This working nights thing isn't so bad, really. The only complaint I have is that it's hard to get anything else done. I'm not home and awake long enough to achieve much of anything. Today I'm not feeling well, so I've only been awake for a total of 3 hours. I don't work until 9:45, so I have hopes that maybe I can get something done. But I doubt it. I still need to finish answering potential interview questions, but that requires work. I'm just not feeling up to doing anything.
Yesterday, I had a wonderful run. It was just over two miles (apparently 2.44 miles, according to my Nike+ sensor). It wasn't a struggle; I felt good; and my knee didn't hurt! I think that's a win. I'm trying to run every other day, since that's similar to the training I'll be doing next semester. The Nike+ sensor is the coolest thing ever, and the wristband is awesome. I can plug it into my computer and upload my run. I can keep track of my runs, goals, motivation, etc. online. It's a lot of fun to play around with.
After my run, I went to Walmart to pick up some new headlights for my car. My brother informed me a few days ago that one of my headlights was out. I hadn't even noticed. I've always wished my lights were a bit brighter...and the light that was out was on the passenger side, so I could still see pretty well on my side. My dad told me to pick up a pair of lights so that they would glow the same. He put them in for me today, which is good because they DON'T come with instructions. Gah. How does anyone know how to do anything? I might be able to take it apart, but I'd never be able to put it back together!
Work was not exciting. Two nights ago, I was an auditor (with the rest of my team) but last night, I was a scanner...with a bunch of people I've never met. We aren't really supposed to chat a lot, but there are some pretty funny people working with me. It made the night amusing. Also, they've had snacks for us every night during our breaks. Each night, there has been a veggie tray and water...last night there were cupcakes too! It doesn't take much to make me happy. I worked from 7 pm to 4:30 am...bah. Got home at 5:30 and crawled into my bed...wide awake. I managed to fall asleep, but woke up at 11:30. Really, body? 6 hours of sleep is all you want? I don't think so. I was up until 2, and then I'm pretty sure it was the cold medication that made me feel like I was going to fall asleep on the couch....so I napped until 5. I'm still pretty tired, but I'm thinking maybe I got too much sleep? I just hope that I'm not too tired tonight at work.
Ok...off to go eat dinner, and then maybe be productive? Yeah, right.
