My good intentions of turning out at 5 were no good anyway, for I slept in until nearly 6:30. After spuds drill we had battery drill. Ran off a few strings on #6 and then loafed the rest of the morning. Aired bedding again - I wish those mumps would disappear - vanish, in other words. Had a lecture and prob on pilot navigation. The lecture was interesting and gave us the impression that the prob. would be fruity - but when we started working on the prob that impression soon left us. I'm not going swimming today. Spent a pleasant hour in the eyes of the Ship tonight - Maggie's room is no more - for us. These youngsters 'boob' everything.
