It was all a mirage

I went to Dothan today with out the rest of the gang for a few things. I started driving back and soon darkness failed. As I drove down the street to the Daleville gate, I started looking around. I realized that at night the town seems so peaceful and somber. There are bright lights everywhere distracting you from the real world. Then during the day time it is a totally different place. Run down buildings with broken windows line the streets, with store upon store of used crap. We live in this mirage of a space. Flanked by three towns, with nothing more to offer than who has the best Wal-Mart. 

I thought about going to go food today, and then shortly realized that would be suicide as today is pay day. I can just imagine the checkout line wrapped around the entire store. Wal-Mart about the same. So instead we went to the PX and walked around. Fun Fun.
