Weekend update is still tired

The work week wasn't exactly bad per se, just BUSY enough and the schedule wonky enough (two midshifts followed by three early shifts with no break in between) that I've been drained of energy over the last three days. Despite all that, I did have just enough energy to walk to the farmer's market today and enjoy beer and lunch at our favorite local pub. I'm definitely still tired and sleepy though, so I doubt I'll be doing much of anything else for the rest of the day that requires movement.

Next week's schedule is a little more bearable, though...I'm doing only one midshift, one afternoon half-shift and a few mornings (with a break in between) which means I won't be all wobbly by the end of it. I've come to enjoy the mid-week breaks, actually...it breaks things up and it gives me a bit of a respite so I can catch my breath.

I did mention on FB the other day that school has started again in the neighborhood, which means The Teen Hordes are back. Technically the high school kids are not supposed to cross Geary Blvd during school hours for safety's sake, but somehow that's become a rule we can't enforce (don't ask, I don't know), so that means they come to the store during their lunch times and hover like a swarm around the self-checkouts before leaving detritus in their wake. I mean yeah, I usually don't mind them, but they just stand there TAKING UP ALL THE ROOM with zero space between them, unaware of what Inside Voice means. They don't stay long but YIKES they are a bear to manage sometimes.

Anyhoo -- doing my usual Sunday catch-up with emails, blogs and whatnot, so back to the trenches...
