There's tired....
...and then they're Army tired. I can't blame anyone but myself; I volunteered for this. I was up at 4:30 a.m., got home at 7:30 p.m. and am doing it again tomorrow. After this, shower, reading, and sleep.
Couple of Army related things of a personal nature. I've decided to cut off all my hair before I deploy. The reason is that I had a hard enough time keeping it clean when I was in Honduras--and in Honduras we had unlimited water. Plus you have to be in full PTs to get up to take a piss in the middle of the night, and it's bad enough I have to put on socks and running shoes instead of putting on my sandals the way I did in Honduras. Having to put my hair up properly to go to the latrine at 4 a.m. is not something I want to have to worry about.
I had an unsettling dream my last night in Colorado. I dreamt I was about to leave on deployment and my family was in town to say goodbye. It was my parents,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
americanstd and electorprince . I went upstairs to wash my hands or something, came downstairs, and saw Mei-Mei. Even though she was Mei-Mei, she was a Siamese like Badira, just rounder and cuter. I wailed out, "Don't die on me!", then turned to americanstd and electorprince in turn and cried out the same thing, then the same with my parents. One of my other long-lost cats, an orange shorthair named Beau was looking down from the landing at me.
I now need a shower and to get this headache under control. See you later.
