Work Sucks!

This past week was kind of stressful for me. Early in the week I found out that I'll be working the afternoon shift, 3-11pm, starting next month and last thru the end of September. I absolutely hate working afternoons and the thought of wasting all that Summer sunshine pains me greatly. Consequently, for the last week I was the biggest bitch around the house that I've ever been. I'm sure Vic was afraid to breathe around me for fear of setting off on a screaming tirade. But now that I've had time to think about it, I still hate it, but will do my best to adapt. Working sucks!

We headed downtown Saturday to check out the Home & Garden show. What a big disappointment. The emphasis was too much on home and not enough on garden. It was held inside Ford Field (where the Lions play), so at least we finally got to see what the inside of the stadium looks like. (Every football game is sold out.) Afterwards we headed over to an Irish bar that turned out to be just like every other bar, but with paper shamrocks taped all over the walls. We also stopped in the casino, lost $20 in 10 mins. and got the hell outta there before we lost any more. It was a nice afternoon for walking around, so even though the day wasn't a raging success, I'm glad we got out for a bit.

Why are they changing your schedule? At least you'll be on the same schedule as Vic! We have plenty of openings on the midnight shift at the ECSO!!!
