It's going on two years for you. I finally got some time between the Shi'a and Sunni to come over and visit! Although I haven't really been looking in on you for some time, since I was in PA in June 07, it seems like not a lot has changed. Has your W. come out and told you what her long term plan is yet? How long can you go on? At least I could get over here and get totally absorbed in something else until I could semi-wrap myself around the inevitable. Less than 20 days left here. My original orders said 690 days active duty: Operation Iraqi Freedom. I can remember the anxiety those words alone brought to me, and I can still remember almost trying to bail out of this. That would have been a horrible mistake for me.
You are fighting trench warfare every day. You can't distance yourself, because she's constantly THERE, which is hugely difficult. I remember you talking about your 40th BD almost two years ago now. That's plain painful. Plus, her undecided attitude lets you stay stalled. You can't move forward, because she's not been definitive. Ugh.
