Last day of freedom. Really not looking forward to going back to work tomorrow, like, I'd rather be shot in the face. I've been trying to find a new job but there just isn't much open, and the stuff that is is mostly VB/C#.NET and I really don't want to work with that, I could because I know both languages, but I just really don't want to. The point of finding a new job is to be happier and I'm pretty sure that wouldn't make me happy. I think a big part of my unhappiness at work is that I'm going nowhere, I'm not getting more responsibilities, I'm not getting new areas to work on, it's just the same old maintenance crap with a project thrown in here and there. And if I'm just going to be a lowly programmer, why not go somewhere I can get paid twice as much?
Haven't done much this weekend, spent all day saturday just kinda sitting on the couch, either watching TV or listening to the radio. Did my laundry too I guess, but that's not a whole lot of fun. Sunday I went out and got a Brewers baseball jersey and rented a few movies. Watched Taken last night, it was good. Gonna watch My Best Friends Girl and Cadillac Records sometime this week. Today so far I did dishes and worked out, but no plans for the rest of the day, probably more sitting on the couch watching TV or movie.
I think I'm canceling my Dells trip, just realized that going down by myself is probably going to be more depressing than not going at all. I just wish I could take off for like a week or 2, I think it would do wonders for my psyche, clear my head so I can maybe get over some things and go back to work and not hate it so much. But I've already used half my vacation days (after 3 years I still only have 5) and need to spread the rest out a bit since they have to last me the rest of the year. Certainly there will be times later on where I feel like I'm going to explode and need a 3 day weekend.
Well, hope everyone enjoys their Memorial Day.
