two more days...
Two more days until the weekend. I wish it were tomorrow.
This class I'm in is very dry. I sit in a comfortable chair, and try to stay awake between breaks while various instructors talk to us about how to estimate how many pieces of rebar we'll need for a concrete pour. This is not the stuff I was expecting when I enlisted.
We have another inspection in our dress blues tomorrow; I'll try to get pictures this time. I used to dislike this particular uniform--and then I wore it in the early morning, when it was still 38 degrees outside. It's 100% wool, and I wear two shirts underneath it. I was warm. The guys...were not. Their uniforms leave a good portion of their neck & chest exposed (and let's admit, a cotton t-shirt is not much help against cold coastal winds), and their hats don't cover anything. After that morning, I decided I definitely like what I have to wear.
Ok, now it's off to bed. It's only nine, but I'm frakking tired. I ran 2 miles this morning (the last half mile with an untied sneaker), and then had urinalysis...twice, since I couldn't pee enough the first time (yeah, THAT was a fun one).
