This week I started working again for a company that installs stage rigging and machinery. The money is better than working overhire*, and there is far more work in the summer. The downside is we keep construction hours, in the shop at 6:30 AM, which means getting up at 4:00 AM.
Now, through no concious choice, I spent Monday and Tuesday without consuming any caffeine. I guess I was too tired to remember to drink a glass of tea. This, on top of trying to readjust a body clock used to working until 2:00 AM, has had me dragging ass in the shop.
Today. one of my co-workers bought me a giant cup of iced tea. I have actually come home, taken a shower, walked to the Kennedy Center and back, and am currently in my office, aka Starbucks, and it's almost 7:00 PM.
This probably means something negative, but I am just happy to have some energy.
* Overhire: Doing on-call production work for a theatre, as opposed to having a staff position there.
