Yup...it's true. I'll be up at the crack of dawn AGAIN on Monday! Why God, why?!?
I know why and the answer is simple...I'm easy. Fortunately, I am NOT free! I will be training the final early morning class of Management of Aggressive Behavior in the wee hours of the morning at work tomorrow. And just to pour an ample amount of salt in my wound, it IS supposed to be my day off!
It's nearly 9:45PM on Sunday right now...I'm still up posting on a blog...I'll probably STILL be up until my "usual" bedtime, which falls somewhere between midnight and 3:00AM. The good news (if one can call it "good") is, with such little sleep in the morning, I will remain blissfully unaware and unconcerned about the training attendees...at least not until around 10:00AM when I actually DO wake up. LOL
We also have the first round of good-bye parties for DP, my retiring boss. But, of course, this will not start at the office until 2:00PM (when I would normally be reporting for work if I was SUPPOSED to be at work...and not home ON MY DAY OFF!)...this means I will "linger" (or malinger...just depends) at the office following our training, which ends at noon. There's always lunch to eat, but two hours is a long time to kill when sleep deprived...sort of makes me WANT to kill instead.
I cannot seem to get that totally stupid sleep aid commercial out of my head right now as I type...you know the one. Lunesta. By tomorrow evening I'll most likely be wishing I had some of that, except MY drug would be spelled "Loonesta"...fitting, eh?
Off now to prepare to go to bed so I can stare at the ceiling and chastise myself for my "simple" ways...

I find your writing as fresh as an Easter morning! And I am Jewish !!!
ReplyDeleteI read your blog every day so I figured I’d say hi and wave friendly from Connecticut ( looking like a tundra now , with negative readings on the thermometer ), so HI !!!
ANONYMOUS: If that really IS your name! LOL
ReplyDeleteWell, "howdy"...so nice of you to entertain me with a comment on Cheese! And no need to feel slighted in any way regarding Easter morning...BrainCheese is an equal-opportunity-mocking-of-all-possibilities forum! LOL I'd like to think because of this, EVERYONE feels welcome (?!?)...
But I'd also like to live in a fantasy world and pretend I am still asleep at 7:00AM and not heading out the door to "toss trolls" at work (uh, that would be referencing the trainees at the workshop I'm about to teach)...
Oy Vey!

You couldn't be more right regarding your "note to self". If it's any consolation, I slept like crap last night and thought about what sleep remedy I wished I'd had. I think "Loonesta" would be fitting for me as well...
ReplyDeleteMISS CHRIS:
ReplyDeleteYeah, that helped...imagining YOU couldn't sleep, too worked great! NOT But I do appreciate the comradery on some sick level...LOL
