and now the boring
Some days are fun and exciting, some days are long and boring. One of the grants we have in our office entails a survey that we are sending out to university presidents in the US, today I'm doing the grunt work of calling over 100 institutions to get the email addresses. These are the ones we couldn't not find online.
I need a minion.
On the upside my boss wants me to be writing all the things I do for the office. They originally thought they wanted and needed an executive admin and I've picked up and proven that I can do a whole lot more. I just wish I could get rid of the boring phone/calendar scheduling part of my job.

On a similar note, earlier this week I began rethinking about where I am and where I want to be. The short answer is I have no idea where I want to be and that frustrates and depresses me. I'm in a good job now and I intend on being here for awhile - I am learning so much - but it is a job and I don't seem to have any direction or voice outside of my office. Right now my life doesn't have any goal and that leaves me in a very strange place.
