Good news: Whatever I've been suffering from the past few days (theories on it have ranged from sinus infection to bird flu...sheesh. I would've gone to Medical if they had any sort of "get you checked out right away" or even "get you checked out sometime TODAY" service, rather than being entirely "we can get you checked out in about 3 weeks"...) is finally beginning to clear up.
Bad news: I'm still not at 100%, and the weather has cleared up today. Why is that a bad thing? Because today's the PRT, and I was hoping that the shitcan weather we had last night was going to hold over to today so it would be postponed so I could recover my strength. So much for that plan.
Hopefully I'll be allowed to take a make-up PRT if I, as will most likely happen, crash and burn today, because if I do and they don't let me try again, I'm finished. I've failed 2 in the past 4 years..I blow this one, new regulations require them to seperate me from military service.
I know that sounds weird from someone who doesn't particularly LIKE military life, but here's my reasoning on it: I gave them my word when I enlisted that I would be in for 6 years, and believe it or not, I value my promises. I know I break them sometimes, and believe me, I feel terrible for it when it happens.
Anyway...well, here's hoping I can muster up the strength to make it today. I took another shot of Vicks 44 a little while ago, so hopefully any lingering symptoms will start to clear up in a while and I can put more effort into running a mile and a half rather than running a fever.
...I'm really hoping work gets tanked today due to it being PRT day. Why? Simple. I brought my utilities home last night to wash them, then went to take a short nap. That short nap ended about 4 AM this morning. Even if I could get those things out of the dryer at some reasonal point today, I imagine they're gonna be wrinkled as hell. Sure, I've got my coveralls at work, but guess what my genius ass threw in the wash WITH my utilities? Yep...my belt. Not sure if taking it in while it's sopping wet is such a good idea, but I might not have a choice. Man, I MUST have been burnt out yesterday. x.x
Oh yeah...there's also the Sneak Preview of the next Yu-Gi-Oh expansion, Enemy Of Justice, tomorrow up at the University of Maryland. Hope I'm feeling up to that, too.
...Right. That's it.
