Just Another Work Day
I went to work today. I know it's a bad idea to talk about work on your blog, so I'll be vague. I have been in a slump for a while, that I couldn't seem to get out of. I have been doing my job alright, but I'm referring to my general attitude toward being there. I guess everyone goes through it. Anyway, back to today. I was expecting just another Tuesday, but somehow today had a different feel. I was inspired, I was motivated, I wanted to be there. It was like how I used to feel about going to work. I have been working especially hard lately, paying close attention to deadlines, and other such things that I generally avoid. They seem so unimportant and far away until they are behind you, running you down. Now they're no longer chasing me. Maybe getting ahead is allowing me to appreciate right now, the task at hand, and the reason I am really here. I have always loved my job, but I have a tendency to get bogged down in busywork, to the point that I forget why. I have a new outlook. I am happy. I have much I want to accomplish, and it all seems possible. I am going to make a difference, if only to myself. Working to the best of my ability always makes me feel good. I know this post has been kind of cheesy so I promise that it's over.

It's not a cheesy post at all, you dork! LOL It's good that you have a job that makes a difference in this world. You're such a good person that I know it benefits the kids you work with, and they're lucky to have you.

It's an awesome feeling when you're enjoying your work. You have a very rewarding job, that not everyone has the ability to excel at, so it's really cool to see you happy with it again.
I'm glad you're back to yourself Jen. I know you love your job. all of us get a little run down with work once in a while and think "why am i doing this again?"
cant wait to see you on saturday. oh yea, our mutual friend may be coming to hang out with us for a bit on saturday. *grin*
Yay for getting ahead! Yay for diggin your job! Yay for cheesy posts!

Rock on Jenn, rock on!
You can never fucking use the fucking fuck word too fucking much either!
Work can be a great thing if you love what you do. Oh and as far as getting behind, isn't it so much easier to work when it's kicking down your door and screaming in your face, or is that just me
