Burned out...
May. 22nd, 2009 08:28 amI'm still tired. I ended up working overtime yesterday at the last minute, because one the good captains needed an SPO and we were really short...so I worked 13 hours yesterday.
(I don't do this often; I burned out on long shifts when I was a noobie guard, and just don't have the stomach for it as a regular diet. My personal record is 17 hours in a day and 10 days in a row...but I know guards who've done 35 days in a row, just to show they could. I just don't have that kind of self-destructive streak in me...)
So to sum up--man, I'm tired...
But I got 9 hours of sleep last night, and it's a beautiful day. I've fed the Bunneh, taken out the trash, cleaned the bathroom. I've got tea and the computer. And today is going to go veeeeeery sloooooooooowly, because I say so. Let the 4-day weekend commence!!
