Much better...
I talked to Paul last might about my arm and hand deal. I mostly knew what it wasn't but, I wanted to be sure. Cat bites are nothing to play with, really. Turns out I'm good to go on that for a few more years. I had a tetnus shot sometime after 2000, while I was working for Wally. They're good for, like 10 years, so, thank God for that.
Paul said it sounds almost like tendonitis. The fact that I fell asleep on the floor, with my head on my arm didn't help at all. He said to take Ibuprofen and apply heat and maybe get some actual SLEEP sleep for a change.... I did all that after I cleaned the dog-yard and the dog mini-barn out back. I picked up all the crap they'd shredded, raked up the poopage, removed and replaced the straw in the shelter and gave myself a bigger-around-than-a-cigarette blister on the inside bottom of my (right, of freakin' COURSE) thumb. Right on the side of the knuckle nearest my hand, so every time I flex anything it hurts. The good news is, that's all that hurts, now. The steak knife and arthritic hand have quit the shit, thank you, Paul. I also finally got a decent amount of sleep. Since Thursday, I've slept for less than three hours the first two days and less than six hours the last two. That includes today. I don't know why, but here lately I seem to be runnin', runnin', runnin' til I just drop, then I sleep for the barest minimum amount of time and get up and start runnin' again, staying up, doing shit, watching tapes and hangin' around like a friggin' bat all night long. My hand to GOD, I am a nightshift person from the ground up. That's fine too, works just great, til I hafta do something that involves... EW... 'day people'. There's something cool about 'night people'. They think differently. Act differently. Are different. For the most part, they're really kinda cool. I'm not sure why, but there are, thankfully, very few anal-retentive, uptight nimrods who work nights. They seem to be pretty much restricted to day shift, mostly mornings, too. Some afternoon shifts, maybe, but rarely ever any at night. That's one of the biggest reasons I so love working nights. Fewer dipshits. Anyway... I now have somewhere in the vicinity of 15 or so emails waitin' for a reply, but... I also have one out I'm waiting to hear back from... deudderson. *ahem* *muttering to self* "git me all excited about Cowtown people from days gone by, make me remember all those names then... nuttin" siiiigh. Du-uude." Oh, and by the way, I forgot to ask ya d., do ya recognize the guy on my sidebar? If ya don't, it really wouldn't be surprising, seeing as how the 'person' who owns the place (Cowtown, that is) steadfastly refuses to acknowledge the guys past existence... or him, when he was alive. Okay, got some dishes to do, a bed to re-sheet and critters to feed. This won't take long and I will be back in a bit. Peace.

Hey...I talked to Paul last night...he's a very cool person. ;-)
I used to be kind of a night person...just lately it's been more because I can't freaking sleep (although last night I slept 8 hours for the first time in ages)
I don't know how you keep going, like you do. I'm sleep deprived, but I don't have as much shit to do in a day as you.
*hugs*

Yes working nights can be a good thing, I just hate being tried all day.
