The ups and downs.

My regular day has turned radically irregular. I call this "the cycle" because it's a daily struggle to figure out whether or not I'm happy. People say to me - if you don't like your job, then leave it. And I think that I've found a tipping point-- it's if 4 or more times a day I think about finding something better.

This is kind of how it goes now:
8:24 a.m. @#$%@ traffic. I need to find something better.

8:53 a.m. Ooh. Look. A deer. It's so beautiful down here. I like that I can chill for an hour and a half each morning and listen to music.

9:03 a.m. See? Work isn't that bad. I'm so needed.

10:53 a.m. Jerks. I hate it here. Why do i stay.

11:59 a.m. I'm leaving for lunch and not coming back.

3:04 p.m. Oh, look. A nice email from a client. They really like me.

5:49 p.m. Wow, my days really fly.

6:14 p.m. How do I get my boss out of my office so that I can go home?

When do you take your nap?

That is the best part of the work day!

i used to nap between exits 48 and 47 on the merritt, but alas, traffic cops frown on that :)
