I left my house this morning giving myself an extra 10 minutes on top of the 1/2 hour I THOUGHT I had as "flex" time thinking that earlier is less traffic and I'd breeze to work and be at my desk at least 15 minutes before 8 to surf the net and do PERSONAL stuff until starting time.
Yeah. Right.
One wreck stoppage, one construction site amazement slowdown and a highway patrol traffic break for debris later I was pulling into my parking spot as the guy on the radio said "It's eight o'clock." I RAN up the stairs and came into the office less than 60 seconds later. Whew!
New plan: leave an additional 15 minutes earlier, bring breakfast and my newspaper with me, then sit in the car in the parking lot and have breakfast and read my paper.
I also moved my shrink appointment up a week. I'll probably be switching meds. Despite being exhausted all day, at 10pm last night I was wide awake. I MADE myself go to bed at 11 and couldn't sleep for the longest time. Something isn't right. My brain is insisting on being active on my natural internal clock's schedule. Unfortunately that doesn't work with my job. It didn't used to be this hard. Well, we'll get to the bottom of it later today.
Eric wasn't upset about the whole fiasco. He's been wanting me to leave this job for years. He thinks my boss is being a total asshole and that he doesn't appreciate all the stuff I do and the late hours I've worked on a regular basis not to mention the weekend artwork and voice-over stuff I've provided on my own time. Eric said he wants me to leave for my hour lunch and to leave at 5PM no matter what is going on. I plan to. This is a two way street.
I'm so lucky to have him!
