Another month in the dark

I was up until 6AM watching bad television and bits and pieces of movies. I tried to keep myself entertained throughout the night and I also tried to keep myself jacked up on caffeine so I could keep on keeping on. Why subject yourself to late night torture? I’m heading back to working graves for the next month so I’ve got to do some adjusting.

I always hate the first few days trying to adjust to the right sleep schedule. Its hard enough trying to stay up all hours of the night when your options are limited. My diet gets whacked for a few days as I stay constantly hungry. I don’t sleep well and for the first time this year its warm outside so it doesn’t make for the best sleeping conditions. The upside is that it has stopped raining for the moment so at least I’m not by myself while the weather is gloomy (thus dampening my mood). It was my turn to do nights and luckily for us we’ve got an actual schedule so that I know that it will only be a month and that it will rotate around.

My plan is to stay busy. I hope to leave dayshift with no work – no work whatsoever. I think I can do it. It’s the only way I’m going to stop myself from falling asleep at my desk.
