I Meant to Sleep In Later
Well, I told myself that I was going to sleep until noon today, but I just couldn't do it. I couldn't even stay asleep until 9:30. I guess I am really bad at sleeping in. You see, this week I have started this horrible new job, so I have been getting up a 7 am. I realize that many many people have to get up much earlier for their horrible jobs, but to me 7 is early. That is why I planned to sleep in today, but failed.
I am now ready to describe my new job, though I warn that the details are not remotely exciting. The only thing more boring than hearing about my job is doing it. Basically, this company is doing a project to update the look of the Federal Trade Commission's website, and they needed to hire a team of miserable entry-level grunts to do all the legwork... that is, cutting and pasting all the content into the new templates. And I get to be one of those grunts. So, for the next two months I will be copying and pasting for eight hours a day (and making 16 dollars an hour to do so).
In order to get through this, I have become the zen master. I keep repeating my mantra in my head: "I like money. It's only two months. I like money. It's only two months." And then, when it's all over, I will be unemployed and clueless again. But at least I'll have a little money.
