a good run. :-)
Gotta get back to work!
