Woohoo! Finally, you can have some relax time. Where of course, you'll spend all of your time slaving away in the Canteen. (That's why we love ya too!)

I have 2 days where I get off 3 hours early. So, at 0600 I go lay down in my rack until my roomate wakes up so that I don't disturb her. Half of the time I fall asleep and just get up in time to go back to work.

You'd think with 12 whole hours, you could really DO stuff but I have to make an effort to do simple stuff like laundry, shop for essentials, etc. Today, I MAY go over to the PX.

Rain....? I've seen that in movies I think.

With 12 hours on you are lucky to find time to brush your teeth...

You have a wicked humor.. I like that.

LOL!!! I've done the 12 on/12 off thing when I worked on the North Slope, Prudhoe Bay (Alaska's oil field up north). I had to make myself set a time and just "do the laundry". And 12 off is never 12 off, as I'm sure you already know. Hehehe
