Hooray for you!
 
But yeah, tired.  And the headaches. I have to keep reminding myself that I was going crazy bored when I didn't have a job because now I'm just going crazy in different ways.  If it's not one damn thing it's another, I guess.

I think that's because of people. Every job I ever had would have been so much better if it weren't for those damn co-workers and supervisors.

My attention was drawn to another window and now I forget what I was going to type here.

Carry on.

Is this the first recorded instance of walking into a room and forgetting why you are there... On the internet?

Hmm.  I'm at the opposite point.  I've just completed my first week of unemployment.  It's spring break here, so the kids have been off school and Mrs. West took a weeks vacation.  So we've all been home.  I took the week off too.

I was due a vacation -- it's been at least 5 years since I took a week straight, and I've had sufficient stress in my life recently that I was able to justify goofing off all week to myself.  Also, I needed some time to contemplate my next move.  I think I've decided.

Anyhow, I took a nice hike today along the Kentucky River Pallisades.  After that I stopped at the Camp Nelson National Cemetary and saw a bunch of Civil War graves.  Things are astoundingly green here, plus the forsythia and tulip trees are all in bloom.  Jonquils are everywhere.  It's very nice.

Monday, I go back to work with a vengance.

Oh man, truer words were never spoken.

I thought it was because zoo people aren't people people.  I guess I feel a little better to know it's true all over and some other kind of job wouldn't solve the problem.

And braindead. I don't have the effort to do much once I get home anymore. It's just the time I'm not working. But it kicks ass. It's like being a kid again, when I wanted so much to be a real web monkey. And then I gave up on that and yet it transpires.

You're going to enlist in a Kentucky Civil War Reenactment brigade?
Can you make money at that?

Seriously, glad to know it's not going to be a big deal transition for you. However, getting fired and then on Monday, going back to work "with a vengeance" is sometimes a pretty bad thing....Stay off the Beach, Pat!

I've been at my desk for 3 hours and I've honestly done less than 1 hr of work.

Didn't do a whole lot today. Well, that's a lie. Tomorrow I get to spend half the day installing XP and various design programs on my formerly home computer. Thus, even more not working. Shucks.
