New Job: Day two

02:10 am: New Job: Day two
Home again, home again, diggedy digg.

I left work at one-forty this morning, as opposed to midnite last night. These gonna be some funky hours to get used to. Especially since I'm at work at the time I'm normally home to do a couple important things like take a prescription & feed Hydra. Oh! (Note to self: contact Sheree about fish.) I could be happier with different hours but rumor has it Friday's are common to early releases.

Today I arrived early for orientation & filled out a bunch of paperwork before promising to take a bunch more home to read before work tomorrow. And as soon as that sentence ended my attention not merely drifted but immediately sparked away to about three other things. I don't think now is a good time to finish this update. I'm a little stressed & a lot tired & I should probably just relax, get something to eat & prepare for sleepytimes. I just realized I'm going on four hours sleep after close to a 10 hour shift so naturally reality can start to get a tad disjointed at this point.

Cripes, I can't wait to get Bit Generations.

Addendum:
Something a little more interesting & noteworthy: there was a civil rights rally in Austin TX last friday that was protested by a special interest group. I'm a little torn because I feel for both parties involved. I really don't know which side to take. (Link)

stressed

Current Music: heart thudding

It's a pretty tough call, but I'm siding with the pirates on this one simply because I like their slogan: "The walking dead oughta walk the plank!"

Anyway, since I didn't say it before, congrats on and good luck with the new job! It's about damn time somebody decided to hire you.

Thank you. I certainly need the luck.

I was going to invite you to the A&W in Edgerton for lunch on Saturday but I may need the time to rest. But then, it in & of itself could be considered rest so I haven't ruled it out entirely. What say ye?

I'm certainly interested. You're at work right now, right? I'll tell you what: either reply to me with the time you want me to show up, or call me tomorrow morning. I may be up earlier, but I'd say I expect to be conscious around 10 or so.

Let's say noon. That'll give us plenty of time for a leisurely lunch & whatnot afterward. I'd like to be done by five tho' as I'm attending Anime Club too. But on to lunch!

The reason I suggested this specific A&W which is a little out of the way is because it is the only one in the area I know of that still has car hop service. Since it is a bit of a drive & we'd likely be dining in the car as well (if only for the novelty) I thought it would be a great opportunity to share some music so please feel free to bring plenty along. (I've lately been remembering our late-nite drive some years ago when I introduced you to "Pictures at an Exhibition".) My car doesn't seem to like your burned CDRs so I suggest regular CDs or your MP3 player if you do bring something.

Please give a call before you leave the house just in case I sleep through my alarm again. The new job has been pretty exhausting.
