Sigh

Well, I'm at work today. No rest for tech support. And that's all I'll say for that.

People are going to start requesting early release very soon. Unfortunately, I needed it the past two days (sick on Tuesday, flat tire yesterday), so I can't today if I want a decent paycheck next week.

We took Dante's bandage off yesterday; the toe still looks a little swollen, but a lot better than it did Monday. He still has maybe two doses of antibiotic to take, and a checkup on Monday to make sure it's healing correctly.

The tire turned out to have a razor blade in it. However, since I took it back to where we bought it, they fixed it for free. Discount Tire rocks.

On a completely unrelated note....we saw an ad for those detoxification foot patches the other day. Matt's skeptical. I'm curious. If it stays slow today, I might do a little more research into them. Just because.

readjustment of time

It's ten am, and I just had lunch. My day is half over...I have 2 hours, then a 15 minute break, then an hour and a half til I leave.

It's rather odd, getting used to 4am as a wakeup time, to having a break at 8, lunch at 9:30 or 10 am, and being done with my work day by 2 pm. Of course, that means in bed by 8:30 pm, asleep by 9.

I haven't taken many calls today; this side of the call center is pretty dead. They're begging for people to take early release (er), but I took it Tuesday (when we were sick) and yesterday (to fix my tire), so if I want any sort of paycheck, I kinda need to not-take er the rest of the week. That, and even if I did take it and get it, I couldn't go home yet, because Matt's not taking it. :-P

It feels like it should be closer to two. I'm used to taking lunch between noon and two, and since I just had lunch (leftover chili), it should be afternoon. Right?

What was funny was the battle cry that rang around the floor at 9 am: "Jack In The Box is open!!!" I had to laugh at that.
