Some sleep has resulted in a slightly brighter outlook on life this morning, but the weather is doing it’s damndest to offset it. Grey & cold and generally non-motivating.
Work is freaking me out right now. We’re understaffed, and it’s taking its expected toll. Found out via the grapevine last week that they put out a peer review on me, and I am not due for a review til June - coworker is convinced it’s cause they want to put me to second line, but my thoughts tend to run towards the less than pleasant options, such as ending up in trouble over something or worse. Rather unsettling to know that higher ups are talking about you, but not to you.
Had a dream last night that I was in the Army, and was very happy to be there, and was very ready to do Army things of running, jumping, climbing trees & shooting at things. I had a platoon I was to be responsible for, and I was walking to the barracks to yell at them all to get up and get going, when someone says, “No, you have to do this briefing” and hands me a bunch of power point slides, so I go do this briefing on things I know nothing about, and at the end, everyone is telling me I did a great job and now I get to do it all the time… So much for running and jumping, climbing trees and shooting at things… I was very distressed over the whole thing, trying to explain that I had a platoon I needed to tend to, but no one cared. Very odd.
In other developments, one of my Mom’s friends is coming down for a weekend in March, and my presence is required for a gals night out. Should be fun, she’s like a second Mom to me and I always enjoy seeing her. However, combined with a potential trip to San Diego in June to hang w/Mom & her boss while they’re at a conference there, I see a slightly disturbing trend of spending my free time hanging with 50 something women…
The one thing I have accomplished this morning is doing a bit of rearranging to the photo gallery index, I’m just not sure I like it or not yet. Haven’t overwritten the old version yet, just in case I change my mind.
