H has to wake up at 2:45am

[CheshireGrin]

to be at work by four o'clock in the morning tomorrow. He's going to bed now.

All I keep thinking is that I would shoot myself if I had to do that. Luckily, it's only for 2 days.

I've had to do this. It suck ballz. Dirty ballz.

Bonus (maybe also for your H) but I get out of work soooooo much earlier in the day! It's nice. Usually I can pop a 5hr Energy and I'm good to go!

Except he's not getting out earlier in the day. His usual shift (at least for this month) is 7a-5:30p. He still has to stay until 5:30. He just has to be there 3 hours early.

Worse. 13 hours. I would cry.

I'd recommend greeting him at the door naked with beer, but he'll be too tired.

Unfortunately, by the time he gets home, I will have just left for work. We won't actually be in the house at the same time again until Tuesday evening.

That is a crazy schedule. I could never get to sleep this early, I would probably stupidly stay up all night.

This is my problem too. Going to bed early is nearly impossible for me, even if I try with the best of intentions. I always end up staying up far too late, and then the anxiety of knowing I need to be awake early will keep me awake.

Double ick. 

I know how that is, too. I see H about for 15 minutes most days. We work opposite shift to avoid daycare.

But when we do see each other....

I've had to be at work by 3:30 AM the last 2 weeks. I worked about 13 hours a day for the last 2 weeks. Thank goodness that is over.

H has worked the 4am-2:30pm schedule for just over a year now. The 2:45am wake-up never seems to get any easier.
