(HER)-O...Wow...you know, it almost looks like you got it from falling off the chair and bumping your head on the cement floor..well, anyway, your very brave.

graveyard shift.sounds familiar, but on 2nd thoughts 3 hrs of sleep in the wee hrs of the day is the still better than none or perrenial bliss

I dont know....but I enjoy it...may be now I am used to it..but still b/w all tht noises as you take the lift and go out for a smoke....its so quite out there, may be a never ending night or a perfect day-break...a different world, though momentarily!
