Well today marked (checks calendar) 16 days left until I leave for basic. By today I mean Thursday. Its actually Friday now. However... we are definitely getting down there. Two more weeks and then its *poof* basic time.
I did a good job waking up at 6am this morning so I can try to get my body on a sleep pattern. But as some of you know I'm still awake and its almost 3am. Fuck.
I was awake all day until about 5:30 this evening when a wave of tiredness swept over me and laying on my bed for what seemed like only a moment turned into three hours. Shit balls. So now I'm still awake. I'm sure laughing my ass off to "Angry Video Game Nerd" videos on youtube isn't helping, but its pretty fucking funny.
I was thinking earlier what I need to get done before I go and the list is pretty short. I want to donate clothes to Goodwill or the Salvation Army before I go since a lot of these clothes I'll never wear again. Also need to go through the few boxes of possessions that I have. On top of that, I need to schedule when I'm going to beat the fuck out of this computer because once I get the chance, I'm buying a new Apple laptop... or whatever they are called these days. I've been a PC user for so long that crossing enemy lines is like a whole new world *queue Aladdin song*
In other news, this woman that I was seeing about a month ago decides to start texting me over the last three nights... when she is shitfaced. Don't get me wrong, I've done my share of drunk texts. But she is pulling the cliche "I miss you" card. I'm thinking at the time... "okay, she is drunk and will not remember the next day or mean it." I am dead wrong. She texts me asking why I didn't respond or comment on her statements. Sigh.
In a way, I'm kind of happy that I'm not leaving anyone or anything behind. It would be a very hard thing to do to someone and I have trust issues already, I don't think I need to add gas to the fire with this situation. I've heard too many horror stories from my brother about those that either leave significant others behind or get married and when they go to post they get cheated on. I'd really like to not have my first marriage go that way... and by first I mean only marriage (I hope).
Besides that the world of Marcus (Hi, thats me) is going pretty well. Just breathing in and out and going through each day the best way that I can.
Sleep time now? Doubt it.
