So this week was interrupted by me coughing at 2am and staying home sick for a day, then coming back in to work and feeling like a total idiot. I'm not sure what is wrong with me lately. I keep wondering if I'm suffering from a head injury or suffering early onset Alzheimer's. I've been forgetting very simple very basic things and making really dumb mistakes. Either I'm losing my passion and excitement for my job or I'm just not able to focus.
I really hope this is temporary, because I don't want to fall into a slump where I get written up or get to my review next year and have it drop from where it was. I always worry that if I do really well for so long that there might be some appreciable plummeting of my performance, but it doesn't normally happen. In a year where I thought I just did ok and was only doing my job, I got a $1,000 bonus and a decent sized raise. I'm being negative, sorry.
I went back over my old blogs (I'm weird, just humor me) and realized how whiny they were. I will try harder to be positive and have something interesting to post about.
So, what is everyone up to or into right now? Any new books or games you would recommend? I need some new nonfiction that isn't political, although I'm really interested in presidential biographies right now. I'm also thinking about going to the open house for The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. Don't they say most people studying Psychology are in need of a little psychological help themselves?
They say a lot, don't they?
I know math and science likely play a part in this. I'm not worried about it. I want a field to go into once I go back for my BA, one that doesn't involve more literature. I love literature, but on a personal level. Literature for classwork just bores me to tears unless the professor is really engaging and engaged in what they are doing.
Ask me no questions, and I'll tell you no lies.
Ok, that's not true. I answer questions. I just tend to keep myself wrapped a little too tight. Uncomfortable silences during a conversation suck.
Ok, off to work out. Week 4!
I kid! It's important, it really is.

psychological help themselves? "
Sadly, I have seen this proven true, even with my own shrink.
(that crazy Mormon)
Have you been sleeping ok?
That tends to effect my memory.
My husband is the exact same way with his job. Always worrying about his productivity when the bosses think he's handling things well. He used to take a light 'script for anxiety that seemed to level him out more, but quit them so he could qualify for a better rate on his insurance. Always saving a buck...
