Jun. 1st, 2009 06:05 pmI'm stronger...like Britney Spears.
Work is kicking my ass, but I can't help but notice I'm better at every aspect of my job, and getting much better at working harder, longer, on more things simultaneously. I don't want to keep doing this - it suxor (remember when i had time to write LJ from work?) but I'm proud that I'm able to do it. I only wish someone but my immediate boss appreciated it.
Regarding our bizarro inter-agency battle, I got comments from a high-ranking official that they greatly appreciated my professionalism at the bitch-fest, and noted I have always been professional in her experience. Neato, somebody noticed. I wasn't so professional when I found the rescheduled meeting for this week is titled "F/U" for follow up. I told my coworker "I dunno, I think this is the 2nd F-U meeting..."
I've also gotten much better about leaving work at work mentally. I have help - Janna, somehow when I see her everything just kind of slides away. Mmm good.
Stronger like Britney Spears w/o the back-up dancers, the gym and I are getting back together. Not sure why, but today was a strong day in the gym. I put on another lb, so I just exceeded my tolerance zone for play-tummy, but then after eating all that weekend food I made some gains in the gym. It's not just weight - I have visible more tummy jiggle. I guess this is working out for me, this stupid sine wave of trying to get strong and eating, then trying to be svelte and being responsible. Why can't there be chocolate tuna whey mousse?
Every year around this time I take the time to celebrate how much money I keep saving on father's day!
