Yesterday, just before we got off work, all E-4s were informed that we had a pt test this morning. Urgh. So not only do I fail the pt test, but I fail it spectacularly. As in, Oh-my-Gods-what-have-you-done-to-my-body-I-want-it-back!
Not to mention that my grader was a real pain in the ass, and even though I did about 25 pushups, he only counted 6. 6!!!! I have never failed the pushups! I finally gave up, since he wasn't going to give me a break and actually count any of them.
Then I failed the situps, again, which just pissed me off, because I have been working on them for about a month.
And to top it all off, I failed my tape. Which means they are probably going to kick me out of the Army, see ya, don't let the door hit you on the way out.
I am miserable, sore, and just want to crawl into bed and forget this whole day happened.
And I still have to go to work.
Meh.

I was once involved in validating physical tests for firefighting recruits. It was pretty brutal stuff but one of the things they were looking at was how to fairly measure the fitness demanded by the job without unfairly keeping women out. I don't know how fair or not your army tests are but I hope they don't kick you out when you could do a bangup job in some position that doesn't require the ability to do 30 pushups.

Thanks, sweety. I understand the need to be fit and healthy, but the fact that I was doing the pushups and he didn't count them really pissed me off. Oh, well.
By the way, I did 6 miles on the rowing machine yesterday, and let me tell you, you are my new hero. I have no idea how you did that for 24 hours. Wow.
