Mac & Cheese. With Attitude.

Uggggghhhhhhhhhhhh...

I work the overnight shift at my job. Most weekends. It's a great job, really. But it is SO hard to stay awake all night. I really have to get creative in order to find things to do. And most of the things I do are done with the appropriate amount of Cody-attitude.

Here I am making mac & cheese with attitude.

Unfortunately, eating is one of the ways I stay awake. No wonder I have so much trouble sticking to a healthy diet.

Here I am eating the mac & cheese. With attitude.

Of course, I don't just sit and eat alone in the dark. Although the above photo would have you believe that. I have to find other distractions as well.

Watching "Monk" with attitude.

"Monk" is a very interesting show. Whenever I watch it, I feel my quirks and compulsions bubble to the surface. I suddenly get the urge to type all the dialogue on my lap. That is one of my things. I do it at the movie theatre all the time. I just can't help it. I also start twitching my hips and counting. It is truly maddening.

Featuring the comedy stylings of Tony Shalhoub.

In case you didn't know, the show is about a detective with severe, acute OCD. Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Of course, this leads to some interesting situations. He has a fear of his very occupation.

Now, to redirect this discussion back to the subject of me, I believe that I have mild OCD. This is not a huge deal. Personally, I think everyone has it. Just in varying degrees and with different quirks.

So I am sitting at work right now. Just waiting for the sun to come up and end my misery. Eating mac & cheese, watching monk, and twitching my hips. With my trademark scowl. These 16 hour shifts will be the death of me. On the bright side, I am thoroughly enjoying life! Got a date tonight. :)
