I have been so overwhelmed and exhausted, which has also lead me to become so boring. I used to go out at least five times a week. Some of those nights I would just have one beer, but most of them..I’d have more…much more, than just one.
Basically all summer I worked a full time job and a part time internship. The beauty of the internship is if I wasn’t feeling up to it, energy wise or health wise, I could call in and they would be super supportive of my decision not to come in. Now, I am working a full time job and a part time job..which I can’t call out of. So, last week and this week I have been working 8am-11pm. It is driving me crazy. I am tired, and by the night’s end..anti social.
I miss going out with my friends. I miss Hamilton’s Tavern. I got invited to a dinner gathering at Spencer’s tonight..a whole stuffed chicken, rack of lamb, blue cheese polenta and tons of wine. When do I ever turn down a free meal..especially in the company of good friends..and especially when the people cooking it are professional chefs???? If that’s not an indication of how tired and out of it I am..I don’t know what is.
Come next week I will have a normal job, where I will only work eight hours a day. Until Monday though, everyday I will contemplate stabbing myself with a pen while sitting at a desk for 15 hours a day. I feel an intervention coming on.
