I was smarter than the professors!
Tuesday, February 5th, 2008 04:12 pmOh joy. I can't help but roll my eyes and try really hard to refrain from clicking reply when I read that in communities. Talk about pride. And I'm pretty sure that I felt that way too when I was in college. All hopped up on myself and full of confidence and certainty. Way to not finish college though. Just repeat the refrain: I'll go back one day.
Every time I start a new job, I say to myself "This is going to be the job. I'll make this one into a career." But the more time passes, the more I end up looking at it as a way to just pass the time and pay the bills. It isn't that Talbots is bad. It is actually really easy and pays very well for the work that I do. Still, if I worked full time, I could pay off these bills faster. Thus putting us in a much better position to start procreating and moving us closer to getting out of the city and buying some land where I could then own more dogs and horses even. Or one horse at least. Trouble is that I have asthma which brings with it complications whenever I get sick. Mostly I cannot breathe if I'm conjested. This makes going to work for 7-8 hours and talking on a phone all day, extremely difficult. I just couldn't find any office jobs when I was job hunting and anyway I needed something later in the day. Too bad I now work 11 am - 6:30 p. That's not exactly later in the day is it?
Oh and we got the puppy neutered yesterday which wasn't fun for my husband. He missed his dog. So I got up early and went to pick him up. This getting up early is really messing up my sleep cycle though. I read that you aren't supposed to get as much sleep as you want, but once I fall back asleep it's like walking uphill through water to wake up. It's really difficult.
