I have a sore throat tonight – part of the cold I’ve been battling. It feels worse now because I haven’t had anything to drink for a few hours because no one has come in to give me a break. My soda is in the refrigerator in the breakroom.
Have a bad headache too but that is from all the computer work I’ve been doing tonight. I think I am finally done and can sit back to relax the rest of the shift now except for whatever the guys call in. Hopefully they will keep it to a minimum.
I get off at 7am and need to go home to pack a few things for my trip to Des Moines. I will have to do a load of laundry, get the dogs packed up to take to my son’s house, go get the car and be back to work by 3 pm. Not going to get much sleep till I get off at 11pm tomorrow night. I will have to be up about 5:30 to be on the road by 6am so I can make sure I get to the class in plenty of time – it starts at 8am. Hmmm…maybe I should be up at 5am.
We were told the parking spots are extremely limited so it is first come first served. I figure if I can get there early everyday than there won’t be a problem. Of course, I’m sure everyone is thinking that way. Would like to check into the hotel first but can’t because checkin isn’t until noon. Always something.
I’m not looking forward to this class – I don’t know why. I was before but not now and I think the difference is that I’m so tired right now. Going means trying to change my sleep patterns again so I can stay awake in class – I don’t understand the people who think changing sleep patterns is so easy. It takes me weeks to get use to a new schedule. Guess I’ll be drinking a lot of caffeine.
