*Raises hand* It was busy earlier, but its winding down now. Mainly just idiots who can't figure out how to use Remote Desktop now.

Fortunate enough to get this weekend off. But, as fate would have it, I work Monday-Saturday of next week.

Definitely feel burned out though. Working longer hours, weekends, full time school. Haven't had a vacation out of the city in nearly 2 years. The next time I leave the city will be in December for the Rock and Roll Las Vegas Marathon.

I wish. Working the night shit would be pretty sweet, at least I think so. Some extra cash would be cool too.

I used to have a mostly night shift. It was usually quiet and easy going. Hated when they moved me to days.

Try some melatonin maybe? That seemed to do wonders for me.
