So I had to work last night during the Superbowl, from 1PM to 9PM. They wanted extra coverage and I figured I felt up to it, plus I didn’t really care about the game. So I had Saturday off and went back in on Sunday. It was a cake shift. Sunday swing shift… well it turns out Sunday swing shift is slower than grave. I had to be there in case there were any major problems on what is probably the biggest night in Las Vegas. Well there were no problems so everything was just cake. I got to watch a good chunk of 2 quarters and got to walk around the casino monitoring equipment and watching the festivities. Even got to see Roger Clemens and Jim Ross. Clemens was with security and a posse, but J.R. was just walking through the casino looking like J.R. and it was just odd to see him. I stared at him and he knew I knew him but he didn’t take the blank stare off of his face. He even walked into me practically. Not a big guy. Unlike Clemens who was flippin huge. ESPN says 6’4, 235, but that just can’t be possible. He was like a mountain.

And what is really good about the whole situation is I now have the choice of either taking the 8 hours of OT or taking off this upcoming Friday and having a 3 day weekend. After much thought, I’ll be taking off Friday. And since the pay period ended last night, I get the time and a half for last night, which means I’ll get a huge check this week and be short on my next check, but still be up 4 hours overall over the span of both checks and get a 3 day weekend and all without using my PTO. And then my father comes out in 2 weeks and I’m taking PTO then, so I get 3 days off, 4 days on and then 3 more days off. It’s kinda like a mini vacation.
