End Of Week Debrief

This post isn’t looking back at Wednesday’s post regretting saying it was a good week so far. I am happy and proud to say I carried the baton all the way to Friday! Yesterday was quite a doozy. I was fucking exhausted before I got on duty and took a nap. I finished my blog post Wednesday and decided it was a good idea to stay up to 3:00 AM. I’m not really sure how I mustered up the energy to, but I did. I was playing Fortnite with Declan and we kept saying it was the last game over and over. Then, Treston got home and we played more and more. I have no regrets, but after waking up to return the duty bag, I fell back asleep to roughly 12:30 PM. I woke up to a call that I was supposed to meet with a personal trainer. I had no idea that I missed a 12:00 PM appointment, so I felt shitty about leaving the guy hanging. After that got squared away and sending multiple apology texts, I gave myself the classic college student pep talk: I NEED TO DO HOMEWORK. Instead, I went on a run, then to the steam room, and got lunch. At 5:00 PM, I got to my room and decided I just wanted to lay down and watch a movie. I’ve been so far behind Phoebe that I needed to watch something. I started watching “The Nut Job” on my phone and got in bed. All of a sudden it was 9:30 PM, and I fell asleep. It happens! Then, I really needed to do my homework. I have so much to do. So, I got on a phone call with my dad and played Xbox golf. Again, it happens! I was so scared about getting no sleep before work. After my call, I took two melatonin gummies, turned off the lights, and got in bed. God was apparently looking down on me, and somehow I fell asleep. I woke up early today so I could go on a short run and hit the steam room before work. It was a great way to wake up after a somewhat restful day. I had a lot of pain in my right heel/calf. It was tight after Thursday and I tried to stretch it out before running this morning. It didn’t work totally. Ever since I fucked up my ankle playing basketball, that damn heel/calf doesn’t like to cooperate either. None of this was a great feeling knowing I needed to stand all day at work in uncomfortable shoes, but we live and we learn. Being out of shape sucks! Not being able to move in the way a nineteen-year-old should be able to is so embarrassing. I had a mixed-berry Celsius and a ham and cheese sandwich before work. This was all an attempt to try and get energized for the day. I also drank so much water that I needed to take a hundred bathroom breaks today. On my weekly ice cream break, the lovely folks at Ralph’s Coffee gave me a mound of ice cream. When I say mound, I really mean MOUND. It was fucking huge. I've been listening to Amy Poehler's new podcast. So far, I really enjoy it. I'd suggest it if you like her. She will improve over time, but she has potential. Also, she will probably get really great guests. She already has. It was a long day, but I’m proud of everything I accomplished this week. I said I was going to do homework after work tonight, but I’m going to sleep now. I didn’t really do any homework and I slacked off on school work. I just took care of myself. That usually isn’t important to me, but I want to get better about that. I miss Violet dearly, but I made the most of the time while she was gone. Now she’s coming back and I’m so happy. I’ll see you all on Monday. My schedule is packed, so it’ll probably be another late-night post. I hope you liked these two life update style posts in a row! Happy Friday, everyone!
