Subject:Even My Goddamn Dreams Are Boring.
Time:1:04 pm.
Mood: blank.
Last night I dreamed I was at home in the middle of winter. I was heading downstairs, during night, and saw someone running off with a lamp in the sun room. It wasn't a valuable lamp and he didn't take anything else, and was rushing amazingly fast through the snow and out to the pond. That is it.

Mostly, I post this 'cause...it's so weird to not just remember a dream, but a simple, direct, plausible one. Nothing out of the ordinary happened in this dream beyond a robber and the house and stuff in it was perfectly correct, and the lamp I speak of IS no big loss. Which is...weird. I am going home for December, so maybe it's a portent of things to come.

EDIT: Well, I met with Howe again who gave me a ride home from the commissary and told me every base for peeps in our line of work stinks. Great. Although I can apply for a tour of just a couple (?!) months on a ship. Also the buttload of temp/maintenance sailors just outside the barracks they should be de-festing of ants told me they wanted my job. Hmm.

My God that episode of Venture was hilarious. I was laughing like I have not in a very long time.

I will never, ever be able to disassociate Captain Sunshine from Batman now thanks to that voice, sigh.

Yesterday it was fried chicken, tonight some kind of Italian. Where are these delicious smells coming from in the barracks?

Subject:Aaaargh.
Time:10:48 am.
Mood: gloomy.
Run: 11:11
Pushups: 78
Sit-ups: 60

Third place on the run, but I fuckin' let myself get fuckin' soft, fuck fuck fuck. I should never be above ten minutes for a mile and a half run.

Lol, the music playing in my head is the Sonic 3 time attack results.

EDIT: Okay showered, slightly calmer. Lemme explain:

Right now my body, at 24 next year, will apparently start going into the less-than-youthful category. Combine that with my traditional size (re: puniness) and the fact I am traditionally a runner, this is why the time aggravates me so. I definately feel I can stand (well, MOVE) with the fittest of them, and to see the numbers and learn I apparently cannot really gets to me. Same with pushups-they've been a pillar of exercise for me well before the navy, and doing about two less than last time, and having to tire out before the traditional two-minute test time...yuck.

I was third place in the particular group for the run, about fourth-to-fifth place for pushups, and sit-ups are never my thing, so sixty is alright by me.

Also, apparently my knees are crap and barely able to straighten out, and that finally got caught. Which is now something that is scaring me. My body might be soft, but it was never able to not do something. Sigh.

I should become a hermit and just train and PT all the time.

Subject:Goddamn They Strike Without Warning.
Time:7:26 pm.
Mood: bored.
I neglected to mention yesterday that I got caught by some cologne stand salesman yesterday at the mall-literally, he managed to spray some of the junk on me by surprise and as I recovered from this assault and contemplated calling for reinforcements or backup, this allowed him to start up his sales pitch.

'Ah military, yes?' (since, you know, haircut made it painfully obvious compared to all the hairy hipster teenagers. Also this guy had a REALLY STRONG east European accent)
'Yes.'
'Smell good for your lady?'
'I'm single.'
*just a tiny bit of a pause* 'But you can still smell good yes!' *turns about to stand to collect more or whatever*

Naturally, with his back turned, if even for that split second, I ran. I smelled...like...woodsy or something for the rest of last night. It sucked pretty bad.

Also, a book signing by Mike Huckabee is due next month at the mall's Barnes n' Noble. Can you believe that is what passes for excitement around here?

------

I'm going to go to Charleston in the next two weeks. Next week if I can manage it, but the NEXT next weekend in case something crops up thanks to work (which, every weekend without fail, it has).

Subject:Picture/Haircut Comparison Time.
Time:11:05 pm.
Mood: amused.
I got a buzzcut today so I wouldn't have to get a haircut for a while, here.

Woo-ha it awaits! )

I rather prefer the look of having hair, even if this current buzzcut is comfortably cool right now. I figured I'd take the glasses off just for extra-difference, duh.

I had gone out for the day, bought another book which is nice-Zombie Survival Guide since that's my current obsession and not much else looks good on the market. I will probably try to raid comic shops soon here in town (well...quickly. The bookshops here generally are arse for the most part) and in Atlanta and Charleston just to start seeing what I can find and to do something for my days off now.

Time:1:25 am.
Mood: contemplative.
Today was oddly very quiet on all fronts. There is barely anyone online and I only had one co-worker today.

Ever have one of those evenings where you have a lot of feeling and emotion welled up but you have absolutely no way of feeling how to express it? I feel that. It's not even DEPRESSING emotion, I just feel like talking-and I just have no clue what to say.

Subject:Shot.
Time:10:17 pm.
Mood: sick.
I hate vaccinations.

I collapsed the last time I had a flu shot.

I feel very weak currently, just like last time. I am ready to sleep very, very much right now yet have work tomorrow. And in both instances of these shots have I ever felt truly sick.

This sucks.

I'll go to bed in a bit and going to bed before midnight for once would now be a damn impressive thing to do for me lately.

Subject:Tagged by [info]flight__
Time:9:59 pm.
01. If you've been tagged, you must write your answers in your own LJ and replace any question that you dislike with a new, original question.
02. Tag eight people. Don't refuse to do that. Don't tag who tagged you. In short: OBEY. NO TAG BACKS! XD

I am not going to tag anyone, barely anyone uses LJ lately.

And here we go! )
