Scarred for life

Not much to write about today. Slow day of meetings and paperwork, boring 8 hour watch, now it's almost 2am and I'm going to go see if there's anything left at 'rats to snack on. I did get my Anthrax shot today--upper left arm close to the small pox shot site. Now I'm standing by for the knot that always grows at the shot site (this was my 6th Anthrax shot, but my first one in about 7 years). The knot will grow to the size of a "shooter" marble (yeah, that's the big one), and will stick around for a couple weeks then slowly goes away. Just when the pox scar was starting to blend in. Sheesh. I'm not sure that pox scar will ever quite go away. A permanent reminder of this cruise. Who needs tatoos?

Tomorrow should be interesting... definitely different.
