Busted Knee

Day 14 19 June 02 Tuesday

Today started with a nice P.T. of running. It was great. We had pace cars again so it really wasn't. Breakfast for some reason was really good even though it was the same as always. After our 1st class today, we got our break and as we were running back to the barracks, I hit some grass with some dew on it and slipped to my knee. I busted up my left knee on the sidewalk and tore my BDU. It kills.

Well, later I was finally issued my dork glasses and I must say they look stellar. We spent most of the day in classes which were boring. We have been smoked a lot which is good, I'm glad that we are because it only makes us stronger. I got a letter (very short I might add) from my mother today. She sent me my registration for S.A. next year. So yeah, everything is going pretty good. There have been moments that have tested my patience due to stupidity and there have been some heated battles between some of the guys but its all good. I got to go, it's getting late. Oh, about my knee, most people who 'get hurt' go to the hospital or sick call but I don't want to. It hurts really bad to bend it so I know running is going to hurt but I'll manage. Somehow I always do. G'dnight all.
