So yesterday I got my first care package from my Wife since I've been in Afghanistan. I've been here for 5 months, but just recently got to a place that I would be at long enough to receive mail. I talked to her a couple weeks ago when I first got here and told her about a couple things I needed and she said she would send them out. I get the package yesterday and it's got easily twice the amount of stuff I asked for. Including a couple issues of Bassmasster and Popular Mechanics. Double. So she apparently has written me a letter for every month I've been out here, and at the end of the one for September (my birthday month), she puts, and I quote, "I promise we'll celebrate your birthday when you get home, and we'll get whatever you need for the boat!!". Right away, everything that was said in the letters was drowned out by the last part of that "quote". She knows I need a trolling motor, fish finder, and carpet. This morning I talked to her on Facebook, and told her I'm gonna hold her to it. She responds with "I wrote that latter long before I found out the trolling motor you wanted was $1000" :roll: Yeah, we'll see about that...
