I have been on 2nd shift for two weeks. For those of you unfamiliar with 2nd shift - I start work at 3:00 pm and finish at 11:00 pm. I worked these hours only briefly many, many years ago, so this is a pretty big change in my routine. Not to mention that my GF works the same hours and we have never been together this much before - never! So far, so good.
The best part..... not having to get up to an alarm when it's still dark out. The worst part.........not much alone time. We're still working on that one. GF doesn't seem to need the time alone that I need, she likes having me around - imagine that! While I also like being around her, there is a part of me that wants be alone sometimes. I can feel myself getting very irritable and antsy if it doesn't happen.
I know we'll figure it out. In the meantime, I'm going to keep enjoying no early alarms!

I, too, need my alone time. Now that I have a new job in "the hood", I will be carpooling with Bing every day and I HATE THE IDEA. I like to listen to my books on tape, she likes to listen to this country music station that sets my teeth on edge at 7:30 a.m....
It is an argument just waiting to happen.
