The bathroom smells worse and worse everyday. I don’t know if they haven’t been cleaning it right or what. It doesn’t help that the water pressure goes out every now and then. I had to wash all the soap off in the shower with a trickle of water, it took me about 5 minutes.
The food is the same every day. We look in the tubs every day to see if theres something new. I don’t know why someone doesn’t just shout out, “It’s the SAME THING”. It really puts down your appetite. I’m going to have to start forcing myself to eat this stuff. We make more trips to the chow hall after work now only because the stuff there actually changes.
I want sushi.
Right now im trying to sleep but they are changing the handle/lock on the door of our room. Why couldn’t this have been taken care of during the 13 hours I was at work?
Yesterday, I walked into my room and noticed that all the magazines with the cool pictures of girls in bikinis were gone. I asked my roommate what happened to them..
Me- What happened to the magazines?
Roomie – I gave them away to some of the other guys in the dorm.
Me- WHAT?! Why would you do that?
Roomie – I donno. If you care so much go and get them back.
Me – I don’t feel very comfortable sleeping in here with you giving out our only girl magazines, knowing that we wont be seeing any hot girls for four months.
Roomie – are you ok man? Your starting to offend me over here. Are you calling me gay?
Me- I didn’t say that. I just said it makes me uncomfortable that you dislike the girl magazines enough to give them away while we’re over here. I feel good just knowing that theyre in here.
Roomie - …
Am I wrong? Why would you do that? What a dummy.
I was heated. I did what any good man does. I went and got a pedicure with my buddy Walker.
It cost $7 I couldn’t handle the part where they were scrubbing the calices off of my feet because my feet were to ticklish. Walker was laughing at me big time. The girl asked me if I wanted to shiny nail polish. I asked her if any other guys get the shiny nail polish. I finally realized that she was just playing a joke on me. I did not get any nail polish. They do the deal and then massage your legs / feet for a little bit. The only time we get to see our feet is in the pool, or in the dorms.. so no one really gets to see the finished product except me.
I woke up today, looked down and thought, “Damn my feet look good.”
So should I be uncomfortable with my roomie for giving away the magazines, or should he be uncomfortable with me for getting a pedicure? It was a GIRL who gave me the pedicure.
I asked for a 0 on the sides and a 1 on the top.. but they must have understood because they shaved my entire head bald. Now I look like an alien with those crazy lumps in the back of my head.
My friend Colvard was giving out his grandmas oatmeal cookies today. There weren’t any raisins in them! Isn’t it mandatory to put raisins in oatmeal cookies? Colvard says to me, “They’re oatmeal cookies, not oatmeal RAISIN cookies, idiot.” Weird southern folk.. It was still a good oatmeal cookie. Thanks Grandma Colvard.

Hey...your roomie looks good!
is that a mirage or did I see a female?
I think being in the heat, in close quarters, being home sick, eating the same old chow every day, facing the risks of Iraq will lead to tension and irritability.
probably best to go with the flow and try to hang loose...
it's already such a high tension situation and it will only escalate and upset you further..
think about those daily milkshakes!!
What kind of snacks can we send you that would make it to iraq??
i think you should be a little worried about your roommate, that is quite strange. just keep one eye open when you sleep haha. and you got a pedicure? whaaaat?? we gotta go together when you get back then!!
ok first of all..yes be worried bout ur roommate..uber weird!!
second of all..i don't like oatmeal cookies or oatmeal RAISIN cookies so i could care less! BAH!
third of all..pedicures r AWESOME!!! wen u get bak i'll treat u to a sess! o and a sess of sushi of course! POW!
