Traveling with Dad always brings surprises. At 3 a.m., the motel room suddenly lights up like high noon. I shoot up, bleary-eyed, and there he is—wide awake, smiling, and asking, “Oh, are you up?” as if we’ve both just had a full night’s rest. I mumble something about it still being the middle of the night, but by 4 a.m., he’s at it again—lamps blazing, ready to start the day. It’s equal parts exhausting and endearing. You’ve got to laugh, because sometimes that’s the only way to stay awake and sane.

The Graveyard Shift / Il Turno di Notte for #spookysaturday episode 8
Night guard at a rural cemetery wasn't exactly the job you were looking for, but these past six months have actually been great. Nice and quiet, nobody to bother you, decent pay!
Tonight's the same routine as ever: check all the gates are locked, quick sweep along the outer walls, note any signs of damage, walk your regular routes and watch out for anybody who shouldn't be there. Same old same old, but you don't mind, you like the familiarity.
Oh, someone’s left the lights on in the crypts again. Better turn them off. As you get closer, you hear sounds - muffled voices and footsteps. Great. They’d warned you about teenagers sneaking in for a dare. Heading down the stairs, you call out "Okay, fun's over. Time to go home".
No answer. You walk down one of the corridors. You can hear footsteps and voices ahead of you, so you speed up and turn the corner quickly. Nothing. Damn, these guys are fast.
"You're not in trouble. You just can't be in here now".
More mumbling and shuffling. You turn corner after corner for – what? – 20 minutes? Has the crypt always been this big? You decide if you leave the door open, they'll eventually go home. You try to retrace your steps, peering down corridors – you don't remember it looking like this before. Did you take a right or a left here? Don’t remember this dead end…
You realize that the voices and footsteps have stopped. There’s now complete silence. Then the lights go out. Pitch black. You start feeling your way along the walls.
The voices are back, but they’re no longer muffled.
"It's our turn to chase you."
And the footsteps are clearer too. And faster. Much faster.

A Foghat ear worm out on deck as I wait for the latest iteration of Northern Lights. Hopefully, the bigass Wisconsin Public Service yard light I have will cut me some slack in the viewing department. This tune packs a helluva guitar riff (thanks Lonesome Dave and Rod Price).

I know I post this a lot, but it all works better when I can at least get enough boosts. Thank you for your consideration.
I am interning in the emergency dept on night shift from 7pm to 6am. I still have 360 hours left as a student intern. Below is my gfm, as I’ve been financially challenged as I go closer to graduating in December with my masters in social work

What is up #nightshift ?
@fibrearts @crochet As promised, here are some photos of my current WIP. I’m working on a crocheted top called Spiderdream. It’s an asymmetrical construction so I’ve done one sleeve and shoulder and am working across the body to the second shoulder. The yarn is from a 2023 advent calendar. #crochet #fibrearts #nightshift #garmentconstruction
If you liked Twisted Love by Ana Huang and Grey's Anatomy and also a sassy FMC/grumpy MMC/workplace romance kind of book, then Night Shift is the book for you.
I'm currently reading Night Shift by Evie James and Craig Richards, and wow its made me blush and giggle like I'm a teenager and not a 37 year old woman and I'm only just over halfway through it.
