A day in the life of an American Soldier. The personal passages of everything from family life to war.

Do you like suspense?


American Soldier says,

Big news is a brewing. I haven’t been avoiding the blog nor do I have writer’s block. I have been busy behind the scenes preparing for some wonderful and exciting news.

Can anyone guess?

Update: I will be letting you all know sometime on 8/18. Trust me, you will appreciate the wait!

    No I don’t like suspence, it drives me nuts. :shock:
    BUT if I have to venture a guess Kat took it.
    Though if it isn’t a beautiful baby, is it news of you meeting another blogger?

    The thing that made me thing a baby was when he said “Wonderful news.” Unless someone wins the lottery, LOL, more often than not, that’s what people say when they have a “surprise” coming along, LOL ;-) Of course, I very well could be wrong, LOLOL!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Maybe he won some kind of awesome award for heroism?! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Maybe he’s gotten involved in a really big way with some organization taht will benefit the troops, and it’s about to really take off and be really big???? Heck, maybe he won the lottery, LOL!!!! ;-)

    OK, how long are you gonna make us suffer????!!!!!

    (Does the correct guesser win a prize?! :lol: :lol: :lol: ) ;-)

  9. ac Says:

    Wonderful news, that isn’t new life or love must be money- fame -or acceptance. That’s what my bet is on.

  10. Kat in GA Says:

    Well, he’s already famous, lol, at least in the blogosphere, so that may not be it. Then again, LOL what do i know? :roll: Oh, that’s right…NOTHING! lol :lol: :lol:

  11. Kat in GA Says:

    Maybe his surgery won’t be as drastic as they originally thought?! Wouldn’t that be a great thing!

  12. Kat in GA Says:

    A.S., you are driving us all NUTS!!! LOL :lol: :lol:

  13. American Soldier Says:

    Just stay tuned! :) Surgery is still going to suck so that isn’t it.

  14. Kat in GA Says:

    Aw, drat. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: I was really hoping surgery would be less sucky than anticipated!!! I figured that that was kind of an unrealistic hope, but ya never know.

    You do realize, don’t you, that I will now be checking this blog even MORE compulsively and frequently than I do alread, don’t you?! LOL (and that’s saying a lot, LOLOLOL!!!!) Will DEFINATELY be staying tuned!!!!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

LOL Oh, how bout this: The powers that be on “Over There” have decided to hire you on as a professional consultant!!!!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: (OK, maybe i’m being over-imaginative again, LOL…but that would be pretty cool, LOL)

    AS - I sure hope the VA isn’t scrimping at this point in time. I thought there was all this addtl funds allocated to the VA. But I do know someone else who is having a difficult time with the VA and treatment for PStd (or however the acrynym goes..). So, you’re going to keep the tension high on the guessing huh. You devil. Good luck on the surgery, you’ll do fine. I just know it.

  18. ~K Says:

    Kat sure is excited AS, thought I hated suspence..lmao :wink:
    no bun…..
    then you met another blogger?
    Your wife has a new blog she wants to do?
    Your child won a contest?
    You have an early Christmas Present and it is a new “tanker” full of gas?
    Your joking and want to get Kats goat?….lol :mrgreen:
    Sorry Kat couldn’t resist. I stayed away from As’s site so I wouldn’t go nuts.

  26. annegb Says:

    I just found this blog. It’s not as easy to find soldier blogs as you might think. Although, maybe I’m a moron.

    My son committed suicide while serving in the Marines, 14 years ago. My heart goes out to those serving anywhere in the world.

    I’ll be back. I want you guys point of view on the Iraqi war.
