Another crash.

.

Oh, sure, I had full intent.  The thing is, at about the time I wrote the last blog, I began to crash.  Full sun might have helped me get beyond that.  There was no sun.  I kept trying, losing ground all the way.  I reconfigured the goal from doing all of that to just staying awake as long as I could.  I put on a show, to help.  It kept me awake for a few more hours, but barely.  I am not even sure what time I did go to bed.  I think it was after 14:00, maybe as late at 15:00.  I won't swear to any of that, just a suspicion from a few clues, themselves rusted by exhaustion.  I am not sure when I woke, either.  Only that I was hungry.  So... breakfast.  An unusual one, shrimp scampi and the last of the extra potatoes I grilled while heating the grill for the steak.  I had thought to use them in one of the quiches, but between this and that, they hadn't been used.  Frozen.  I thawed several things the other day, those among them.  Scampi is easy and delicious.

Today, though, I must get out.  I will begin doing some of what is required through the night.  I need to get the things to be returned packaged, a letter and check written, and another check written.  I will probably get a shower in, and maybe set some dishes to wash and laundry going.  It's a tall order.  I am still pretty tired.  Pushing the schedule around is not easy, and though I didn't make it as late today as yesterday, I still pushed nearly three quarters of the shift the last two days.  Those are very big jumps.  Still, that's the plan.  If nothing else, I will at least get a check out tomorrow.  Gotta do it.

Oh, right... coffee.  I need a couple of tugs of the black goo or I will end up back in bed.  I might try to nap at 5:00 or 6:00 either way.  Ugh... this is an ugly part of my life.  I'm working on it.  Later.
