Back to work!
After yesterday's Back To School meeting, the legion of SCPD Crossing Guards, which I am a proud member, returned to work. Yes, school started on August 10th. For a relatively old guy who remembers school starting after Labor Day, it is pretty weird to welcome kids back in the middle of summer.
But we did get 90 days of summer vacation. Sadly, health problems for both of us limited our ability to enjoy the season. I have been studying Spanish to better communicate with many of my families, as my school serves a large Latino population. We did make one or two concerts and enjoyed a trip on a scenic railway in Fremont.
I only worked my morning shift today, as I had to visit my cardiologist's office for an echocardiogram and get a three-day heart monitor. There are no real concerns, but people like me with an...exciting? Terrifying? Three-volume health history need to keep up with heart health, and it has been a very long time between heart exams.
Seriously, I have the ICD-10 codes of everything that has tried to kill me or change the way I live tattooed on my right bicep, and I need to find an artist to add a couple of codes.
So, what does this mean for my writing and posting? With more structure in my life, I will be eating on a more regular basis (this has been an issue, depression sucks) and setting time aside after my afternoon shifts - I work 1.5 hours in the morning and another 1.5 in the afternoon - for research, writing, and posting.
Now I just need to figure out how to embed photos on my posts because I have a new TTRPG - Gods of Metal: Ragnarock - that is a fucking shit load of insane fun.
Currently drinking: Elysian Space Dust IPA.
