Hour 14 of work begins
Edited on Sun Jan-25-04 12:16 AM by HEyHEY
I want to go home.......ugh. I've been here since eight this morning. Should I go home? My editor said he wanted all the pages and stuff done by tomorrow. He's not a hitler type so I think there was a kind of insincerity to his request. I am almost done, I just have to finish a couple articles and layout...it'd take me an hour...but honestly I'm so tired I can't even think straight.

EDit: not HERE, but working none the less.

2. Yeah and I'm the only one doing it
We had six pages of sports...none of which happened until today. Im the only guy on...so I had to get the stories write them, get the pics, also get a pic for the front page. And then do the layout.

3. Go home and get some rest. You'll do a better job with rest.
If you think he was insincere, take him up on that.

Hugs, Laura

...and drive home safely HeyHey

6. That reminds me of a couple of my college papers
It is better to sleep when you've reached the brain exhaustion point. If you need to meet a deadline, get up early. Even 3-4 hours of sleep makes a difference.
