Merry Christmas everyone

A year ago I was in Iraq, resetting the rec center after midnight mass on Christmas Eve so that the troops could play texas hold’em. I slept during the day and came back to work that night, playing a giant game of twister, making reindeer antlers out of balloons and pantyhose, running combat musical chairs, and distracting the troops in any way possible. It’s amazing how much difference a year makes.

Merry Christmas to everyone, and Godspeed to all my troops.
