WORK WORK WORK
We worked today, and we are working tomorrow! Today was a full 8-5 day, but tomorrow hopefully will not be so long. We are going in at 10, and I am hoping to leave by... oh... 10:30? Maybe? But probably not.
Today was actually fairly stressful! I was given a project that involved deciding how things should be set in the system, but it was all very subjective and opinion-based and involved things that I know nothing about. And to make it more exciting, I was given contradictory instructions at one point. But I bravely soldiered through it, and made it make sense to me. And if it is wrong, well, that's what they get for making me do it. So there :P
(Also the changes I made are not really tracked by the system so it won't have my initials all over it, that helped relieve the stress, plus it's the kind of thing that is so subjective that it's wildly inconsistent all the time anyways)
So! I am working this weekend, but I will have a pass to Not Work next weekend, so I can MOOOOVE. I am so excited! Four days! I can say that because it is after midnight and therefore it is technically Sunday.
I had something else to say, but I forgot.
Oh! But I do want to say this: One of my little side-goals for 2008 is to whine less in my journal. Like in this post, instead of whining about how stressful and worrisome this project was, I didn't whine, and even made light of it! I think that this will be a good thing because a) who wants to hear whining?, and b) making light of it reduces the stress for ME. So! It is my goal. So far I am successful! 6 days down, 360 to go!
