recent rain

I had a dream in which I found out I had an infant child. I thought "shit, how did I forget I had a kid? when was I pregnant? and how the hell am I supposed to take care of him with my current schedule?"
I woke up and was relieved, only to find out that I really did have a kid, just learning to hold his head.
When I finally really did wake up, I double guessed myself, touched my stomach to see if it felt like I had recently been pregnant.

My schedule really is strange: I work every other weekend, and my workday is either 7-3:30 or 3-11:30, depending on the shift. I've been tired a lot but hopefully once I adjust to the demands I will no longer come home and fall flat on my face. This job is exactly what I was looking for, out of the jobs available for my level of education and clinical aspirations. But it requires interacting with new people everyday, running around, being 'on' the entire time, and I've never been good at that.

The rest of my family is in Vegas until the 29th, so I have Potemkin for company. He's currently purring next to me in hopes of receiving some affection. Recent rain is dripping from the gutters.
