Friday is a Million Miles Away
So, Identify that song!
Trick question actually, AFAIK there is no song with those lyrics(Though I'm waiting for one of my friends to dredge one up).
I am exhausted. This weekend I went to a party, watched Shakespeare, drank too much port, couldn't sleep, and woke up with a headache. More or less in that order, and repeated. So today I am dragging along, too tired even to take a nap during lunch.
On the plus side, my resume now reads that I've worked at this job for a year, though according to the earliest message I have in Outlook, I actually started on the 6th of last February. I am dimly amazed that I've lasted so long; I fully expected multiple times to be fired or quit, or for the business to go out of business, or be raided by the IRS, or...but we're still here. I feel kind of a perverse sense of accomplishment at being here as long as I have, kind of in a samurai "It's more honorable to serve a bad master loyally than a good one". Not that I'm inclined to serve all that well any more. And I may be here as much for my resume and a "better the crappy job you know than the unemployment line" attitude than anything resembling loyalty.
Still, I have this thing to cling to; I have survived here a year. I choose to feel good about that. And I have more UTGM posts coming out Real Soon Now. That makes me feel much better. Live for my hobbies, say I.
