Sick Call
Last night after I signed off I felt strange, but thought I would be OK. At 2am I woke up with my digestive system about to go into reverse. After a half hour in the latrine, I got back to bed. I woke up and got dressed and went to the range for today's training, but I was a mess and thinking the symptoms were about to return. Our motor officer drove me to sick call. The doctor said I have a virus and sent me to the barracks. I slept from 0830 until about 1600. I went on bought some crackers then went back to bed. I tried eating dinner. I am not very hungry, but feeling better. Hopefully, I'll be OK tomorrow. I should certainly be well rested.

Sorry to read you were sick, Neil. So one day off was surely nice, but how will you catch up on what the others have learned in the meantime? Seems everyday is filled up with indispensable classes... and they don't want you to get deployed without every skill taught and evaluated, do they?
