Patrol 2, Day 3

Well it's day 3. I did a lot yesterday. I pretty much worked endlessly the whole day. I've taken on a couple more projects just to keep my self busy and not focused on how much this can suck sometimes. So I've decided to help the PA officer on board to keep up with his PA'ly duties. I do the morning brief to the captain as well as a nightly message that goes out about all the things we did during the day, like boardings, or talking to fishermen and what not. It defiantly takes a lot of time...but it was the point. In the end I still go to bed at the same time, I still miss my wife just as much, and I still get to exercise. That time I think is the most important to me. It's only an hour but...man I can just be myself, listen to my music, and go at my own pace without a single person telling me...well anything. Just my feet running, my arms lifting, my friends talking to me in my ear, water and breathing, and I really never thought it would be that enjoyable. I still am able to go outside and take pictures, in fact more now and not just of boats. My video is coming along kinda slow but that's ok it's only day 3, I'm sure I'll get to it. What I'm probably going to do is video tape a whole bunch of stuff then splice and add music during our port call. I really want it to be something worth while and not just some stupid video to music. But I don't want it to be too...artsy fartsy. Well like I said it's only day 3. A much more refreshing day, in the end. I didn't feel so...cooped and tonight I feel I can go to bed...well...Accomplished.
