This is a day off. The weather will be perfect. I should be having fun (I'm not), getting tons of stuff done (I'm not), or really just relaxing in a way that feels good. Instead, I still feel tired. I go to bed but can't sleep, but anything but the tv (which isn't working right now) makes me feel too tired. I'm tired writing this. I seem to feel liek this all the time - it's not depression, it's not associated with other cold symptoms...I just feel kinda icky. So I'm whining on LJ even though that makes me tired too. While I'm at it, this giant sub-teranian zit on the end of my nose making me look like bozo the clown is kinda cheesing me off too.

I am, however, applying for a job at Patent in employment law. It's virtually the same job I have now, only it's a noncompetitive promotional ability to the GS-15 level - and with any luck it's not the midst of attacks from above, besides, and within like my current political mess. The one thing I've done is prepare what I can of that job application - the first one I've filled out in at least 2 years. But holy shit - edumacated staffs, office within walking distance of an Alexandria, VA metro station, non-competitive to the GS-15 level...fucking duh and hell yeah I'm jumping at this one.

I worked out yesterday, will today even if it is just running 2-4 miles. The rest of BORING today will be run, nachos, sleep if I'm lucky, go to murky and coffee/read, wash coffee smell away, go to happy hour in Rosslyn. Then sleep. Actually, the one time I don't feel tired is when I drink. So, I must have acute mononucleosis-alcohol-reactive syndrome, acquired from the disease-ridden slums of Chile.

Oooh, I hear good things about PTO. They are really into telecommuting and work/life stuff. Good luck!

Thanks - that's actually really important to me. If I still get all the benefits I have now, only with...well shit more benefits and less minuses...yeah, wish me luck on this one!

HA! Fell asleep to the sound of my job materials printing. Now I go running. Grr!

could this sluggishness be due to a vitamin deficiency? nachos and coffee do not a complete meal make.

DO NOT INSULT MY COFFEE AND NAHCOS! What's next, questioning the vitality that comes from chocolate? Have you no god at all, heathen?!

everyone knows chocolate is the best; you'll be getting no argument from me on that one.

however, perhaps you should get some spinach salad type stuff as a side w/your nachos, just so's you get some iron and various vitamins in your system.

that little powerpuff monster icon makes me smile every time you use it; I keep imagining her saying the "rrrr, arrrgh!" that was always played at the end of buffy:tvs episodes.
