January 12th, Friday, My First Day Off

What do you do in a place where there is nothing to do on your day off? This is certainly a question worth it’s “wait” in gold.
This was my first entire day off since arriving here on December 20th. I slept in until 8:15am local time. Then, I ate a quick and light breakfast and then hit the gym. Afterwards, I showered and then grabbed my camera (A pentax K110D) and walked the central part of the base to take pictures. Ever since the dawn of digital, I’ve become quite a photo buff, hence the purchase of the digital SLR. Notably, I walked to the Pat Tillman USO and took pictures of the facilities and his Jersey.
Then Lunch.
After lunch, I spent some time playing my PSP game, Brothers In Arms D-DAY (I think). Then I grabbed my SLR again and hit the road North all the way to the North PX and took pictures of the mountains along the way.
I do need to point out that it is unlikely that I will post very many pictures here in the interest of Operational Security. The Internet is open to everyone including the enemy. So family and friends will be able to see the pictures via CD-ROM eventually. No one else can.
After the trek north, I returned to my BHUT and grabbed my Clancy Novel. I went to work and sat in the MWR room and finished it off. We have nice couches and lighting so it was a good choice.
Then, I went to dinner and had steak and ice cream.
Afterwards, I walked dinner off and then headed to the day spa for my weekly massage.
After the massage, I chatted with the wifey on web cam.
