Seriously... I'm really glad I'm on a small task force a couple hundred miles away from all my brass.

 

hey RR how are you man, have not seen you in a while?
is it getting hot all the time there now?

 

No, it's still freezing cold at night. What have you been up to?

 

working and school same as usual, no fun for me....at least it is staying warmer here with some regularity and the days are longer it makes it cool again

 

I know how you feel. Between running missions, doing correspondance courses, and studying for the promotion board, my brain hurts. They had to put me on ansleep aid (which is actually an anti-psychotic...God I love theArmy)just so that I can shut my brain off for a few hours a day and go to sleep.

 

*** dude an antipsycotic, those are serious, ask for more beer, not a pill

 

They don't give beer over here. Life would be grand if they did. I thought it was kind of strange too. It really doesn't affect me, other than letting me sleep, but that does make me kind of uneasy. Then again, I'm sure if I got shot in the toe, they'd just rub some aloe vera on the back of my neck. I'll be done with this promotion board soon. When that's over, a lot of the stress that I'm under will be gone, and I might be able to sleep on my own again.

 

get your wife to mail you melatonin -- its the same chemical your brain produces that tells it to go to sleep - i had insomnia in highschool and taking a tripple dose of that solved the problem. its also non addicting. it actually helped train my brain back into producing it. can get it at the local drug store in the vitamin section usually.

 

It's funny you should say that, because I just talked to my dad a couple of nights ago, and he told me the same thing.

 

Harsh man, I had an alergic reaction to a drug when I was a kid, and I used to list it as a drug allergy till I found out it was an Antipsychotic that hasnt been used in like 15 years, so I dont tell my doctors about that anymore, avoids too many questions. I get enough of those from the voices.
