Happy Halloween, dear Internets.

It’s time for me to get out of this self-imposed writer’s block. 

Work is busy as hell.  When I go to the evidence room where we store the cases we are working, sometimes I get overwealmed looking at it all.  I clear my desk, look up and see my boss with more evidence bags and lift envelopes assigned to me ready to be worked.  It’s like that for all of us and we are drowning.  I know I should be thankful I have a job to be overworked at, given all the layoffs that have been happening thanks to our lovely economy.  I just want the peace of mind of being caught up with my work.

And that is not going to happen anytime soon.

Speaking of the economy.  I have to put the job search on hold if I want to work for the state of Kentucky.  They are in the midst of a hiring freeze.  Perhaps after our new President is elected on Tuesday and things start to turn around, perhaps things will look brighter come 2009.  I hope so anyway.  If not, I’ll be looking outside of law enforcement. 

I want to go home.  Plain and simple.

So, I’ve finally made a concerted effort to get myself in shape.  I’m not wide as I am tall by any means, but I have some soft spots I want to tone and firm.  I also want to drop a couple of sizes.  It was hard staying on the health kick while working nights and my schedule constantly changing.  My travel for the past month didn’t help much either.  I have now settled into a nice routine.  We’ll see how things are shaping up around Christmas. 

Wow.  Break time is over already.  Time to get my ass back to the grind.

See you soon.
