There's really only one word to describe my current state - tired. I'm on another midnight rotation, and I've worked over 70 hours in the past week. We're doing things a bit differently this time - instead of the two weeks of 12am-8am, we're doing one of 8pm-4am then one of 12am-8am. Well, Greg (roommate/coworker) was on his second week of midnights when I started my 8pm-4am's, and he was sick as a dog for the first two days of that, so I just sent him home both days. He had a fever of around 103°F, so he had no business being at work. I found other reasons over the next few days to be at work far longer than I wanted to be, and it's just sucked the life out of me..... and I've got another week to go. :-(

Last weekend was cool though - I caught a ride with Darin and Lisa to visit with Jon and Michelle at their new house near Cincinnati. Andre braved his cat allergies and made the trip as well. Jon and Michelle have quite the house down there - it just goes to show that the dollar goes a lot farther once you get out of southeast Michigan. We went to downtown Cinci and walked around for a while, just kinda wandering around before we went out for Jon's birthday dinner. The women insisted that we go into places like Tiffany's, but then got all offended when we wanted to go into the Hustler store we stumbled across... oh well. That place looked shady anyways. We also got to enjoy some Skyline Chili - a gift that keeps on giving... Giving lower intestinal problems that is. It was tasty, but wow. More cheese than any human should eat! All in all I had a great time, dispite the gastrointestinal discomfort.
