Insomnia

So recently i have been staying up late nights mostly due to my 2 week vacation from anything Marine Corps related meaning no early early morning pt sessions. Don't get me wrong pt here has it's advantages but 2 weeks off was fine by me the only running i did the whole time was to Seven 11 in the rain so i didn't get as wet as i would have if i had walked. Don't get me wrong i hate running but when it comes to rain i'd rather just run and be kinda wet then walk and get soaked. Over the break i made continuous stops to seven 11 just to do something to keep from being constantly bored and to do something other than just laying in bed trying to sleep. Although i get bored while on vacation it is always nice to spend that time with family and friends, helping out my little sis making our churches youth room look nice by painting the walls and stripping and refinishing the floors. Other than getting that work done over the break i also spent a lot of time playing back yard golf with my siblings, which consists of whoever wants to play getting a golf ball and putter and going out into the back yard to the makeshift hole/cup, then starting with the oldest picking teeing off spot somewhere in the yard. Every hole is a par 5 and we usually get through about 3 or 4 holes before we have to stop for some reason. After playing over and over again in the yard it led one day to a local putt putt unlike any that i had ever been to before. The difference between this putt putt and others i've been to in my life, for one it was indoors, and two it was all black lights. As you can see in the picture it was all creepy so scary that it was even creeping some of the little kids out who were also playing there. I have to admit i didn't really think it was gonna be that great of an experience but spending this kinda time playing games with my brothers and working alongside my sister are things that i sometimes take for granted but they are the kinds of things that i enjoy looking back on and reminiscing about the good times. Although i enjoy the time while i'm at home what i really love is the drive too and from maryland because i get to spend it with the most beautiful girl who i Love and love doing everything with. Taking an * hour drive anywhere used to seem so boring but spending all that time with her time just talking and listening to music is always one of my favorite parts of the journey. I know that the title of this post is only a little to do with the full story but i thought it would intrigue readers to read it. It does fit in with everything though cause as i lay awake at night these are what i think about.
