This post brought to you by a mosquito...
Aug. 10th, 2004 08:10 amYou know, the one that ensured I'd be awake long before I planned to be up, the one that droned about in the dark like a manic little bean of audible destruction until in annoyance I finally leaped out of bed? That mosquito. And suddenly I have time to post.
About what to post, I don't know. I've been something of a manic little bean myself, despite trying to stop. I thought I was so good for being all work-focused at work, until I realized I was being all work-focused at home too... still failing at compartmentalization. Anyone have any good mental tricks for completely switching gears? A change of clothes seems to help, and reading on the bus seems to help, but I'm still not really getting there. (Doesn't help that two people got fired for performance reasons last week, and I may lose a teammate in a couple of weeks... grrr.)
There's more I could say, but it's time to leave for the company picnic... yay for the picnic. Today, at least, shouldn't be stressful.
