I'm Going To Be Really Busy

Next week, my manager is going on vacation. For me, this means more responsibility and seven very hectic days in a row. To start the week, I'm going to be working from 8:30am to 12pm and 5pm to 9:15pm Monday through Friday. Then, on Saturday and Sunday, I'm going to be working the full day. That means 8:30am to 9:15pm on Saturday and 10:30am to 6:15pm on Sunday. At least, I'll have Monday and Tuesday off to make up for it.

I'm excited about having the added responsibility of running the store, but, it's also a drag on my personal life. Lately, I've been really enjoying the opportunity to go to karaoke at least two nights a week. For one week, that is going to come to a screeching halt. Hopefully, I don't get too exhausted as karaoke has been that part of my day to really refresh me.

In other news, I've been feeling a bit helpless lately. Almost everyone I care about has been in the hospital, ER, or clinic for one reason or another. I'm either too far away, too busy, or both to be of any real moral support by their side. No one has said anything to make me feel this way. It just stems from caring about friends and family. I hope everyone who's been laid up is recovering quickly.

Finally, I'll be offline for most of this next week due to my work schedule. Thus, if you drop me a comment, message, or offline IM, I'm not ignoring you. I'll keep up with everyone as I can this next week.
