"Don't tie the nipples in knots"

Words of wisdom from my first full day on the ice. After sleeping for roughly 12 hours, then working 11 hours (one hour meal break)
and chugging 6 nalgenes (32 oz) through the day, I was surprised at my energy level after work. It was open basketball night
in the gym, so I played a couple of pick-up games before returning to my room to watch the recap of the Saints/Dolphins game,
and the Steelers/Vikes game... falling asleep before the later was over. Let me be more specific with what I mean when I say
"recap" they take a 3-4 hour football game, and make it into about a 45 minute broadcast on AFN (armed forces network). I also
saw the Vikes lose to Pittsburgh in my hotel in Christchurch. The cool thing about these condensed rebroadcasts is, since the
is over, any game changing plays (like Ted Ginn Jr. and his fake fumble) they pop up a box in the corner from the post game
interview and you here what the players had to say about it. It's like watch a game at 1 or 4 and that nights NFL Primetime
in one go. Pretty neat.
The beds are fairly comfortable but barely long enough. It'll be interesting when and if I share one of these with one of the
girls on base. By the way, they are very easy on the eyes and plentiful... particularly in my work center.  That's all for
today folks. Your song of the day is "This Life I Lead" from 2Pac's Better Dayz album.
