I can't say I'm in love with my job. Can't say I'm in like with it either. But a day like today makes me feel every year wasted behind this desk, doing the same thing I've done for ten years. First I can't find my shoe, then it's my keys. I'm here ten minutes late to my first meeting and I realize I left my glasses on the kitchen counter.
Go for a cup of coffee and yank the filter out to soon so I've got brown spots all over my pink blouse. And I'm sitting here now doing a web conference with 10 idiots that speak a programming language even the Matrix couldn't figure out.
My birthday is Friday ugh, it lingers out there like some black cloud ready to move over and remind me how old I'm getting and how dull my life has been the past three years. Yeah I've accomplished a lot professionally but all in the wrong career, doing the thing that I was good at but not the thing that I loved. So as the clock ticks down on my thirties and I throw the fucker out of my office window, I know a day like today isn't really going to get any better.
So last night I was sitting out on my balcony and I had an itch for something to lighten my mood. Plugged up the laptop and started to surf LJ for some Uhura pics and fics. That's when I decided to join finally. Was really scared of coming on board at first. I just got to many irons in the fire and I obsess too much. Then went to the Star Trek movie and got all fangurl insane again. *sigh* So now I'm here. And on a day like today I can't focus on anything because that damn birthday is so near. Random yes but I'm really hoping that the 15th comes and goes quickly. I just don't want it to linger. Meetings, conference calls, boring project plans that make my head hurt. A day like today is really sucking. Double *sigh* oh well.
