Lawman has put an end to my running and I'm so far from my home.

Alarm seemed a bit early today. I kinda wanted to snuggle under the covers and nap for another hour. I was good, tho and heaved myself upright and made my coffee. Now I'm sitting here blearily sipping it and trying to wake the fuck up.

Yesterday was a loooong day. I took calls all day, which is fine. That's actually kind of fun. The part that sucks is that my trainer is a perfectionist, and it's my first full day on the phones. I'm so tired of hearing what I messed up. I know she has to, but goddamn, it's annoying. I'm not doing badly, and she's pointed out the stuff I do well, but I am also a perfectionist, and I thought I'd be perfect first try. I was not. And I continue to not be. I'm improving, I think. It's just a lot of things to get right, and I get frustrated with myself.

Fortunately, my co-trainee did not have to take bereavement yet, so I had a bit of a buffer. We alternate taking calls, so it gives me a few minutes to lick my wounds and get ready for the next call.

I'm hoping I do better still today. I'm actually far less nervous before a call, so that helps.

I just really want to do well, and yesterday was very frustrating for me.

But on the plus side, I was getting paid $50/hr to be frustrated with myself, so that was nice. Yay holidays! Yay next week when I will be getting triple time!

No D&D this weekend, which is strange and annoying. Next weekend, we have a few games, which will be nice. I'm going to take my Thurs-Saturday days off and do some prep, because it's time for the MotW game's pay off, and I want it to be good.

I can see one thing for sure. The rotating schedule is going to have me SO fucked up on days. I'm already like "Is this Sunday? Or is it Tuesday?"

Okay, gotta think about pants. Everyone have a most delightful Sunday!
