Second question: I haven't read every entry on your blog, but I never see any indication that you are unhappy to be where you are. Were you *at all* upset to get called up to Iraq?

All,

Easy, now, easy...

Everyone, this is Amy; Amy, this is everyone.

Amy has a blog of her own that I came across, "J'habite A Paris", that is fantastic, about the life and times of her American family in Paris. Came across it while on the Blogspot website.

I posted a comment that I thought her site was great; she wrote back after looking at this blog; I asked if she had any questions to let me know; and as they say in France, "voila", here are her questions. She is good people; let's let her live. :)

And besides, she is seeing more combat in Paris than we are here just now!

No offense taken at all! :) I appreciate the honesty, and apologize if I sounded like I was "digging for dirt." I suppose the first answer to your response is, "Duh, of course you miss family, friends, holidays, etc." Mostly, I was just (pleasantly) surprised at Erik's good sense of humor and startling ability to find something positive to say all the time. Not exactly what you see on TV in America, you know? (Happy people don't sell newspapers or attract viewers.)

As a fellow optimist, thanks for sharing the "bright side" of a war-torn country.
