I dunno why I thought this but I did.

I remember when I was at bootcamp we had PT in the morning for like an hour and a half.
I used to wake up with the puffiest eyes in the world.
My whole face was wicked wicked swollen and red.
When we would march the PT field I remember how when hadda workout the first sargeant and my drill sargeants would come up to me and ask me howcome my eyes were swollen.
They thought it was because I was allergic to the ugly green wool blankets we hadda sleep on.
My eyes used to be like filled with fluid and puss every morning, eventually it would go away...I would have to rub my eyes alot though... and I could feel the fluid and puss coming out.
Once they figured I was "allergic" to the wool...they changed my blankets and gave me white cotton ones...
I looked like the only retard in the barracks with white blankets on my bed while everyone else had the green ones on them.
My eyes prevented me from doing alot in the morning, I would have to sit out and watch everyone else workout and run and stuff and I would just sit there on my mat like an idiot and watch everyone else.
It was also hard to shoot my M16 with my eyes the way they were so I had to get these stupid stupid glasses called BCG's...which stood for Birth Control Glasses...dont ask me why they were named that...idk.
I still have them too somewhere.
I look so bugeyed with them on...but...
I cant complain cuz they are the ones that helped me see when it came to rifle qualifications.
Well at least wearing them took the attention away from the puffiness of my eyes.

Idk why I remembered that but I did.
Oh I know...cuz I was packing last night and I came across them and put them on and after that I wanted to burn them...they are soooooo ugly.

Ok.
Well...
Now I really gotta go.
Peace and all that other crap.

<3 Me.
