Sleepless in Glendale
October 25th, 2006 . by CaryThe off-shoot of not getting enough sleep is, of course, the dragging feeling that you experience about two hours into your work day.
(I am writing this at work, on break; I will e-mail it to myself and then post it tonight. Or tomorrow morning, if I get up early enough. Hah! That was a joke, son, you’re supposed to laugh right there…)
Even the Nectar of the Gods, the Elixir of Youth, good old C*ca C*ola, can’t seem to perk me up right now. Maybe I should go out in the shop and use the table saw without a guard – that usually gets the blood pumping pretty quick. At least, it gets the brain juices flowing, which is what I really need, since my job is mostly staring at a computer screen and printing reams of paper for the shop.
I’m kidding – I wouldn’t run a saw without a guard!
God bless you all, Wear Red on Fridays, and get in on the Baby Pool!
Not much you can do on days like that….except hope for a bit of excitement.
I did laugh after you told me too.
My brain doesn’t work well in the morning.
Come to think of it, it doesn’t work well in the afternoon either.
They doing brain transplants yet? I think the one I got is getting worn out. Too full of radical right wing talk show stuff I guess.
I hate mornings. I’ve worked nights for over 16 years and it just kills me to get up early. It’s 0345 here now. I’ll be getting off work in about 2 hours and heading off to bed….. just about the time all of you are getting up to go to work!!
Maybe I should switch to nights?
Nah – we only run the one shift at work, so that would be pointless.
Quiet, but pointless.
