i haven't blogged a whole lot in the last month or so... as much as i have been bored at work, you'd think i would have had at least a page everyday. so lets just start with the new stuff going on, to catch you up, so to speak.

i started a new schedule at work, 6:00 to 17:00. so far, i have been managing it well. the first day, last saturday, i didnt get much sleep, though i was trying to get to bed early. last night, i got plenty of sleep and so today, i feel okay. theres something strange about being up early and being alert at the same time. we have all rolled out of bed, for some reason or another, at an hour we arent used to getting up, but most of those times we dont think too much about being awake. here i am, getting up at 5 am and feeling alert. waking up before the alarm. thats new for me. and then, each time i get in the car, i have random flashes of deja vu; road trips with my parents when dad wanted to get an early start, going to conventions in the summertime, waking up for early morning service... driving by the airport made me think that i should be going there instead of work. one morning, i felt like i was back in london and we were getting up early to go to the museum. it was raining that day too.

i also wonder how joe is doing these days.
