I’ve been back at work for exactly 9 weeks now. As they say, plus ça change, plus c’est pareil…
Few adventures in getting settled back into my digs, with network connections not quite working… the usual stuff. Changed window side. Facing the west now, so I get all the afternoon sun … hmmmm… that helps lift the spirits a bit.
It’s tough, I’d lost the habit of the 9-5 pace. Haven’t quite found it yet either, LOL! I feel pretty jet-lagged most of the time, as I try to cram both the job and my web hobbies into the same 24 hours which are simply not enough. Oh, well… shouldn’t complain, at least I still got a job.
Actually the part I hate the most about this deal is the commuting. Unfortunately my employer isn’t open to the notion of telecommuting. I find I get anxiety attacks regularly while driving. Either because of some idiot who is riding my bumper, angry that I’m still ahead of him though already 20Km over the speed limit due to all the pushing, or due to our notoriously bad roads full of huge potholes combined with the high winds of late that seem to want to push my car off the road. They all contribute to me feeling queasy every so often, like when you ride a rollercosater. When that happens it’s quite scary, I need to get off the road and calm down. Not good, not good at all. I wish I could just take the train but it’s not working out schedule-wise.
I find I look forward to the end of the day and end of the week a lot more than I used to.
