The time of my life now
One part of what people in the department I work in do is community education. There are several topics that they teach people in the community about - among them Parenting, Fatherhood,and Abstinence/Character Education.
They have the people in these classes do a Pre-Test, a Post-Test, and an Evaluation form. Part of my job involves entering data in a computer from some of these tests. For whatever reason, the one I enter the most is the one on Abstinence/Character Education.
The Abstinence/Character Education one is just what it sounds like - they teach abstinence-only education and character-building exercises. They do big classes of high school and middle school children, so I get stacks of these things to enter in - I have to add up the results, put them into charts, and put them in a computer system. I also have to record the comments (some of which are hilarious, but most of which are not).
The stack I'm working on right now includes almost 200 of each sheet - Pre-Test, Post-Test, and Evaluation.
When I'm at work doing boring things that I don't have to think about, I listen to my iPod, so I was listening to my iPod while doing this. I had been sitting in this chair for a long time, and my back was hurting. I was also tired - not because I hadn't slept, but because this was so mind-numbingly boring that it MADE me tired.
Then, the song, "Time of Your Life," off a Paul Oakenfold album, came on. The chorus goes, "This is the time of your life, This is the time of your life now" over and over again.
As the evidence clearly shows, this was NOT, in fact, the time of my life...now.
