Although I'm disabled and haven't worked in 10 years, I still wait in anticipation for the weekend and dread Mondays. I guess it was drilled into me after so many years of being able to work it's become ingrained behavior.

[Drejk]

Yawn.

Morning.

[Kileanna]

Morning. I'm sleepy.

[gran rey de los mono]

Hi Sleepy. Where's Bashful and Doc?

[Calex]

Hi. Been awhile!
Injured my knee at work- put on modified lite duties. Went in for re-assessment today, and put back on lite duties for another 28 days, plus told to begin some physio to aid in recovery. My back-up at work HATES doing my job- he only took the post as back-up thinking he'd get teh money, but as a back-up never have to actually DO the job. He's not gonna be pleased, especially when he finds out that, not only is he covering for my lite duty shifts, but 28 days just happens to co-inside with the number of days I have to go before I'm off on my week vacation in June...when he'll hafta sit in...as my back-up while I'm off..
I got a week scheduled off for every month of the summer. There's a good chance he might be so choked by September that I'll need to train a new vict...er...back-up come the fall.
>evil grin<
Poor prima donna..

[Sharoth]

Hey there Calex. Welcome back and I hope you heal quickly, but not too quickly.

[John Napier 698]

I've got the feeling that I'll be extremely busy for a while. On the order of eleven hours a day, every day busy. One of my fellow guards quit, and the other may or may not show. I may not post as much as I used to. So forgive me for the delays in postings.

[Patrick Curtin]

Hey all. Dropping in to say hi. Job hunt in full effect. Trying to stay on top of things. Did take the time to watch Guardians of the Galaxy II.

[Kileanna]

I'm sorry to hear that you are so busy John, but do what you have to do! We'll miss you!

It's not like I'm leaving. If one eleven-hour shift is tiring, imagine how exhausting a full week of them would be. Week after week, for about a month. Combined with insufficient amounts of sleep.

[Kileanna]

I hope I had to imagine it but I've lived it. I don't envy you.

My son got to see GotG2 already. On a school field trip! :/

I'm jealous. I never had field trips THAT cool when I was a kid!
(Oh, yeah, and I haven't gotten to see the movie yet either.) ;P

Luck with the hunt Pat! Be careful, those good jobs are wiley creatures! ;)

So, being a Security Guard has that much in common with being a Lab Assistant?

[Kileanna]

Nope. But I was a cook before.

Not for me. I usually awaken fully aware.

Oh, so the long days were from your time in the restaurant, then.

In the hospital the workers from some departments can trade their shifts with other people so they make a double shift (14 hours) but they do so to get some days off later.

With a Security career, it's like that, but without the days off later part.

[John Napier 698]

Okay, people. I'd like a show of hands. Everyone knows about the Gamemastery Combat Pad, right? The metal sheet you place magnets on, right? Who thinks that it's a good project to implement one in software?

[John Napier 698]

So, the morning guard didn't get relieved. That means that I'm going in early. I'll try to be back on-line later, but no promises.

[Drejk]

Another uncreative day comes to an end...

Time to bed.

It's almost 9:30 pm...

Quite recently it'd be start of real day for me, alas, no more.

[John Napier 698]

This will probably be my last set of posts until Friday. My hotspot time runs out tonight, and I get paid on Friday.

[Drejk]

Wakey-wakey...

Over 30 minutes too early.

Patrick Curtain, I would suggest applying at Wolfram and Hart. I use them all the time.

Reminds me, I might've stolen some 'inspiration' from that for my thursday game. The players saw 2 people transformed into a Bull & Stag fighting, upon later investigation they found the spells cast came from a Captain Beefheart record.

¬_¬ I don't think any of them got the pun, yet.

About that in NYC maybe more. So annoying. I used to really enjoy spring...

I did sit out in Madison Square Park today. Good bird watching so there's that. :-)

it looks like the wunian snow dance. Just backwards.

[Aberzombie]

It was a balmy....something or other here in Houston today. Maybe upper 80s? I honestly didn't bother to check. We had clouds though, and a bit of rain.

I do know it was 74 degF at 5:30 this AM. I always check before helping the children pick out their clothing for the day. Occasionally, we can have mornings that are cool enough they want to wear long pants. Although we'll see less and less of that as summer comes on.

[Storyteller Shadow]

It's 85 by me and it's damn near midnight.

Skipped Spring indeed,... ;P
