    Whew! It’s been a loooooooong day! I slept around 1am and woke up by Doreamon saying “may isang mensahe (you have 1 message)” then followed by a call from Inah, a fellow coder in in my online work. Ace’ message alert tone is Doreamon and he’s having fun with it. I too likes listening to Doraemon. For almost 2 weeks, our phones are ringing almost every night. You see, the captchas in OHJ are overflowing that they need more hands to enter it. Upon hearing Doraemon’s voice, I instantly stoop up and turned on the PC…it’s 0427H. It’s still dark outside. Ace just pee and went back to sleep while I was left coding in the living room until he wake up again, prepared and left for work. I just asked for a 15-min break when he emerged from the bathroom so that I could assist him with what he needs. Really, my husband needs me everytime he’s dressing up because he needs my suggestion and approval on what he’ll wear.

    I am planning to log-out after Ace left for work so that I could get back to sleep to have enough energy for my 10AM shift but the Q was high that we even need more hands. After an hour, some coders logged in so I had time to take a break for 1 hour and returned to work around 10 until 6PM. Really, that was a long day. I didn’t even had a decent meal. I didn’t had enough rice. I just ate the muffins Ace brought home the other night and a fruit salad. That was all I had for the day. The captchas are non-stop. Promise, it’s non-stop that I felt my fingers are getting stiff. I used my break periods to massage my fingers a little bit to ease the pain that I’m starting to feel.

    3 hours before my shift will end, my head started to ache and  I was just gently massaging my nape and forehead when I happen to touch a pimple that is starting to appear on the latter. Oh, this must be the effect of lack of sleep. I hope it will only remain as a pimple and not develop into acne because for sure I cannot afford to have the best acne treatment. So I need more sleep starting tonight. I hope I could get at least 6 hours this time. Then, I must finish every pending thing so that I could retire for the day earlier than usual.
