Well i woke up at 3 am for the 10k fun run…well let me tell you there is nothing fun about running 10k’s. i get back from the run and had to get to formation for a promotion…not mine so i dont give a fuck…well the col shows up 45 mins late and it was already 115 degrees at 8:30 am…then as soon as this is over i run back to get in the shower since i did not have time since i did the 10k…well what do i find out…no fucking water in the water trailer…so i say fuck it and go back to sleep…well at 9:30am power goes out on base so no ac…

well its 6pm and theres water and the power is on…but i am sick as fuck and feel dehydrated…but i am sure no one gives a fuck

thats my rant for the day
