The late shift last night was awful. How could I do so many things in so little time? The answer – I either do it fast and not particularly well or not at all. Both options were employed yesterday and as a result when I eventually got to my bed (in the early hours of the morning) I kept waking up every couple of hours thinking about stories. I was sure I has attributed someone’s quote to the wrong person and eventually got up at 7.30am and checked the paper’s website to see if I had been published. I hadn’t but when I got to work the story was fine and I had done it right. Sadly the small story I did about a car crash wasn’t as well done (although was correct) because of time limitations I did a bit of a half hearted job and it was only about six paragraphs in the end. Unfortunately the rival paper did a better job and splashed on it for their front page. I know we wouldn’t have done that because it’s not that sort of paper but it would have maybe been a page lead. I have to keep telling myself to do things better – it’s not the sort of paper where you can get away with it.
Anyway I got to work today and because of my sleepless night was sooooo tired. I did Tai Chi at lunch (paid for by the company) and afterwards I felt tired and achy.
