A return from extinction
/ooc Making some assumptions, I don't see where you really track the day/month/year anywhere. I am just sort of working on a day-to-day story for a few "days" in game like you mentioned.

Laying in bed, the dream still vivid in his mind's eye, Reid closed his eyes and tried to clear his head which didn't work as he'd intended. Rather than clear his mind of visions he could not begin to fathom, his feelings turned toward that ever-present, "something" that was coming, the ever-present itch that seemed to have come out of nowhere that made him uncomfortable. This "almost" itch that no scratching could get rid of seemed to be building, getting worse, or rather, more intense.
Finally getting up, he tossed on some gym clothes and headed down to get his morning workout in. Typical was a mile on the treadmill, 15 min on the stair climber, situps, pushups, mountain climbers, burpees, and then a round of weights. Reid wasn't religious about lifting but he did want to keep in shape, enjoyed how it made him feel and liked looking good.
He had hoped it would help with the unease he had started feeling but if anything, it made it worse the harder he worked. Eventually giving up, he showered and headed back to his apartment to change. Today he was doing a ride-along with the sheriff's department and as it was Thursday, it was lady's night at the club so Reid and the boys had plans.
Arriving at the Sheriff's department, Reid met the actual Sherrif, Javier Salazar and was briefed on what to expect and then introduced to the deputy he'd be riding with, Sheriff's deputy Lacy McGuire. Lacy was a six-year veteran of the Sheriff's department and was one of the few female officers they employed. She was also an outreach officer and union representative. Reid sat through their morning briefing with her and joined her at her squad car. It was 0800 when they rolled out into the early Texas day that promised to be a hot one, forecast for no clouds and a high in the upper 90's.
