Night Shift

Night Shift

Since I am awake at 4am I thought I'd start this thread for those of us who have trouble sleeping and might find it helpful to have a place to go to chat. Whatever gets you through the night is alright.

To get the ball rolling, I'll just say that I enjoyed being part of the Topic Tuesday discussion tonight. I wish it was possible for these events to be weekly rather than monthly. Either way, thanks SANE and all the people I've met on here over recent months.

Edited June 2016 and February 2017: Night Shift is now open 24 hours a day. To join in, just click through to the last page of the thread at the top right of this post to get to the latest message.

Edited April 2017 and June 2017: For the sake of better communications between members here, I am adding that this thread is meant to be a caring, kind and gentle place of sharing. Humour is welcome, as long as its not unkindly directed towards other members. Hope your time in this chat thread is rewarding.

Re: Night Shift

Hey again, @Former-Member. No tag in your last post to me either, hehehe. I only receive notifications of posts I've been tagged in and only check them when I come on site. I used to be here too much and wanted to make it intentional when I visit.

Here is the most recent poem I have posted to the forum. It's just a first draft. I do not take myself seriously a poet, just like to get some stuff out in words really. I too was put off poetry in high school and really only found my way to it in a big way over the past seven years or so.

Teeth problems here too, dammit, over the past three months. Hope yours resolve quickly.

Re: Night Shift

I'm getting kind of anxious... my pay normally arrives between 7:30PM and 8:00PM, but it's not here yet!

I get less this week too, because I had to take out sick leave again. That said, the day I missed was a Wednesday rather than a Saturday, so I probably get paid a tiny bit more than I did when I mentioned it last month. I'd love to see, but it's taking its sweet time.
