With the start date at the new job looming, I've been slowly trying to shift myself over to a day person schedule. I'm not going out at all, I'm doing everything within my power to get to sleep and my ass out of bed at earlier and earlier times, and hating every moment of it.
I've been nocturnal for most of the last ten years. I love having the freedom to stay up as late as necessary to get things accomplished. I'm used to frittering away until 3 am or so if I feel like it.
And now I have this internal pressure to get to bed. It sucks.
I've done a lot of things to help this out. I've set up my computer and the stereo in the living room to automatically turn on NPR when asked. I'm trying to ensure that I have everything ready to go in the morning so I can just get started. Once I'm up and moving, I'm fine.
I just have to get up in the first place.
It's going to be hard. I'll need about 3 alarms at a minimum next week.
Thanks to a wonderful recruiter and some excellent interviews, I have a job! YAY!!!
So now I have a week left between now and the end of my free time.
And I have to become a morning person. Ideally with the running before that.
On my to-do list atm:
1. Update wardrobe so I can fill at least five days a week
2. Do my taxes so I know how much of my savings is free for other things
3. Paperwork for the new job
4. Go to sleep earlier and earlier so I can get up early in the morning.
...
I'm sure I'll come up with more.
Dear Writers of Damages...
I love you.
I love how you take our base assumption, something we've been working with for the last year and completely turned it on its head. I love how you changed things around. I love how you surprised the HELL out of me.
Can we borrow Patty Hewes for a couple of episodes of 24? Imagine how fabulous that would be.
Anyways, thanks for adding to the fun. Don't kill my dog.
XOXOXO, Pin
