I need better icons suddenly.

So work is interesting. That's probably the wrong word to use. Work is uninteresting and it seems more like time-filler, where the real work seems to be getting along with people, being social, making a mean cup of coffee, keeping a stock of sticky notes, rearranging filing, and going to the bathroom.

(I work in government.)

I'm mostly just a support bitch, but I get paid more than the usual temps and the environment is nice. Ummm. This made more apparent to me when I applied for and failed to get a job in the same floor, for the role I was currently assisting with. As in the job I am doing now, is the job I applied for, only higher pay grade, and I DIDN'T GET IT which was a little embarrassing which is the main reason I didn't tell anyone right away as opposed to heartbreak. It was rough but not THAT rough, but people who liked me were concerned and nice and it was somewhat awkward.

And then my boss, the HR guy and comms colleague ambushed me in an office to tell me I am very valued, apologised for the way I was told (which was very quickly and secretly) and there would be lots of room for me to work next year as I desire. Primary reason I didn't score this one was down to experience, that I interviewed fine, etc etc.

I am a suspicious person and feel a little led down the garden path, but there's really no reason for me to be so. Except for, I guess, low self-esteem. Ho HO.

Social life, it-- I am just too tired to maintain it. But I keep meaning to. Maybe this week.

Game! Game is good. Little stressful. New storyline that is finicky and unwieldy but hopefully worth it once it's really on a roll. I'm a little anxious but I'm always a little anxious about anything that's my responsibility (which may be why I've been a little anxious for the past year and three-quarters now). I enjoy writing in it and outside of it. I wish I could write better on my own but I'm working on it.

I'll write a book one day it's gonna be awesome. Especially when I stop waiting for someone else to pose back to me when I try.
