Early Bird Special

As you can tell from the 6 and letters A and M in the time next to this post, my ass is up early today. It's because my work schedule is crazy-licious these days. And it's nobody's fault but my own. I was dedicated to the 3-Midnight shift and decided I wanted to move back into them mix and work a hodge podge of hours instead. So that means I work 1-10 one day, then 11-8 the next and then 7:45 AM to 5 the day after next, etc, etc, etc. This may explain my rather infrequent postings this week...I've been working hours that leave me with strange down time and to be honest, how many posts can I put up about my work day or about the latest episode of LOST ? My life has settled into a pretty boring pattern, one in which I primarily work and secondarily watch TV. I sprinkle in some web surfing and tada! it's a life.

Tonight I am free to party on like Wayne and Garth since I have a rare day off tomorrow, but my 5 hours sleep last night will mostly make having any fun tonight an unrealisitic goal. And besides I'm not sure what the hell people do for fun anymore anyway. Tomorrow does hold promise though in that my college roommate and his wife and new born daughter are cruising by Philly on their way back to Boston from West Virginia and want to allow me the honor of seeing their child for the first time. Another down side of my job right now is the lack of any sort of weekends off. Considering that I haven't made a trip further than the NE section of Philadelphia since September of last year, I'd have to say this is getting old. I feel like a shit not having gone up to Boston to see the kid, but work makes it so Baby Emma and for that I'm sorry. And to make me even more uncaring and selfish, I sure as hell have managed to book some time off in about a month to go to Vegas with the boys to raise hell, so again Baby Emma...I'm sorry. Uncle Skip is a real shit. Pleasure to meet you. Finally.
