Feels the way she used to feel

[flemmings]

The 6:30 can-you-work-for-me? text is much easier to take than the 6:30 phone call. Doesn't rip one from sleep in quite as traumatic a way. But after a seven and a half hour day with one 30 minute semi-break I find myself bloody-minded and out of charity with half the staff. Quick, happy pills! Find the good side in this!

Well, if I can still move come tomorrow morning (no guarantees) I may be doing many more shifts than I want to I had thought possible. Which means more money from the Canada Pension Plan. Why, just last Friday they sent me a note to say that since I'd continued working after 65, my CPP payment would be upped by $1.15 a month, and I was due for a lump retroactive payment of- wait for it- $9.05!!!

Yes, well. Maybe I'll try bed with the AC on high.
