16 miles?! That's a lot of patrolling.

I wish I had a large pizza right now.

Actually, that's not too bad. I tend to rack up about nine miles on a normal shift anyway, and when we pull a double they don't expect us to do the whole building twice. However, on Fridays I have to go through every office to turn out lights and coffee pots, which takes about twice as much time as a normal patrol.

Hell, I usually rack up a couple miles just by pacing like a caged animal behind the desk during the three hours I have to stand there at the start of my weekday shifts.

Heh. I'm feeling that urge myself. There's a pizza place right next to my apartment, and I have to resist the urge to grab a couple slices from there when I don't feel like making something.

I think I actually overate a little that night. When I haven't slept my eating habits get pretty sketchy.
