Today was rough. We had an automated tool totally break – resulting in me having to do way too much work all by hand. Major suckage. I spent a little while this evening after getting home reading a bunch of comics. It was a very necessary cool down from the stress earlier in the afternoon.

I have a smallish “backlog” that I think I’m going to put a dent in tomorrow. I’m working from home because I have some packages arriving that require signatures – and I luckily don’t have any serious work planned for the afternoon.

On Friday I have work starting around 10 that’ll last into the wee hours of Saturday. Monday is a holiday and then I have 3 nights next week that’ll start around 7pm and last until about 7am. Then I’m working all day on Saturday. It’s a bit overwhelming and I’m not looking forward to it one bit.

In preparation, I’m staying up late tonight even though I’m exhausted. I need to push myself and shift my sleep schedule ahead of all of this overnight work. When it’s all boiled down, it’s really just a survival technique – because I simply could last long if I didn’t.

Now that my work area is a lot cleaner and there’s more room, I think I’m going to do some Lego stuff while I listen to music. I might throw on a movie, but I’m not sure what I”m in the mood for. I watched Kill Bill vol 2 earlier (watched vol 1 last night). Maybe Ghostbusters… though I might also be in the mood for Peacekeeper Wars… so we’ll see.

I think I’m done rambling now.
