1. God Damnit! My son just came home and told me he's on the list for

Afghanistan. They gave him a choice. Sign up to the list for 6 mo. in Afghanistan, or risk getting called up for 1 year in Iraq.

Guess which one he picked? If he goes, he will be leaving the month before his baby is born.

He sooooo does not want to go. He knows we aren't over there for the right reasons, and he's afraid of ending up caught in a situation (like Haditha) that will cost him a part of his soul.

:cry:
