0736 Pearl Jam, 11 May 2000
Just did two thirds of an APFT...72 pushups and 62 situps. The rain was coming down heavy once we finished the situps, so the 1SG kanked the run. They're planning to reschedule the test two weeks out from now. There is a good chance that I will be on leave seeing PJ then though. Oh well. That chapter packet that had me so distressed Friday? Well, it's been worked out. I was *not* wrong...damn green legal assistance attorney didn't know here left foot from her right foot. I took that packet up to Bde Legal yesterday...where SFC Wade, it seems, promptly lost a vital document. If he doesn't find it we'll have to print it back out and get it signed again--no real big deal but it makes ME look like I can't keep track of things... *Sigh* That's the army for you. That transcript for the Article 32b is finished-finished up the testimony over the weekend. SFC Wade is reviewing it and the DD Form 457 (Investigating Officers Report), to be signed by the IO. Foxtrot has another Article 15 on the burner, a possible SCM on a drugee (at the least a vacation of a suspended sentence on a prior Articel 15). Have a SCM tomorrow on an adulterist. Have post trial docs to prepare, and pre trial docs to prep as well. Should be a semi-quiet day really. *Whew* Finally got myself down to the Commisery this weekend to get some joe...mmmmmm I brew a mean pot. :) Heh, made level 15 in EQ last night. ;) This weekend I rear-ended a truck. I honestly can't even recall what day it was right now. It was raining and I was coming up to Burger King to get dinner. This brain surgeon had missed the turn--i guess becasue his brakes locked up, and he was just sitting there, in the middle of the damn road. It's a damn lucky thing that I WAS going to get BK--I was coming back from having dropped my dry cleaning off I think, which would have made it Sunday, so it's not as if BK had been the goal. If I hadn't slowed down ahead of time to turn...it could have been ugly. *real* ugly. Anyway, I see this truck, and I slam on the brakes...but of course due to the first rain in a while, the road was slick and I didn't stop fast enough. Dented his bumper a bit. But I hardly casued anything other than a ribble of the paint on my bumper, maybe a thumbnail big. I can't even see it unless I get three inches from it and rub it with my finger. It's even under the license plate area. So of all the possibilities, I can't imagine a better scenario. Did I mention I haven't had a cigarette since Friday night? Yeah I went through an entire Carton in a weeks time and decided that, based on that, I'd had enough! Maybe that's why I'm not fiending right now--still have residual niccoteine pouring through my blood stream.
0809 This entry was all said and done when I was checkign my email and somethign abotu traveling came through...sparked my memory-about a dream I had last night, or mayeb it was after I woke up at like 3 or 4 and went back to sleep...anyway here it is: I was getting ready to go off on a trip to see PJ. I can't remember all the places but I know that there were at least two shows in Japan--I was doing a world PJ tour type adventure. The day that I was to leave, I was sitting here at the keyboard...probably playing EQ, I dunno, when it hit me...I gotta leave to go see PJ in Japan! How rad is that going to be! So I rushed to pack and then stopped to realize, I didn't have a plan ticket! Then it morphed and I was at the airport wanderign around, lookign for my flight (I had apparently gotten an insane deal on a ticket at the counter or something). Thinking about it, I'm pretty sure I actually got on a plane in my dream--i seem to remember sitting in one, btu that's it. That was probably where I woke up (either the first time, or at 0555). Yes I'm an obsessed fan to mention such a trivial dream...but coupled with the fact that's it's PJ and I don't relate dreams much...I got a postcard from Christa yesterday--over in gran' ol' Ireland with Brian right now...Dunluce Castle. The post mark is too light to read the date, but I do believe that she should be coming back stateside any day now. And yes, I've pictures I need to scan....godz I ALWAYS seem to have pictures I need to scan! I'll probably have some pictures from her as well... Oh and hell I've got a poem I need
to post as well.
