    *I didn't keep very good records... so I am likely missing stuff. If there was a doubt, I went on the conservative side. I am still refining this & checking sources. *

    Scheduling for these trips was absolutely insane! I has things scheduled & timed down to the wire. I would often bring my luggage to work, go on a trip & leave for work again, straight from the airport. Motto: Sleep? We don't need no stinking sleep! I ran on adrenaline. Mom was right, I was burning the candle at both ends - not just here & there but always. Foodwise I ate as healthy as possible, cause I could not afford to get sick. Sleep was more often than not, a luxury I rarely indulged in. Each week I'd come back from my weekend, take a few days to recover, go out Wednesday night (Barcode) before work, take a few days to prepare for the next trip. I can't believe how incredibly run down I allowed myself to get...

    *I didn't keep very good records... so I am likely missing stuff. If there was a doubt, I went on the conservative side. I am still refining this & checking sources. *

    Scheduling for these trips was absolutely insane! I has things scheduled & timed down to the wire. I would often bring my luggage to work, go on a trip & leave for work again, straight from the airport. Motto: Sleep? We don't need no stinking sleep! I ran on adrenaline. Mom was right, I was burning the candle at both ends - not just here & there but always. Foodwise I ate as healthy as possible, cause I could not afford to get sick. Sleep was more often than not, a luxury I rarely indulged in. Each week I'd come back from my weekend, take a few days to recover, go out Wednesday night (Barcode) before work, take a few days to prepare for the next trip. I can't believe how incredibly run down I allowed myself to get...
