Today is Sunday of the 4th of July weekend. I've been to a party already at the Hospital. I didn't think I was gonna get to go to any party or church today because I had people knocking on my door at 0230am to prepare a briefing for early this morning. Of course, I stayed up a few more hours getting the briefing ready, then slept for 3 hours, then got up to go into the office to make the final preparations for the briefing. I was satisfied with the briefing with only 15 minutes to spare. But as we were getting the conference room setup for the guests, the guests cancelled. So I quickly went to church and arrived only about 15 minutes late. I went to the chow hall after church and found out they were passing out, free I might add, two Red Bulls apiece. This makes two days in a row so of course I grab my two cans of liquid crack, as Jay Leno calls it, and took it back to my desk. I really need help staying awake sometimes and this will really help or so they say. But look at the can, there is English and Arabic on the can.
The Hospital party yesterday evening was just what you see in the movies. Doctors and Nurses and Med Techs letting their hair down and having races with decorated stretchers. It was fun and it was an opportunity for all of them to relax. Water filled balloons filled the skies and I felt myself jumping thinking it was something else, if you know what I mean. So they quickly stopped that part of the fun since most of the people were reacting the same way I was, kinda freaking out. But still it was fun until, just like in the movies, a helicopter came in with patients and off they go, party over. But that was the first copper of the day so that is good they've been slow.
It's 2:00pm, it's Sunday and I'm tired and so I'm going to bed. That is that.
