Toast
Good thing I fixed that display only the last 7 days issue on here, or else there'd just be an empty space here. I've been working a lot, starting new projects which rely on skills I used to have when people paid me far more money :) Richard's in Amsterdam this week, and St. Louis next week. I'm here holding down the fort and tending to the menagerie. Unlike past trips, I haven't even begun cleaning anything really. Work is just so busy, and I'm still trying to project plan that so I don't feel so overwhelmed.
One of the issues I'd been avoiding at my current job is the fact that it's not very challenging. Day to day I do very little work, and parts of the job that required lots of effort in the beginning, are now routine busy work. I have some new opportunities doing some technical writing/information architecture, which is something that I am passionate about and enjoy doing. BUT, having been a mindless cog for so long in the current machine has made me a bit lazy and completely out of shape intellectually. I'm feeling the burn, so much so that I'm going to take the rest of the evening off to regroup.
