Not all is bad though, I am reading a REALLY good book and the vending machine here is filled with Diet Pepsi and Klondike bars....so I'm good to go for many many hours on end. I mean really what the hell else do you need. That's right, I'm a healthy girl.
Today we'll be back home at 4pm, then back at midnight again...but this time we can leave at 8am because Jason won't be on shift anymore. Then it's just the normal OWL shifts for the next week and then people....
I AM DONE WITH SHIFTS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Poor Jason though will have some more weeks to do, but at least our schedule will only be shifts every third week instead of two weeks in a row and then a week off.
I believe there were plans for a CRU meet up on Sunday the 23rd. It will be a tight schedule for Jason and I, but can work around stuff to get that in. Just thinking about other options....what are people doing on Monday the 24th? Perhaps and after work gathering somewhere? If not we can stick with Sunday.
***editor's note: it looks like people are coming from out of town for the meet up, so let's stick with Sunday. Now we just need a plan. I am going to see if Jason can move his Monday 12-8am shift to Thursday......then we can get everything in...if that happens obviously the below changes to Thursday night....have I made this all too confusing?***
Also perhaps a celebratory beer on Wednesday night? I want to celebrate being done with these shifts since they have consumed the last 4 months of my life and on Wednesday Jason won't have to go in at midnight for a shift....just a thought if anyone out there reading this is interested let me know.

no i totally want both. in fact i neeeeed it :-) The garmin does not work with the mac yet. You could do the bootcamp thing but you have to have a window's XP disc with service pack 2 on there...which i don't. However, I noticed this the other day on one of the geeky sites that I peruse :

which i think looks so interesting.
Hey...you can move it. I booked a room at the Congress for this Sunday night. I debated staying Monday night too...but...regardless I will be there Sunday to Monday. I could possible stay over on Monday too...but whatever...now I'm rambling. I'll email some of you all when it gets closer. :-)
rabbit-
no i think that sunday will be fine. I think Jason and I will run as part of our commute (running home from the train station downtown....ooh gives me a chance to check out garmin in the big downtown buildings) and then we'll sleep for a little bit and should be ready to go by latish afternoon. See you Sunday! Jason will have to go to work...but I don't :-) hee hee!
After I read you posts, I always find myself tired. I am so amazed that you both manage to work those crazy shifts, train and do everything else in day-to-day life. Absoultely amazed!
josh-
yes this weekend is crazy...but we aren't running. just working and sleeping and commuting. we'll be back into running starting on Tuesday morning....it's been so long I wonder how to do it...one foot in front of the other right?
I would love to come to the CRU meet up - I have a Continuing Ed class until 4 pm on Sunday in the burbs. But, if I can't there I would love to celebrate with you and Jason and Wednesday.
Great to have you back.
I'd come downtown on Sunday - if I can find a way to "break away" from the in-laws, who will be visiting. Not sure if the wife will give the green light. *Sigh*
I hate long shift and odd ones too. I totally feel for both of you. I hope you get some rest soon.
