Wow, it has been rainy and super windy all day. I just about flew to work this evening! I was going to have that wind and water in my face on the walk home, so I gratefully accepted a lift even though it felt really silly to do so.

Work was rather damp since, being damp upon arrival, I volunteered to go do the exterior jobs. When I came in, I pointedly commented that I much prefer to do the outside jobs than to vacuum or mop the floors and my comment did not fall on deaf ears. 🙂

I was soaked and frozen solid by the time I came in. It was definitely time for a hot drink, but I don’t drink coffee in the evenings and I’m not a fan of hot chocolate, which we also get free. Noticing a rack filled with a nice assortment of teas, I asked if those were free, too, and they are! So, I can have my hot evening beverage of choice, peppermint tea, at work. If I get bored, there are a ton of other flavours to savour, like lemon ginger and apple cinnamon. I remember having lemon ginger for the first time at Happy Camp and really enjoying it, so I might try that on my next evening shift.

The shift wasn’t bad, even though I had to clean the bathrooms. I don’t mind cleaning bathrooms per se; it’s just that I believe that I’ve cleaned enough toilets in my life to feel that I shouldn’t have to clean any more of them. Oh, I guess it’s one of the many small prices I pay for living the life of my dreams. 🙂

Well, I’m off to bed since I start at 10 tomorrow. I’d prefer to have more than twelve hours between shifts, but at least I’m not going in at six!
