I know I haven't posted too much lately, but this will be my third weekend in a row that I'm heading back to Tuscaloosa. I'm shooting all the Bama games this year, and to be honest, I'm very weary. The guys back at the station don't know, but today is basically my 20th day in a row for work. Monday through Thursday I'm pulling regular reporter duty. Friday is reporting and shooting high school football.
This third Saturday in a row takes me back to T-Town (I leave in less than an hour). Sundays, I'm usually driving back from Tuscaloosa, then spending a few hours in the bureau getting highlights edited and interviews narrowed down. The next two weekends, despite them being road games, I'll still be traveling with family and friends. The two weekends after that will be spent right back in Tuscaloosa.
If you know me, you know I'm a "home" type of guy. I cherish my days off, and I prefer to spend them in-town and around the house. I'm not catching a Saturday to myself until October 21. If it sounds like I'm complaining, yeah, you're right.
I'm pretty frustrated and tired. This week, work wore me out (especially after a 14-hours-straight Friday). It would be nice to not be committed somewhere. I enjoy Tuscaloosa, but I'm tired of seeing Bama just eeking through these no-name games.
Yeah, I know. it could be worse.

I am comforted to hear that I'm not the only one who doesn't have a Friday anymore...working 6 days a week..granted friday's are like half days...but still...football, I never knew you were so cruel
Have we all forgotten a little how called "Football Friday?!?!?!" Don't get me started on cruel. (there, now my blood pressure went up.) ;)
