A bad start to the new year...

I hope somehow this night gets better then the rest of the day has gone for me..

An interesting day..

Almost got hit by a car today! Which happens daily usually just I'm in my car and not in the crosswalk when that happens. All I remember is a bunch of cars started honking and turn to see a car coming right towards me and my friend. My friend is about a step in front of me and I jump back away from the car and almost forget my friend but turn around and yank her back. The car passes us without even slowing down and kind of stop 40ft passed us and my friend tried yelling at them but she's sick she couldn't yell.. We were both shaken up.. Ahh The fun of Sunset Blvd :|
Well I drove her home after that and went home.. bored..

Determined not to be bored I got into contact with one of my buddies from training and made plans to goto a strip club since he hadn't really gone before.
So we meet at 4Play(TMI :P?) in West LA. Me and my buddy walk in to be greeted (and feel damn awkward) by six or so of the girls we have to walk by as they eye us. We buy our overpriced drinks and watch the show for a bit while I hound my buddy about getting a dance. I ditch him and get a dance before he does. We go on and off getting dances throughout the night.. and leave around 0130..

Dilapidated

...Is how I feel.. why? Not saying I keep a lot to myself, I'd like to tell someone but it isn't appropriate.

Anyways what I write in here could be a lot better.. I am eloquent just not here.. I usually just want to get it over with once I start writing-

Dooobie doobie dooooo

Well I didn't even finish what I wrote in my notebook :\ meh will at a later time..
Anyways I'm back off.. leaving in a few hours.. will write/call when I can

Take care!

10/13? On my way home..

-I'm typing this all from my notepad I had with me.. It covers a few days-

I get a ticket to home booked and dropped off to wait for the shuttle - or sit seems I was lead to believe.. So they're supposed to come at 0115.. but they don't show so I ask a different guy at the desk who told me I had to call and that they only take cash.
So he calls me a cab while I go to the ATM since I only have $35 with me. No dice with the ATM.. one I rarely use and the other I just got and haven't used int a month so I've forgotten the pin :(. Ugh now I feel stuck and there are no banks of mine in the area so.. I feel completely screwed. I re-book my flight and eat a $100 fee :X and the taxi shows up and almost leaves because I'm stuck on the phone with the airline.

I run out and no taxis is to be seen.. He then rounds the corner! which makes me just feel ok since I don't know if I have enough money. I ask if he takes credits cards (hey in LA they do!) "No". Now I think I'm really stuck :\ he ask me how much I have "35". He tells me it should only be 30. Yay! He gets me to the shuttle and we're at $28! I top him a few bucks and had spent two on a computer to look up the airlines number earlier so now I have $1. Which is my horrible tip for the shuttle driver (the shuttle place took credit cards).. That sucked.. a lot! One of my ATM cards - primary is locked from too many wrong tries.. on my other I have one more try... FAIL wrong for the third time that card is probably frozen! Woooo go Skams!

I still have my trusty credit card but having no access to cash feels.. really.. bad.. My flight to Vegas is now 20mins late.. (I'm going Atlanta - Vegas - LA!) I'd gamble a few bucks.. if I had any :\. If you've gotten a letter from me this has got to be dreadful to read after what's gone on with me. I don't know what to say my luck just hasn't been good at all lately. I keep thinking I've gotta win the lotto or something after all the stuff that has gone on.. I talked with my recruit awhile ago and asked if he's had anyone with close to this many problems.. He hasn't had anyone even close :X. Oh Oh kind of random and out of place.. I'm getting some fun stares - my left arm in between my elbow is purple from needles and IVs and my left eye has a burst blood vessel towards my nose right next to my pupil. I also have a wonderful raw rope burn on my left leg but I've got pants on so everyone doesn't get to stare at it like at basic. It's like 4"x15".. wait even better:



It looks worse in person.. my camera sucks

10/10 Convalescent leave

-I'm typing this all from my notepad I had with me.. It covers a few days-

Today was exciting.. I wasn't feeling good (fever) but didn't want to miss out more by going to sick call. But it came to the point where I thought it was getting dangerous and a buddy that felt my forehead was prodding me to get my temp taken. So I did.. my drill sergeant acted as if I was overreacting and was slow about it. Then he got his reading - 103 then he took it again to make sure and 103 again! Woooo! Ice sheets for me (the Army takes bed sheets and sticks them in ice for these situations). One sheet around your head, one in each armpit, on in the groin (thank god the soldier helping stuffed it in between my legs instead of on my.. groin) and the last sheet gets draped over you.

Makes ya feel freezing cold for about 10mins then the sheets start to get warmer. Next my drill sergeant put a rubber band around my arm to start an IV but is complaining "You ain't got no fucking veins private! fuck" He takes the band off and puts it back on and is slapping my arm to get the veins to come out... then he starts to take the IV needle out and tells me he might miss. So I'm hoping EMS gets there before he can try... and they do! He tells me "you're lucky private I would had fucked you up!" (this is in a funny tone). So good ol' EMS shows up and walks my dizzy and now shirtless self to the ambulance. They take my temp again 104.6! Oh ya! So then I get taken to the hospital where I wait for 2 or so hours before I'm seen at all (wts?).

Bleh so besides that I got stuck in the infirmary again and for two days.. I hate that place with a passion. It makes you know how old people in bad nursing homes feel. It's like jail kind of and if you have a temp over 99 you can't leave even if you're supposed to D: . So come my second day I have a temp but I want to get out of this place badly. So! cold shower it is! and I wake up every four hours to take my meds in and effort to get out. However when it's time to get my temp taken I know I still have a fever.. So i put the thermometer on the edge of my tongue - 98.5! Oh ya!
I get out and my drill sergeant starts working on sending me home----- will continue...


(I just like this song no meaning behind putting it in here :P )
