Half-assed post
Oct. 17th, 2009 11:27 amMy personal cliche is "work is killing me" and the sub-plot is I'm helping it. The guy we hoped would come back the beginning of the year just woke up in a pool of blood...lots of karma hitting him at once - if he survives I hope he gains from it. For me it just means that soon...there is no soon. There is only further postponing when I can be working 40 hours a week and not fielding emails all weekend. For example - I took last week off, but volunteered to deal with the top priorities. One of those priorities was a meeting with the Administrator and 2 AAs, plus other big players, and writing various reports associated with all that mess. In short, my week off wound up with about 9 hours of leave taken (granted, there was a Columbus day in there).
Woke up with an injury with no source the other day. I am currently barely able to move my neck - stress and too much computering by chance? Want to make me grumpy - taking away my physical abilities is a fast route there. The thing that hurts the worst, oddly, is typing in front of a computer (though the pain is in my right shoulder/spine up into my neck.
I am still thinking this beginner gym program I'm doing is too beginner for me. I'm getting to the point where I am getting challenged, but my workouts seem so short. If I don't get the gains I'm looking for I'll move to something more like what i was doing but I have picked up some form pointers along the way.
M accidentally got me thinking about MD real estate again. I LOVE my condo and the area, but the fact I have to commute to work from there blows. B bought a reasonably priced simple home in Silv MD area and I'm thinking about that. M's peek to a 60k listing (that may be in error) got me checking out the sketchy areas around where I work in Beltsville. I see a place county-tax-appraised at 4-500k selling as a short-sale for 250k. A friend who works with a Dr that in a decent area of PGCounty, who was beaten nearly to death in a robbery after he quickly turned over his wallet, is begging me not to consider PGC at all. My job seems secure, but...does that make it pleasant? Maybe working home often is enough?
Janna asks me just enough if I'm always going to do this to myself to make sure it's in my head that...I promise everyone including myself this will not be my life.
