Stupid Messed up Poison Ivy. It itched so bad last
night that it woke me up from a dead sleep. We only get showers once
a day, and I have like nothing to put on it. So hard no to
stratch... Yesterday was the only day since last friday that it
didn't get worse, but today's it's about twice as bad. I don't know
how to make it tolerable for the next four days, and that's all I
need to do. I really can't imagine doing a 10K tomorrow when I can
barely bend my ankles. If we can go to the PX this afternoon, maybe
I'll be able to buy some stuff to make it through. The worst though,
is the horrible swollen ankles that I have.
So I'm just
waiting in line for the phone now, worrying about my ankles,
wondering if I should go to sick call tomorrow and miss the 10K. I
know I never will, but this all just sucks.
It's so rainy
today too. This morning it was completely pouring out. I guess some
hurricane or something might be headed this way, so the weather
could get interesting on our FTX. That sucks too. I just cannot get
out of this bad mood for the past few days.
Vollrath told me
that his parents were big fans of this site. Since everyone here is
telling friends/family about this, they want comments about
themselves. That's cool, but it takes a while for these pages to get
posted.
September 1st tomorrow, that's so messed up that I've
been here for 2 months already. It feels like I've been away from
home for the longest time, but basic has only been a few weeks. It's
gone fast. Yesterday I had my first cheeseburger since July 6th.
Since all but 7 of us passed the PT test, we can now eat whatever we
want except ice cream in a bowl, and soda. It seriously was strange
to eat a cheeseburger, but I eat so fast now I don't taste it that
much anyhow. Plus, I usually have 3-4 different types of foods in my
mouth at one time, it's just a collage of flavor. When I'm finishing
chewing so I can stand up, I'll taste some jello or something, then
I realize I ate the jello first. Whatever...
