My eyes open to see the red numbers on the clock reading five eleven. That’s forty-one minutes after I intend to wake up and only nineteen before I need to leave. I quickly drag myself up and to the coffee maker before running to the Durango to get my uniform pants and shirt for the day. After getting dressed and chugging down my coffee, I hurry out to the backyard to feed Maui (my pet rabbit) before grabbing my keys and getting on the road to work at five thirty-five.
By the time I park and clock in it’s five fifty something, so I cut it pretty close. I head to the shop and hang out till six before we start loading up the tools and head to the guard shack and then on into our work area for the day. I would call it by name, but I’m not sure how much info I’m really supposed to share or if it would mean anything anyways.
A little before seven I stop what I’m doing and head over to help Reggie with a set up. Turns out they don’t need much from us and I’m back to swinging a weed eater by seven thirty.
By first break I’m caught back up to where I was by the same time last week, even with stopping for half an hour and hitting a spot we tend to forget. By lunch we only have the back road of the area left before the next area. By the end of the day the area is finished.
Towards the end of the day Morgan texts me and let’s me know Taylor got in an accident. She and my mom were on their way to Fayetteville to her. As of the writing of this she had to get stitches and her elbow may be broken. For getting in an accident on a bike that doesn’t seem nearly as bad as it could’ve been.
I’m home by three and just relax and listen to some podcasts until Sean comes over to get me. I finish the newest “The Adventure Zone” and start the newest “Nerd Poker”. With the story coming to it’s end, Griffin is going all out on the feels and giving me chills.
At five Sean comes over and we head to Taco Bell to meet his mom. I get the double chalupa and potato-rito. Both are good, the latter tastes just like the griller only un-grilled. After that it’s over to his mom’s for Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy before heading home.
As soon as I get to the house I try and go to bed. Well,I do go to bed, but it’s at least an hour before I manage to fall asleep.
