-O-course!

Got up early toady, got some breakfast on campus and decided to hit the ROTC obstacle course. I brought gloves this time, so I could fast rope down the rope climb, rather than hand-over-hand down the damnm thing like the last couple of times. It was relatively early when I got to the O-course, but it was already hotter that two match sticks fuckin' in a wool sock. By the time I'd completed the first pass (about 3 minutes) I was already drenched, my do-rag filled and overflowing into my eyes. I repeated the course two more times, just to see if it could kill me. It didn't, but while considering a fourth run, I pussied out. I know I could have done it, but I woulda been wasted for the better part of the morning. Instead, I hopped back on the bike, rode for 30 more minutes to keep the heart rate up and headed back to Zilla Manor.

Gave myself a quick hair cut (the top was starting to get outta control), took care of the new tats and caught up on the news. I'm hoping I can get in touch with Ai today, maybe go to lunch. There's something about her that's just...pleasant. She's not presumptuous or damaged like the last few girls I've chatted up. There was this one young lady I was talking to a few weeks ago...damn did she have issues! Beautiful, but damaged. Can't have that. "Never date a woman with more problems than you." I don't remember who said that, but after my last relationship, I believe it.

I'll be glad when this week is over. I have a final on wednesday and thursday, and work on friday (I really wanted to sleep in on friday, but money makes the world go 'round and who am I to stop the globe's spinning?). I'm looking forward to the USN meeting this weekend. It'll be nice. Some of the guys are getting together to shoot before dinner, so that'll be fun. I think I've earned a steak.
