Night Shift

Tomorrow I return to night shift. As excited as I am to escape the craziness of days, I am dreading the thought of making my body adjust to a night existence. If I was 20 I wouldn't think twice about life in the dark but now days my body rebels. Plus, in Germany there really is a limited amount of entertainment for the dark side. I can't quite see myself clubbing it up till 4am and therefore might have to start frequenting the scary 24 hour gym. The last three nights I have been trying to make the transition. Each night making myself stay up for as long as possible. My goal for tonight was 4 but it is not quite 2 and I am fading fast. On reflection I am not sure slow torture was the best option and I should probably have just taken the plunge. All the pain tomorrow night based on three dreamy night sleeps prior. I guess I will know for next time. Although by next time I will most likely be a crazy sleep deprived individual who doesn't know the difference between night or day and has forgotten what sleep really feels like. So in conclusion maybe my current torture is good preparation for what is to come and I should just embrace the experience. Either way I think now is a great time to say goodnight and scoot off to bed. So much for 4:)
