You know, at some point over the years, I stopped hearing "department shift" and "new and exciting" and started hearing "holy shit, look out!" and "you're about to lose your job". I wonder when and why this shift to gloom and doom occurred? I suspect it only took one occurrence, whatever it was.
The part that's really sad? I've been through so many department/responsibility shifts where I preemptively freaked out and nothing happened that now I STAND on the instinct to freak out and tell myself I'm being ridiculous.
This is when the other shoe usually falls.
And also, do these responsibility shifts track with my career goals? Is this the direction I really want to go in? I feel rather ambivalent (hint: the answer is always "Yes; if you pay me more money.")
Sadly, more money does not appear to be forthcoming. Looks like I've got a couple of interesting months ahead, though.

The dentist today was almost pleasant--for the second time in as many weeks. In fact, I almost fell asleep THREE times. I started twitching and everything! And then I was like, oh, wait, the dentist wants me to close my mouth, he's TALKING to me. Come on, dude? Can't you see I'm trying to sleep, here?
So there I was, analyzing the situation (as I do), and wondering why I felt so relaxed as opposed to most other times I am in the dentist chair (which, with my teeth, is a LOT), and I figured out, hey! It's because I'm not having a fucking ROOT CANAL done this time! YAY!
In other news, I still cannot feel my upper lip. You gotta love it when they have you rinse at the end and you dribble water EVERYWHERE because your lip doesn't feel like it's even attached. It's very humanizing.
Also, I've felt drunk ever since leaving the dentist office, as again, I often do. I think it's something about the sound of the drills, and possibly my normal sinus problems compounded by drilling. It just wears me out and puts me in another zone. So, I am endeavoring to make my faux drunkness TRUE drunkness, which hey, is pretty easy on an empty stomach. I love being a cheap date! :)
After finishing my kick ass design for our SharePoint Portal home page today at work, I started writing the next part of the "Like Staring Into the Sun" verse, which is coming right along. I was looking forward to coming home and having an hour or so to write after the dentist's office, but then Voron called to talk to me about the end of Supernatural S1 (gratuitous icon post--I was all "did you see that ending?" and he was all "OMG, you had to wait all summer?"), beginning of S2. Which of course, I loaned them two weeks ago. Hahaha! More fans, coming right up! I wonder if I can get commission for my efforts? *G*
Okay, enough blather. It's dinner time! |
