Working early in the morning sucks, when you're used to not working very early. Case in point-- I've been off all this past week for a paid vacation and have today as a day off, so obviously I've been sleeping in each day. In a cruel, horrible twist of fate our boss is going on vacation this week, and so that she can get out of work early tomorrow, she needs my help.

So normally I would open the store at 9. Tomorrow, I need to be there at 7, meaning I need to be up by 6. That's simply evil, particularly when I've been going to bed at 2 or 3 AM in the morning each night this week and getting up at 11.

Needless to say, I am not looking forward to work tomorrow--with the exception of the fact that I should be out of there fairly early in the day, possibly before 12. And I'll be tired tomorrow night, so going to bed early tomorrow shouldn't really be a problem, you know?

Tonight however...we're closing in on midnight and I still feel pretty darn awake. Already, I'll be going to work with six hours of sleep if I go to bed now. Couple that with my raging insomnia and the fact that I wasn't out of bed until fairly late this morning, and I have a feeling I'm flirting with disaster.

It's just one day, though. Truth be told, I'm worried they may have changed the schedule without telling me, or they're going to make me work longer and not tell me (Thus leaving me at work without my usual uniform, as I would typically work this in normal clothes.)

It also means there's a good chance that I'll have to work one 12 hour day this week, and...I'm not thrilled about that either. They, if you've never had one, are terrible.

I'm actually looking forward to moving, so I can have an excuse to change jobs. I'm tired of the horrible, horrible life of an Arcade 'Manager.'

In any case, off to do other things. Less than thirty minutes before I should go to bed. Hopefully I'll fall asleep soon! You should too. Later.
