I’m still at work.
I’m posting this just for the record.
And also? In case my future, stay-at-home-mom self gets any wild ideas about how much fun it would be to go back to work, what a relief it would be to get away from the kids, how rewarding it would be to earn a paycheck again, etc.
Dear Future Self: Please note the time of this post. Don’t do it. Love, Past Self.
I’m starting to get a little delirious, I’m not going to lie. There is no end in sight. Send all the survival necessities, please. You know: wine, chocolate, a gun.
Kthnxbai.
Update: Just for the record (again) I had to be in at 9am. HEAR THAT FUTURE SELF?
Also, I updated my blogroll but I’m also kind of spaced out (WONDER WHY, FUTURE SELF!) and if I left you off accidentally or you would just like to be linked up in this mutha, then please email me at clinkny@gmail.com or leave a comment. Feel free to also reassure me that I won’t be this tired forever because holy lord it certainly feels like I will (again, FUTURE SELF, take notice).
Haha, the end signature to that was hilarious!
I write notes to myself from the past all the time - I’m glad to know I’m not the only one.
Sorry you are still at work. Would give anything to be working now as opposed to STUDYING!!!
Hope you leave work soon and head home to your M:)
Holy crap. Hahahahaha. I heart you, Clink. You’re so funny.
Hehe! That ending was so funny! Loved your spelling of ‘bai’.
Holy shit! I definately would have been sleeping on the keyboard.
You are too funny!!
Impressive… I’ve only ever done 12 hours and the office was nice enough to provide dinner.
I’m sure your future self will write a similar post after 15 hours of non-stop parenting.
Oh no, I had you have a lot of coffee.
haha i meant to say i hope you had a lot of coffee..wow i’m still tired
Ugh! You’re a bigger person than I! I would have been out of there at 5pm no matter what had to be done! Good Luck. I hope you’re sleeping in this morning and not killing yourself some more.
Yikes! Definitely save this post for future reference.
Sorry to hear that you were still at work late - those are the worst days/nights.
Do you get to come in late today? I always use that one when I work late.
And I have a stash of Pop Tarts at my desk for occasions like this.
Snookums. I was totally wondering about you last night and if you were still at work. If I had a gun I might’ve sent it up your way with some leftover wine right after I got done OFFING MYSELF because M made us watch The Pianist and it was the most incredibly depressing piece of cinema (ever).
I hope you’re still with us . . . drunk, maybe; passed out in a pool of chocolate or something; but surviving nonetheless. xoxo
And what time did you have to be back in for the next morning?
Because I know you wanna hear a funny, possibly true story: http://forum.vgcats.com/showthread.php?t=14075
To sum it up, a kid who committed suicide left a note saying nothing but “kthxbai”. Police were stumped and his parents had no idea what it could possibly mean.
I just thought that was kind of funny. (Not the suicide part, obviously; but the mystified part, definitely.
Good Lord. It appears that they’re trying to kill you. Scary. It will get better, I’m sure. Stay positive!
Thanks for the linkage.
You will get through this! I promise. Just use it as an excuse to lengthen your birthday celebration!
The good thing about working late? Drunk emails from me. I know you loved it.
ok, i’m on the blogroll. we’re cool. carry on.
oh lordie! what a long ass day! hopefully you can cut today short!
you are hardcore woman. they better be paying you a fortune for all the hard work you’re putting in. but if i remember television, they’re probably not. =(
you will get through this. and also? you are marrying a rockin’ dude. how’s that for a thought to make you smile?
AND ALSO. you’re halfway through the week. happy hump day!
Oh man. Sometimes when you’re less stressed, I really would love to hear your thoughts on the whole stay at home mom thing. It’s something I’m starting to wonder more about now that kids seem imminent in my future (i.e. a few years from now).
I’m delurking because I do what I’m told.
Also, your future self/past self conversation sounds like Hiro! “No future me!”
Anyway, love your blog…. get some sleep!
I wish I could tell my Past Self, “You are hot! Do you hear me, Past Self? Smoking hot! Own it!”
I guess I’d say that to Present and Future Self, but let’s face it, nothing beats looking like you did when you were toned and very young.
9am. I’m officially impressed. Haha. That’s just insane. I’d have thrown a hissy fit by now if I were you.
And I thought I worked long hours? Sheesh, you win, Clink! I hope your bosses are aware of and appreciate the hours you are putting in…
I hope you’re not STILL at work right now
But I get it! My first official day was today.
linked! yesssssssssssss.
Eeeek! Though I can tell you, after I’ve had my four days in a row of full-day parenting, I am dying to get back to work. (Is that wrong to put in writing?)
But after 15 hours, they are usually asleep, and it sounds like your work isn’t. It’s all about balance, I guess. Hope you got some sleep!
Oh my god work let me come to your blog today. I’ve been wanting to comment, but can’t.
From what I can tell, all your hard work has gotten you where you are today with your awesome job you love so much, so it can’t be all that bad, can it?
Hope things are looking up!
