Big Boom

Daniel says:
well I wonder when you are going to get up today
Diane says:
Good morning
I am up, but I have kitties to take care of. It takes about 1/2 an hour
Daniel says:
just so you know, my vehicle hit an IED last night.
Diane says:
OMG
Obviously you're alive and kicking
Daniel says:
yeah, it was a small one, and it exploded a bit early, so it just took some armor off the vehicle
Diane says:
Did everyone do laundry or do the brown trousers hide in the camo?
Daniel says:
lol
I actually need to turn mine in [to be laundered], we have been...very....busy recently
Diane says:
Oh. You don't have to do it yourself?
Diane says:
It's like living at home only with live ammunition!
Daniel says:
in the last three days I've gotten about 9 hours of sleep
its been...a little bit trying
Diane says:
No joke. How can you make good rational decisions when you can't see straight?
Daniel says:
oh yeah, and there was a rocket attack on the FOB early yesterday morning
Diane says:
OI!
Any damage from the rocket attack?
Daniel says:
not that I know of, but they were close to the tents
Diane says:
What do you do about your styker armor?
Daniel says:
get another stryker untill that one can be fixed
Diane says:
Oh great. The one with the other guy's brown trouser stains. That's totally awful.
