Gotta find some grub.  Be back later.

Find some grub? Either youre not on a military base, or you havent figured out where the vending machines are. [:D]

I'm not on a military base. [:D] We're doing this school on a college campus. [:D] Unfortunately, we're the only ones here. No summer term. [:(]

I'm not on a military base. [:D] We're doing this school on a college campus. [:D] Unfortunately, we're the only ones here. No summer term. [:(]
Soooo...nothing 'interesting' to look at huh?[:D]

Unfortunately, no. Well, there is one runner who makes all our eyes giggle. [:D] No one can keep up with her though. [:'(]

Edit: change giggle to jiggle. [:D]
