Ohio, October trip

After some ambiguity over whether I'd be able to take the time off work, I'll be going with my parents to visit my paternal grandmother in Ohio next week. We're leaving after my shift Sunday. Time off requests are verboten from the second half of November through the first week of January, so I won't be going anywhere again until at least the second week of January.

As usual, I stocked up with books from the library. I imagine I'll do most of my reading in the car or early in the morning. (I thought I'd finished adjusting to my early morning schedule, but have been tired this week and going to bed closer to 5 PM; on my days off, I wake up anywhere between 3 and 8 AM.)
