I think I've finally reached the point where I no longer care about Iraq or Afghanistan. At least the public discussions about each one. My only remaining curiosity is whether it is worth going back into the Army.

I'm enjoying my summer - not working (other than some volunteer work), not going to school, just burning through what remains of my deployment money. But I guess I need to actually earn some money again at some point. I'd love to go back in the Army if we're going to fight. I don't want to go back if we're going to oversee redeployment and retrograde ops from a FOB in Kabul. If we're doing the latter, then I'd rather be a Wal-Mart greeter. Any predictions? I'm still watching and trying to anticipate what's going to happen.
