Love your new pic. I used to work 4x10s and had 3 days off, but they were always during the week. Still that extra day off made a huge difference. The different start times suck right now though - 6am Tu/Th, 9:30am M/W/F. If I go in early every day, I'm still going to be staying late. Then I'll just be working more hours and getting less down time away from it. And I don't get overtime, so I've limited motivation for that. And really, work does suck the life out of me.

I know exactly what you mean about being too "forgiving" over major stuff. I'll have to tell you a story sometime about my friend Daryl.

I think the plan is to drive up to Vancouver sometime this afternoon, grab some food, see some sights, meet up with my pal Liz, hit some clubs, drink the night away.

We have not, as of yet, decided if we're going to be getting a hotel room or doing the long drive back to Seattle at the wee hours of the morning after we've sobered up a little.

But it should be a good time! My big yellow car will be getting it's first trip across the border.
