Individual Body Maintenance (IBM)

I would’ve been well rested during ICT what with all the afternoon (and some morning) naps, but the last two days of training put paid to that.

So, this weekend, I went to the dentist and got the barnacles scraped off my pearly not-so-whites, got a G.I. George haircut, contemplated a facial and toyed with the idea of going for a foot-massage/pedicure before deciding to wash my car (myself). I now have short hair, white teeth and a shiny black car.

This weekend also, my platoon mates Dilbert shopped ‘with the missus’, David (not his real name) probably spent a lot of time at work and then with his girlfriend, while I am afraid to know if Sgt Foreskin is still contemplating a circumcision.

Work beckons like a stampede in the morning, and I wish I could say I was looking forward to it. But before then, a little more frivolity (via Indian Stallion via Mr Brown):

I swear I dunno how the last song got into my computer. Virus!

With spare masking and insulation tape, the enterprising men of Bravo Combat Team Platoon 7 began offering services not normally considered part of regimental tradition.
