First things first, or something

I was expecting a bit of déjà vu in this, my second layoff. Instead, I'm experiencing the weirdness of my first thing in the morning being 8am instead of 4pm. Nothing is really open and breakfast won't involve a burger, sushi or kabob.

And I'm exhausted. This has been the week of "go-go-go I'll sleep later I want to do it all"! It started with a mini-flip to day hours for Thanksgiving last weekend, continued over the week with 4 hour sleeps and strategic naps so I could work nights and attend daytime events, and culminated with our work farewell party. I slept like the dead last night.

So here I am this morning sitting on the couch waking up instead of falling asleep, nursing a headache, looking out the window to the quiet of morning not the hustle and bustle of the afternoon, and wondering what to do next.

First things first. Tylenol for the headache. Then coffee. We'll see where things go from there.
