My boss has finally seen sense and moved me back to a morning/afternoon shift. Of course he's totally forgotten that the original reorganisation was his idea (against the advice of myself and the other department heads involved), so now he's claiming credit for changing it back again.
Unfortunately, while this means that I may get back some semblance of a social life, it also has the effect that I won't be able to stay up until three in the morning. This therefore means I'll probably be online rather less often when my transatlantic chums (and many of my UK ones) are about.

Oh dear, that is sad news
I suppose now you'll be showing up at work in the mornings dog tired and with bags under your eyes after a night of posting, just like I do now

That is a distinct possibility! I've promised myself that I'll be in bed by 1am every night, but then I do that anyway.

And of course I'll still be up late a couple of nights a week!

Actually, I'm looking forward to the magical day when I'll be put on the day shift! That would be a bit more in line with you folks on the other side of the pond!

herrrmmm.... sour news about your shifts, but the good news is I don't have to tell you to update your journal!!!
(my work should really be done from 2am-10am, but no one seems to want to let me work that shift, and it'd be terrible for school, but I was eager to do it, because that's equal to 9-5-ish for England...)

Getting offline is harder than it looks, too!!!
I am ignoring homework... I really only have two hours left... And I have two more days(minus sleep, recreation and work...) to do it in...
