_mental_fatigue_
i'm tired..

again..

of everything, everyone, ...

i'm getting older, it's not getting an easier..

i used to be able to finish projects that i started,
listen to complete albums, not fall asleep during movies..

and now i complain about the neighbors upstairs
making too much noise, when i'm trying to sleep !!!

what happened?

yeah, i still try to keep up.. music/movies/tv/video games..
but its so much rehashed stuff.

being alone can do that to you...

i was working night shift for about 2 months (12 midnight-8am)..

it was awesome, no one around, got to jam out to music at work..
come in wearing jeans/t-shirts... bring lots of food to snack with..

even brought some movies/tv shows to watch during the slow period.
(shhhhhh..............) ..

i liked being there, in the dark, working alone at night..[we support
a lot of international customers, and had a big project]...

now, that i'm back from vampire shift, it's hard getting used to the
daylight...and being up/eating at 'regular' hours..

i've missed this board, and keeping up with underworld...i guess i
have a lot of catching up to do..

another birthday coming up...ughhh....42...........[cool number though]..

and i did meet a few cool girls at work, that have made things very
interesting..[ok, one's married now...interesting story about that one,
and the other has a boyfriend]...oh well...

anyways, i'm going to have through myself back into trying to get
'star wars' ep 4/5 restored from film -> HD, and beefing up my
retro LCD watch collection, and buying even more obscure ebay
items from my childhood, like old handheld mattel videogames, and
crazy rubiks puzzles..

why am i rambling on like this?

i don't know..

must be mental fatigue..

Everyone I've known who has returned from the Nightshift goes through that same feeling(s).

Regular diet and a brisk walk after dinner/supper is the best bet to get you back on track.

Re: _mental_fatigue_
I'm soon switching to an evening shift myself, 4pm to 1:30am, and I don't know how I'll handle it. I'm very much a day person, and I love all of the people interaction I get at work during the day; I see soooo many people. I'm afraid I'll get lonely at work at night, working with the same 3 people, who are locked away working in thier own rooms, doing thier own thing.

We'll see what happens.
