...$..%..^..&..#..@..!

So anyother .. yea anyother, i ment another week of work in the books. (for the record im a little tired) um... last week i said that i was going to go walk around the island, and i did, but i quickly found out that its kinda large, so i only walked out like 2 miles then came back. it was a very tiring day too, and there was a "sand" storm going on, which it basically looks like a lot of fog, but its like 90 outside, so kinda confusing/weird to see. but as i was walking back to base, i managed to see the start middle and ending of a fight between some locals, it was kinda scary b/c the dude was trying to pull this girl out of the back seat, and that driver like jumped out and threw the guy off and then started punching him..... kinda odd, but whatever its bahrain.

during my work week, i was give a few tasks to complete, basically i had to go out to a job site, and see what they wanted, get a few measurements, and draw a rough sketch of the site, my LPO would then take this to the contractors and they would compare notes, and go from there. so my LPO was telling me that if i dont take the trouble desk, then ill be doing that, which would be kinda cool.

last night i went out with salzman, and had a few drinks, we actually walked like 2 miles to this bar called F1, an indy car inspired bar, and on our way out there, we walked thru this park. it was probably 830 900 and there were families out there with their kids, grilling out, having an evening picnic, it was kinda cool to see this, but weird b/c it was at night, im guessing b/c its so hot during the day, at night is when they grill out. it reminded me of this movie called steal the movie, it was about abbie hofman (sp) and the democratic convention, the vietnam war and a bunch of hippie times. in the movie they would just camp out in the parks and have like fires and music, (i assume the adults reading this remember those days) and thats what the locals were doing last night at this park. so it was kinda chill and relaxing to walk thru this. then we go to the bar had a few, and walked around a while, talked about sinning and what the Bible says about it. it was kind of a fun night.

then today i went to church for the week. so overall a pretty decent week.
