Posting via email seems to be working again.
On the subject of food. Food while deployed tends to be pretty decent. The chow halls here are the best I've eaten in while deployed. The quality is high, and there is also decent selection. They also have near beer, which is pretty cool. Overall, the food has always been pretty decent in my deployed experience. What I have experienced, however, is not that the food is bad, it just gets monotonous. My last rote, I was on nights for about 6 weeks once, and so the only two meals available were breakfast and dinner. I tended to choose breakfast, and then one day, I couldn't eat eggs any more. And I didn't eat eggs for about 8 months.
When this happens, I have to find things that I do like at the chow hall to motivate myself to go. For the second half of one rote at Al Udeid, I became addicted to salads (with a ton of ranch dressing). Another time, it was root beer. For most of my last rote in Kuwait, I had at least one ice cream sandwich, after every meal.
