Staying Late

Since I took Monday off for a long weekend, I had to work longer days this last week. Since I don’t get into the office until 10 normally, it would be easy to come in early. Unfortunately, I didn’t. I didn’t get to bed early enough Monday night to go in early Tuesday. Therefore, I chose to stay an hour late (meaning I don’t get off til 6, home til 6:30). Since I got home so late, I had dinner late and go into bed late, again. Therefore, I couldn’t wake up early enough to go in early on Wednesday. This continued on all week long, until it is now 7:15 on Friday**, and I haven’t had dinner yet.

Though an hour is easier in the evening instead of the morning, because I can sleep in, it makes the evening feel really short. Even worse, I’m tired in the evenings.

Hopefully I remember this analysis on staying late, and learn from it. Next time when I work four days a week, I should wake up early! There are good things: my coworkers often stay late, so I’m not alone. I like being in the office late. It is still light out, and after daylight savings time, that won’t even be an issue.

Anyway, my goal is to get a good night’s sleep tonight so daylight savings time and the like doesn’t mess me up. Tomorrow I am going to go shopping and tidy up my room and hopefully to a little work around my apartment. I’m going to hang out with Rachael tomorrow night and go to church the next morning. Sunday afternoon Lindsay and I are going to hang out. And finally, Sunday night I’m hoping to make enough soup to feed me lunch for the next week. It sounds like a good weekend to me, but won’t go well if I sleep in in the mornings!!
