Working Every Other Day

Noticed that starting yesterday/Thursday/Thanksgiving, I am only working two of the next five days I normally work at my main job.  Yesterday was Thanksgiving, obviously.  Today/Friday I worked (although it was a very abbreviated day because there was no work -- thank Buddha there was so much work Tuesday and Wednesday that I think I got my 32 hours for the week).  Monday I don't work, Tuesday I do, Wednesday I don't because that was one of the few free days I could take my paid time off that I would otherwise lose at the end of the year.  So, yeah, I should recognize that I can take it easy.

Now, the reason I am taking Monday off is that a co-worker needed Saturday (as well as the following Saturday) off, so we are switching (I was going to switch with her the following week, but my annual night with my friend was that Saturday, so I switched the Saturday switching with yet another co-worker who is helping out my other co-worker by working a Saturday).  If I include the Vikings the next day as work (and, yes, I work the Vikes this Sunday as well), I will be working seven days straight from Thursday to next Wednesday.  Guess I should recognize I should take it easy because it'll get a bit more hectic later on.
