Easter

Well its that time of year again. Easter is here and i get to go on a weekend sugar high!!!!!!!! This year we have been lovely adopted as family at Jason/Sabrina's house down in Killeen, TX (Fort Hood). So thats where we will be starting tonight. Don't worry i don't have my new camera yet so i can't ruin another one while i am there! This weekend is also little Angela's birthday (yep that makes me the big one!). And its Jason's birthday weekend, plus matt is getting shipped somewhere new. And last and most importantly its Hugh Hefner's birthday on April 9th. Happy birthday Hef!!!!!!!! (you never know he could read this some day!).

So as i do for all holidays i want to know what traditions you have or what you do on Easter. Good/bad/fun/boring/liked or disliked let me know.

Next Assignment (actual notice!)

Ok so we officially made the Road Map! This is good; it means they have an idea where we will go after OK. And the great news is…that it's the location we were hoping for! Are you ready? We are going to Ras Laffan, Qatar. Tentative date is May 20th. Ok now I will give you a chance to look it up since I doubt many of you know where its at………………………………………………………….........................…………………………………….……..ok you got it now?

Now before you freak out saying it's located in the middle east and the only country it borders is Saudi Arabia, remember we have people who check things out at all times to make sure we are safe. And this area is safe. Notice however it also has mainly ocean borders! Which means kick-ass scuba diving. I am going to have to start practicing some Arabic language. English is well spoken there (it's the official second language).

I WISH it was an April Fool's day joke.

So remember that brand new camera that i bought while we were in Singapore. I said how much i loved it and how cool it is! Well after having a heaving party night with Sabrina/nikki/jason/matt (which i somehow thing its ther fault also!). I found out something important that i need to share.

So I started the night off with drinking an entire bottle of Malibu Rum. Then we were all to drunk to drive so we got a Taxi TO The bar. I can't remember a time i actually need the taxi to the bar. That should have been my first clue this was going to be an expensive night. We once we got the the club we were doing shots and drinks and playing pool and kind of dancing. It starts to get a little fuzzy here. But i was only fuzzy! Others were passed out by 11pm (i will not say who but it was someones birthday that night!). Any who....somehow in the night i spilled (or at least we think it was me) a beer on the brand new camera. Nice right. Well good news is that my picture memory card was fine. However the camera....well it now sleeps with the fishes. Now i am on the hunt for a new digital point and click camera. I had the Panasonic DMC-FX01 it had the awesome feature of Optical Image Stabilizer....fancy name for...as drunk as i get and as much as i wiggle the picture will come out perfect! So anyone have any wonderful digital camera ideas they want to share with me. Otherwise i might just buy another one of these (and let Troy carry it at the bar!) PICS
