The Joys of Afghanistan...

One of the good things about Afghanistan, if there are any, is that with nothing better to do, I find myself at the gym a lot.  There is usually always time for a good workout.  Unfortunately, after a good work out, a good shower is not always guaranteed.

Tonight I got home from the office to find a sign on the door to the latrine and showers.  The note said something along the lines of, due to a major water leak, this facility will be without water for an undetermined amount of time.  Well isn't that lovely.  So, I had to make due with bottled water and baby wipes.  So when you go to take your next shower, be thankful for a couple of things.  1. you don't have to go outside to get to your bathroom (hopefully)  2. You don't have to wear shoes into the shower  3.  When you turn on the shower, water will actually come out  4. You can keep the water running during your shower and not take a combat shower (which consists of turn water on, get wet, turn water off, soap up, turn water on, rinse off, turn water off, and repeat)
