getting by on 4 hours
... of sleep. in one weekend. yup, thats how my weekend went.
- got into Santa Monica on thursday night
- worked friday from 8am - 8pm. basic stuff, not bad.
- got up at 4am saturday for race start, got awesome breakfast at IHOP on way back to site. felt bad seeing matt with one donut.
- worked till about 2am sunday. usually can swap shifts with assistant (matt) and take sleep breaks, but this event was so packed and so damn large, we were both on, both swamped the entire time.
- slept on a creaky cot, totally freezing for 3 or 4 hours. then spent 15 minutes by heater in medical tent thawing my toes.
- got back up, worked from 6am(ish) to 3pm, super high stress levels at points.
- drove to SB, hung out a bit, worked more till 7pm finishing up stupid data entry.
- drove to SLO, had a wonderful dinner, passed the F out at about 10pm.
- up this morning at 6:45am.
its an interesting job. pays well, and i get all the balance bars i want. and some other random junk.
