stayed up late, had a bit of sleep in
I'm allowed to have a long weekend too!
I stayed up working until 7am, then slept the rest of the morning in preparation for working again tonight.
Two 12 hour night shifts certainly make it feel like I'm having a very loooong weekend too!
I sometimes miss having a long weekend at the same time as everyone else, but condensing all the work into 12 hour shifts basically means I get a long weekend every week, so I can't really complain! And they pay out the day off in leiu for the public holiday, so the extra pay this week is a bit nice as well.
