ITT: I sleep like no other.

I don't think I've ever had a schedule like this before. One that is so jam packed with stuff that I spend almost every free moment sleeping. And I have come to hate the non-stop midget trackmeet upstairs with a burning passion. For the unknowing, there are multiple small children that occupy the apartment right above my room. AND THEY RUN AROUND ALL THE FUCKING TIME. That's all they do, I swear. They eat, shit, and run on top of my room. Sometimes taking the time to squeeze in a few pounding jumps right over my head. So I come back from my 8AM ground lab with huge-assed bags under my eyes, hoping to catch a nap before my turbines class, and they're all like AAAAARGH I'M A'GONNA RUIN YOUR DAY! And I imagine myself stomping up there like some quasi-jack and the beanstalk giant going "FEE FI FO FUM, I'M GONNA FUCKING KILL YOU". Or something to that effect.

Anyways, reverse tangent, back to the schedule. It's busy. The hardest part is getting up for an 8AM after I get back from hockey practice at about 12:30AM. And I don't know about most people, but after I work out I usually can't sleep for at least an hour afterwards. So I get to bed at around 1 if I'm lucky, 6 hours of sleep later, I'm up for the entire day. Plus Naval Aviation Club is starting up again tonight. We have our first meeting tonight at 7. Luckily that's only every 2 weeks. Speaking of the Navy, I just recieved my first round of forms I have to fill out for my officer applications. Those are going to take some time to fill out. Bah.

As far as flying goes, I was supposed to finish up my instrument the other night. I was actually pretty excited as I drew a check pilot that I had had previously and liked. Too bad god went ahead and smited my efforts once again. Twenty knot winds aloft were good enough for me to say screw it. I only get one chance at this, and I'm not doing an NDB approach in that kind of wind. So what ended up happening is I got back on the schedule with some other guy I know nothing about tomorrow. If you've had Walter Barry for a checkflight here at Riddle and you're reading this... IM me and tell me how he was.

Other than that, playing a lot of pool lately. I'm actually getting pretty good at it and starting to really enjoy it. I usually shoot a few racks in between classes when I need a break, and on weekends if I'm not at the apartment there's a pretty good chance I'm at Brown's Billiards on Nova. I need a new shaft for my cue, as it's taken quite the banana. All in all it's a nice learning cue though, and I got it for "free". I'll throw a picture of it in here sometime.

"I think this matches your season, Pedro."
