06 March 2007, Does your blog run your life? I won't say it runs my life but I do start watching the clock in the evenings and start thinking to myself, I need to go blog before people start to miss me. Now, Mrs Dub was worried about me when I first started working the streets of OKC as a police officer. Then one Friday night I had her do a ride a long with me to show her what we actually happens. Can you believe it was one of the slowest Friday nights I can remember. Our first call, was suppose to be a drunk on top of a church. When we got there, it was a air conditioner repairman on the little dinner next to the church. It got slower very quickly and Mrs. Dub called it a night well before it was time to quit. Where I'm going is that after that one night, she also learned that many people had my back if I needed it. I wasn't out there all alone, one man versus the world. She felt much better and slept better knowing that I had friends and co-workers there with me. So, I'm inviting everyone out there to come to Afghanistan to visit me, hehe. 1LT S. just got back from leave with his family in Texas. He visited a school to talk about what we are doing here. He was asked about the amount of violence we had here. He told them that if the news only talked about all the violence Texas it would sound much worse than what's happening here. In New Orleans, they had more murders in the first two weeks of 2007 than we had military deaths in both Iraq and Afghanistan for the same time period. But the U.S Congress isn't ready to give up on New Orleans yet. I see Sen. Clinton and Obama still aren't at work. Hmmmm.
Well, what did I do today that would be different from anything else I've reported? I changed two flat tires on a couple of pickups. Everything else was just more paperwork of one form or another.
Be safe and have a great day.
