No, I really am in Afghanistan. The company I work for is based out of Houston, TX, and they have our internet / land lines set up to run through there. If you're checking my IP, then that's what you're going to see. Anyway, if y'all want me to hold up a sign that says "Thailand QA What's up!" with the Hindu-Kush mountains behind me, I can do that!

Anyway, I'm not in the military - I'm a government contractor. Sadly, I'm a lowly civilian, but those were some good ideas. I don't think I could do anything beyond what you all are doing.

I do want to get married to her, but I only get vacation every 3½ months, and I don't know - I feel like if she's my wife, I want to be with her 24/7. You know what I mean? I also want to bring her home FIRST to meet my family and friends before I got married, although if I really can't do that, I might just say screw it and get married.

We'll see, though. I love her a lot, and I know she feels the same, but who's to say she won't get so lonely she'll be with someone else? If she's definitely loyal to me, than I'm definitely gonna marry her - no question. We talk every single day, and I feel a close connection with her. I've heard that Thai women, when in love, are extremely loyal. I don't know if that's fact or fiction, but if it's true, she's found the right guy.
