i had to work the last 12 days straight through
i have the next 2 days off.
i am very fatigued as i am grill chef at an upscale restaurant and my station is usually 110 degrees or hotter.
i will sleep most of monday to make up for rest i haven't gotten.
on tuesday i will hit a neighborhood on the north end of melbourne and go door to door to do a voter info walk for obama.
i wont be on here posting false concerns.
i wont be on here trashing the nominee.
i wont be on here restirring the primary pot and continuing hard feelings.
i wont be on here trying to shake the confidence of fellow democrats.

thats just what I'm going to do.
I'm sure some of you have a different plan.

7. my husband is on day 14.
the business he works for is moving, and they can't give him a day off at the moment. At least they finally gave him a raise after almost five years of no raises and he's been with them for almost ten.

enjoy your days off, if you have family try to spend a little time with them. :hi:

14. He was teaching english as a second language to Japanese students for a while
On the telephone native Japanese cannot tell that Maury is Eye-talian -'Merkin.

The most difficult language in the world and when native speakers meet him they go crazy.

He was also a submariner when he was in the Navy...which could explain MANY things....heh.

15. 80+ hours a week, 29 days and counting
Being a campaign staffer is quite exhausting. And its frustrating to come on here and see almost every post at the top of GD:P is either concern trolling or another distraction from what we can/should be focusing on (McSame).

Despite the fact that I probably won't get a day off until August, Id much rather be in my shoes than yours. My work isn't nearly as taxing as yours, so enjoy your well deserved two days off.
