Good Night! How Are You?

I am a little nervous; tonight I begin training for the new producer position I'm starting. I go in at eleven tonight and stay till seven in the morning, so I'm getting ready to go to bed now in order to be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for a long night...day...of learning! I get the feeling that working this shift is going to feel like pulling consecutive all-nighters to get projects done in college. What a nightmare! The good thing is, if I get good enough at it, by December I could be working evenings again, unless I decide I like this shift too much to move. Only time will tell! Usually I'd be helping Ryan with his youth group this evening, but I figure I might as well start off on the right foot and get some sleep, and Ryan encouraged me to do just that.

Here's something I just realized today about my new hours: I don't work Fridays! I mean, I end my Friday workday at 7 a.m. and then I don't have to work all weekend until Sunday night! The only problem is, what do I do on Sundays? Sleep in the morning, or in the evening? That will take some figuring out.

I just hope I can do this. I know I need to have confidence in myself because that is the only thing that will keep me from feeling like a complete failure. I have lots of ideas for improving the show, but I will have to get the basics down first!

OK, time for bed, I guess. Weird. Gotta love working in television!
