Me! Not a good thing, as I have to be at work in about 6 hours, but here I sit, wide awake. I'm thinking about going and inspecting some brass. I need to get about 800-1000 9mm cases inspected and ready to load. All are clean, but I do close visual inspections and swage them (as needed) in batches before loading. I'm hoping that 30-60 minutes of that will make me sleepy. Fingers crossed.
I am but it’s lunch time at work.
Yup. About 3am is my lunch time at work too. Days off suck when your body thinks it's time to be at work.
True that
I remember hootowl shifts. I also remember driving and stopping a traffic light and the next thing I remember I was clear across town with 4 traffic lights I didn't remember going through. Usually, I was OK all shift but when it is predawn and the birds start singing for some reason the tuckereds really attack.
My wife dreamed once that I had an affair, and woke up and was pissed at ME.
That’s what I like about melatonin.As many of you OGs know, for the last 3 or 4 years, I've worked the zombie shift at my job (college campus police) Monday-Friday, 11pm-7am. I like it. The boss is gone, the office folks are all gone, no classes happening and the traffic is nill. I enjoy the weekends off with my family, but there's a problem.
Mrs. GED and my youngest daughter (she still lives with us) work the typical M-F, 9 to 5'er. They usually hit the sack around 10pm every night.
When I'm home on the weekends with them, I usually turn in around 11 or so, but I can't sleep. My body says yes, but my mind says no.
I've tried melatonin, but it gives me wicked dreams. I've tried Benadryl, but it dries my nose out too bad. And whiskey just causes marital problems, so I'm at my wits end!
