Getting back to “normal”

Inventory is finally done. And I couldn’t be happier. Ironically as soon as I started getting used to working all night long, and pretty much sleeping all day, it was time to switch it back up to waking up at 4:45AM and working all day, and hoping to sleep all night. I am so glad I don’t have a regular graveyard shift. While it was sometimes fun, it wasn’t THAT fun. And it doesn’t matter how long you sleep during the day, it is just not the same. My room wasn’t dark enough and my internal clock kept clashing with my tired body because it was like 9am and there I was trying to fall asleep. Once I fell asleep it was really hard to wake up for the day. But it’s over and life is going back to normal. Well…whatever normal is.

The weekend is almost here. Any plans? My weekend would’ve been tomorrow and Saturday, but my brilliant self asked to come in for a few hours tomorrow. So I’ll only have Saturday off. Oh well. I want to finish my weekly workload and the thought of a few extra dollars is really nice. I do wish I was off on Sunday though. Thankfully I’m finally starting to make plans with friends though! So I’m looking forward to FINALLY hanging out with my friend Ashley on Saturday. Then I’ll be grabbing lunch with my friend Amy sometime next week. Also making plans to go to the State fair and maybe the local County fair too. We shall see!

Tomorrow as soon as I am done with my short work day I’m going to upgrade my phone. Woohoo! I’ll never be cool enough to own an iPhone but I do get to be cool enough to own an Android once again heh. I’m so ready to be rid of the really cheap phone I got when I first switched cell providers. And the company I’m with is running a nice promo right now so…. a little reward for the insane hours I’ve been working, and the fact that I was patient and waited for a better bargain, I’m getting a new phone. Yay for that! And then I think I’ll treat myself to lunch somewhere. Not sure where yet. I don’t want to stick with the food court, but knowing how I’ll probably not want to walk anyway…. that’ll probably be what I choose. Oh well. I’m going to have a good day and a great weekend!

Oh! Guess what I get to do at work next week? I get to break stuff :) AND get paid for it! Are you curious? hehehe!!

Inventory

Oh, the joys of working in the retail industry. In about three hours, I’ll be heading to work to do my first overnight shift. It’s Inventory Time! I get to work from 9pm-6am tonight/tomorrow. And then tomorrow night/Saturday I work from 10pm-6am, or actually, to be specific, until we get what we have to get done, each night. It could be 3am, it could be 7am. I’m glad I’m getting lots of extra hours this week, AND holiday pay which I was totally under the impression that I wouldn’t get. I definitely am. My only concern is transportation. I might be waiting outside by myself for a couple hours until my ride can come. But I’m hoping if it gets to that point, someone will be nice enough to bring me home. I don’t really care to sit outside our store, in the cold, and in the middle of the night, alone. But we’ll see. Tonight will be a learning experience. I know I’m going to be tired. I kept trying to figure out how I should be prepare. Try to stay up all night and sleep all day, or just wing it. I guess I’m just winging it because I was asleep before 3 and slept until 11. I’m not stressing over it. I’ve pulled all nighters before. I can surely do it again!

Hello 2012

And here we go with a brand new year. Happy New Year everyone! And with the start of a new year, is a new layout, and a secured mzkitteh.net for one more year! How has 2012 been treating you so far? Did you go out last night? I went to my sister in law’s sister’s house. It was fun sitting out by the fire, drinking yummy drinks, and roasting marshmallows. I didn’t have anyone to kiss but I also didn’t wake up with a hangover this morning. Yeah! I didn’t really drink that much anyway. But since I don’t drink hard liquor much anymore I’m never sure how it’s going to hit me. But I was fun and I had a nice time. I hope you all did too!
Do you make new year’s resolutions?
