Sunrise, Sunset
So, the latest job.
It's in a pharmaceuticals warehouse. It's big, it's kinda grubby, and it's full to the brim with boxes with long names on the front. Great. And my job? I unpack boxes.
...and then I unpack more boxes.
...and then I go and find some more drugs for packing into other boxes.
...and then I unpack boxes.
For eight hours every day for a week.
It's also completely lacking in natural light. This isn't my favourite assignment so far, it must be said; and good heavens, I'm tired.
In other news: I will not be able to be at Chris Guttierez, but I am going to come up for the whole weekend beforehand; that's the best compromise I can get. Anyway, I couldn't do both- and a longer stay is better, right?
The temp agency were not too impressed by my suggestion that I had more days off next week, so I figured better to make this compromise.
The current job is stressing me out a little, what with needing to be incredibly accurate and bored out of my mind all at once. *Shrug* Ah well, what can be done.
Anyway: the main reason for this post is to say... NaNo! I've finished a plan for something- wait for it- new. I know, I know. I'm still doing my rewrites,
sophonica; I promise. My homework is not going to be forgotten. And the essay. I've had some more thoughts about that, by the way. On the subject of people pestering me for things... (well, in retaliation, anyway)... I'm getting Ketket-Withdrawal. It's a terrible disease, only to be rectified by undertaking some work involving proofreading.. ^_^
I'm going to go get some more sleep. Lots of fun substances to take out of boxes with mysteriously hidden staples in the morning.
