Sunday is my day off from working in the motorpool, if you wanna call it work.  I hardly do anything here anymore, most of the time I spend walking around talking and random people and complain about the our great Army.  I figured out a way to cheese my way out of getting in trouble when I walk around and talk to people.  (I found out that if you walk around with papers or a clipboard in your hand it looks like you're working and no one will say anything to you...you should try it.) But when I actually do have work to do I like to stretch it out till the end of the day, just encase they decide to put me on a detail.  I almost feel like I'm robbing the Army of its money because I do absolutely nothing ... the most important work I do here is when I have to cover the dispatch guy in the office when he takes his lunch and of course when I go on missions up north-bang bang!  
 
Sunday's are my day off, I think.  I'm the song leader (one of my many extracurricular activities) here at the post chapel here on base and my day start off pretty early, about 0600ish, and by the time I get back to my "personal living container" it almost past lunch!  This makes me kinda wonder if this really is my day off ... I guess going to church doesn't really count, but it would be awesome if I could sleep in till at least 0900.  I think that last I slept in was when I was on R&R in Thailand and that was like last Summer!
