Behind on updates...I know....

Finally, an update to y blog. For some reason I couldn't motivate myself to make an entry. I guess it's because I've been working alot lately and on top of that, my mind has been focused on my trip to DC this weekend. More about that later....
The last two weeks at work have been long. I've worked over 100 hours. I also had to work on the 4th of July. Thank god for overtime and getting paid time and a half. Last week, I worked six days straight. I had to pick up an opening shift on a Saturday (my day off and worked 4:45a - 2:00p). Then back to my regular work schedule the next day (Sun - Thur 3:30p - 11:30p or later). I don't think I can do an opening shift again. I was so exhausted after working opposite shifts.
My birthday was this past sunday (July 11th) and yet I still had to work on that day. I didn't really do anything on Friday night, but on Saturday night night, I went out with friends. We started the night at Central Station (gay club) and decided the placed sucked after awhile as it usually does. The DJ there pretty much only plays what he wants and not what the customers want to hear. So, we headed over to Chicago (striaght club on the riverfront). We stayed there until after 5am and had a blast. I havent had that much fun in a long time.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! :P

It is now three days until I leave for DC. My off time is to be spent to finalize plans and get everything together for the trip. Everything has been working out so far, except for work. I gave them three weeks, if not four weeks advance notice and they still have not given me a definite answer. I explained to them that a friend of mine got me the tickets for the trip as a surprise birthday gift. My boss is saying that we might not have enought staff the cover one of the days that I am going to be gone. I told her that I am willing to work one or two of my days off when I get back to make up for the days that I miss. I guess I'll find something out within the next few days. I'm hoping to hear the answer that I want to hear. :P If not, I'm just going to have to postpone the trip and reschedule. UGH! I have been looking forward to this trip for way to long.
Well, that's it for now. More to come.....
