Sometimes it's the little things
May. 25th, 2006 08:09 pmI've spent nearly four hours in the car today thanks to various crashes on both the journey in and the journey home. Can't wait to find something with a sane commute where four hours of driving is a rare occurance rather than a weekly excursion.
But today was the least unpleasant day of the week so far, work-wise, which isn't saying much but at least gave me a tiny bit of a break. Oddly enough, I've made several job applications and eagerly spoken to a couple of agencies this week. Can't imagine why I'm making such an effort on that front...
At least I've got a bank holiday weekend coming up and might stand a hope of getting some rest. And tomorrow I get to wear jeans to work :-)
I think that I'm too shell-shocked to really comment on anything fun or non-worky. It would certainly be easier to handle this workload and commute if I truly enjoyed the work or was excited about the projects that I'm working on, but I'm not so weeks like this become more than a wee bit wearing. Particularly when I'm revisting the same issue every day and the projects on my schedule won't really be a break from it. So, you know, new job needed in all ways now.
