Was it worth it?

A question that I have heard numerous times over the last 2 days. Most likely you have been asked this question or even asked yourself this question (maybe as you are falling in and out of sleep while driving home from a sleepless night). I've worked 14 hours on sundays for about a year now and it really isnt too bad after you get started, it even gives me an extra day off. So I dont mind working all day sunday, but it gets tough if you dont get any sleep the nights before. I wont give out the specefic details, so that I dont get yelled at, but I arrived at broski's house friday and we immediatley took to the tennis court to obliterate some chikas that thought they could handle yours truly. After we had dispossed of the "brats" we took to wingstop then went back to the house to play some pong, which I am amazing at. The night flew by and everyone went home at 4 am. Through all the rain and exploding thunder I was able to sleep like a baby, even though my skinny butt froze. Woke up around 10 and with 6 hours of sleep I accompanied broski to eat and watch some quality college basketball. I wont get on my soapbox about my bracket since I agree with my dad that real experts cant predict "March Madness" but I will say that my champion, West Virginia, and somebody elses champion has already lost, Kansas. lol sorry just had to point that out again. But back to the question of was it worth it, you usually ask this as you are going through a rough next day after doing something the day/night before. I didn't have to drive 8 hours home, which I have decided I would rather work 14 hours than sit in a car for 8 hours through the snow. But knowing before what was going to be ahead the next day I stayed up Saturday night and drove back home at 10 on Sunday. I arrived in Mansfield a little after 11 and went to work at 12. The drive home was a blur since I was drifting in and out of sleep, but the work day was even worse because I had to figure out a way to stay awake and keep my speech from slurring. So I tried to stay awake by texting some of my friends and was asked by some of them, "Was it worth it?" and my answer for all was yes, except broski's his was only Hell YA! And I stand by that and say hell ya it was worth it.
