#210 - part time
i've been doing some part time home care work. yes, work. wow. it's been awhile since i've had to get up at a certain time. it is not even 9pm and i am ready for bed. while starting at 9am shouldn't be too difficult, it is kind of annoying. i like to sleep in. i don't like to set my alarm. for awhile there i was waking up consistently at about 10. i will miss those days but it is kind of nice to get into a sort-of schedule. i say sort-of because this is just temporary. the couple i am doing home care for just needs someone till they are over a hump of sorts. then it's onto the next client, and the next, and the next. they all live in different areas of portland and it will take different amounts of time to get there. also the times of their care will vary. right now it's four hours a day (9a-1p), five days a week, ten blocks from my house. i can handle that. plus they are cute and nice. if this at all sounds like complaining or whining, it is not. i like it. i just like sleep better. why can't i be paid to eat, sleep, workout, listen to music, and play Wii?

congrats on your new job! i totally know what you mean about waking up to go to work. before winter break i'd wake up at 6:30 (well, my alarm was set for 6:30, i'd unknowingly turn it off in my sleep and actually wake up at 7:15) and it was okay because it was lighted out, but then when i went back to work last week my alarm went off at 6:30 and i couldn't believe it because it was pitch black outside. waking up before the sun is NOT fun. nor does it make any kind of sense. sun means awake. dark means sleep. it's not right.
it's kind of cool that your job allows you to switch around a lot, that keeps things interesting right? anyway, have fun with your new job!
