I’m all caught up! Huzzah! Remember you can hover your mouse over the photos for extra caption funtastic action! Day 120 – April 4 2011 I’m finally on SCBA with my fire team. What’s SCBA? Self Contained Breathing Apparatus. Just add Underwater and you have SCUBA. It’s not SCUBA though, I tried. Anyways, we had [...]
Gotta keep catching up. This is turning out to be a fairly fantastic way of both journaling and keeping y’all up to date. March 28th – Day 113 So I stumbled into this one. Apparently there’s a breakfast cereal club. Basically we’re deprived of sugar cereals among other things on the ship. So whenever somebody [...]
Now I’m just one week behind! My previous assessment of time was pretty poor. I’m currently listening to a DC Talk Say the Words remix, which is random both in that I mention it and in how it came to play on my computer. Nostalgia hit. John Dalbey eat your heart out. Day 106 – [...]
I’m only a month behind now! Huzzah! Day 99 – March 14th 2011 This is one of those things that I guess you come to expect living here. You’re just walking through the ship and what’s this? A pile of barracuda hanging out in reception? That makes sense. The things are huge! They may [...]

Guess what?! I’m being productive! You’re about to get caught up even farther into last month. One might even think that maybe… just maybe… they’ll get caught up completely soon. Don’t get those hopes too high there Icarus. I’ve got a life to lead here too; but I’m working on it. In the case of [...]
Still catching up. It’s gonna take a while. But all good things (and photo per day posts) are worth waiting for! February 28th 2011 (Not a leap year, dang it) Day 78 This was our first fire drill in port. It ended up being more of a general muster than anything; making sure we knew [...]
April Fools! I’m not leaving the ship you guys! Don’t be silly, I just got here. As of today I’ve been in Africa exactly 4 months, which means I’ve got 20 more to go. Unless, of course, the chaplains really do send me home. Here’s hoping I make the cut Thanks for putting up with [...]
