Training Day....

Well, I have to be at work at 8am. It's my "Annual Training Day". I'm required to spend two Wednesdays a year in training from 8am to 5pm to keep my certification as a law enforcement officer. Mind you, this is strictly class room training. I also have physical fitness tests, shooting proficiency and stress tests that I must do every year as well. However, the latter of the training is actually....fun. This class room business? Notsomuch.

Now, most of you know I work the "graveyard shift" from 6pm to 6am. I am not used to actually sleeping at night so today is going to be difficult. I attempted to go to bed at midnight last night. I woke up at 2am. Oops!

So, I'm up, rocking out to my future husband Tom Petty and having a leisurely morning. The great thing is, I get to dress in civilian clothes (read: jeans) today! Woo-hoo! So I picked out some cute jeans, black flats, one of my favorite Target tees. I'll take my Northface jacket as well since they keep it about -5 in the training room.

I'm feeling pretty good right about now (minus the rib pain, that is getting better), but I know come about noon....The Pink Police Owl is gonna be super sleepy! Thank God for my Blackberry today, so I can Twitter, check blogs, Perez Hilton, etc all day during the boring parts!

This training is so incredibly boring, ohmygodyouhavenoidea, and is a conglomeration of bad videos and a few officers, ahem, trying to teach me about safe driving. But, I'm gonna hit up McDonald's for breakfast and put on my happy face today. At least I don't have to work tonight! Nope, I'm sure I'll be sleeping!

Smooches,
~K
