Dear Jessie,
You should be back in California by now. I hope your flight with the girls went alright. Was that little trip worth the hassle? I hope it was.
As you know, today is my birthday and it was alright. We took the combat life saving test today and I passed easily. I was hooked up to a catheter twice. My arms are still a little sore. I also got to hook someone else up. It was kind of nerve racking. Drill Sergeant said he would give us 30 minutes on the phone if we passed the first time. I thought he meant tonight but I guess he didn't. He also said there was no mail which is bogus - he just doesn't want to give us any. So I didn't get that package yet. I really miss you right now. Sometimes I wonder why I did this.
Next week apparently we are going out into the field. We are going "camping" for 4 days doing all sorts of stuff. I think it will be a good change. The time really has started going faster. We are almost in week 3 now and I am ready to get out of this read phase. I want some liberties and to make some of my own choices. I also really don't like the drill sergeants very much. They just make life annoying. They don't really live up to their reputation as much as I thought.
I am also really sick of my platoon. Their language is so terrible and they talk about the most disgusting things. They can barely believe that I didn't have sex until I was 21. Don't worry about me, I'm fine, I just needed to vent to someone.
I love you.
Brad
