Overworked, dead inside. more at 11


I don't think I have the energy to even write right now... haha, I said right twice but two different ways! OH!

So in the last three days, I've worked 29.5 hours, add on the hour it takes to get to work, and the hour or hour and a half it takes to get home from work, plus the fact that on Friday I had school before work, so that's an extra two hours bus time plus the four hours at school, and if you include the time I'm asleep (we can say.. average 7 hours a night?) in the last three days I've spent 9.5 hours at home, split over three days I've spent around 3.1 hours at home, awake. How sad is that?

Work was pretty brutal again today, we had a buttload of walkins so we were twice as busy as original thought, and we also had a hot breakfast, a hot business lunch and a plated dinner to get ready for Rich... it was a constant run around, every time I would do something I'd get called for something else and I could never clean up or seem to catch my breath. It was pretty frantic and crazy but shit happens.

I'm exausted and pretty out of it, when I got home today I put spaghetti on for dinner and just sat down on the kitchen floor while it cooked. It kind of felt good to just sit there and pet the cats and just... sit there. I could have fallen asleep I think.

After dinner I played a couple games of StarCraft 2 with Ben after not having played for 5 days, which kind of felt weird since it had been so long. We ended up winning points, so it was a positive experience overall.

After StarCraft I decided to do some homework that had been looming over me, specifically my networking stuff, since starting this week we have to take our Cisco chapter quizes from home now instead of in class, so I read a little bit of the chapter and then took the quiz. It was really difficult for me to concentrate, like really, really difficult for me to concentrate. There were a few tough questions that had me stuck for awhile, but in the end after the 25 questions, I scored an 87.5%, which I can live with and I'm happy with. That class is pretty tough considering it's probably the only class I have that's new material, so it can be pretty challenging. Nothing wrong with getting an A right?

After the quiz, it was just about time for TV, so I made some popcorn, sat down and watched Boardwalk Empire and Bored to Death, which just ended a minute ago. I look forward to those two shows the most all week, so it's such a nice thing to sit down and watch them. It sucks that they fall on a Sunday when I'm almost always dead tired and barely awake, but at the same time it really lets me get comfortable on the couch and relax too, as usually after long work days like on the weekend, I'm too tired to have panic attacks and rarely feel nervous at home. I guess I'm too tired to think about anything and my body is too tired to react to anything.

The extra hour of sleep I got last night was surprisingly awesome, as I woke up feeling pretty rested which was nice, and I think it helped me get through today for sure.

The only school work I have left on my homework list is to create practice databases as a means to study for my database test that's on Wednesday. I think I might do that tomorrow after school because I think Ben said he couldn't really play SC2 tomorrow, so it'll give me something to do. I might also work a bit on some personal projects as well, but lately I find that I'm becoming obsessed. I get so involved and absorbed in it that it's all I think about and I can't relax or sleep right and it just races through my mind so I need to be careful. It's weird too, because if a couple days go by without working on a project, it can be really hard for me to get back into it and remember where my mind was at the time I was working on it last.

School tomorrow is operating systems and hardware for three hours, then an hour break, and then my networking lecture for a couple hours. Mondays are usually okay, usually go pretty quickly... I don't think I have anything to bring for my lunch though, so that's actually kind of scary because the worst thing is being hungry and uncomfortable at school when you have to be there for six hours. I know I could buy chips and junk and crap like that but is that really going to fill me up and feel okay while I'm there? I just feel like I never have time to do anything, to go and get a good amount of food, like... working Wednesday night, then Friday, then the whole weekend, that leaves me what... Thursday evening to go and get groceries, and Thursday night you aren't really thinking about lunch time on Monday you know? I'll be lucky if I buy anything for dinner for Friday let alone think about Monday, so... yeah, leaves me feeling frustrated to say the least. I'll probably take a look around tomorrow morning before I leave to see if there is anything I can transform into a lunch.

I'll probably hit up the grocery store after school, probably No Frills, gotta grab things for lunches (duh) and other things like tomatoes, soups, yummy things generally speaking.

I think that's about all I've got for now... I really should go to sleep, as I've got to wake up at 6am and I'm dead tired. Gonna sync my iPod and then get changed and hop into bed. Goodnight!
