I'm usually scheduled 6AM to 3 PM, starting lunch between 10 and 10:30 AM. That day, I worked 10AM to 7 PM. I was really thrown off my game.

I can see how it would do that. I switched from 10am to 9am a while back and am still recovering :)

Working on my boater's license and man this is tedious. on each page I have 'read' there is a timer on how long I have to stay on it. It ranges from 20 seconds to 5 minutes.

Yech. I've found it's easier just to keep to salt water than to get a license. You know you only need a license for freshwater operation in NJ, right?

Wait, a 'timer'? Is this on a computer?

Yeah. There is a timer that prevents me from going to the next page. Believe me I tried to 'cheat'.

It's my annual "oh thank goodness I made it through another year!" vacation. ;) Just time off to relax and get some stuff done around the house.
