So why, now, in all of my inactivity, do I feel equally exhausted?
I'm 99.99999% it's boredom. Probably because the sedentary nature of my job has softened both my brain and my body. To the point of ridiculousness, really. I entered college seven years ago, and emerged from it three and a half years ago, and now I feel in some ways decrepit, underutilized, under-appreciated. (In the professional realm of my life, that is.)
There are just times when I sit at my desk, after all of the menial tasks that have been dumped on me have dissipated, where I just feel exhausted. I think of all the things that I could accomplish, all the tasks I could complete. Yet the weather is foreboding and cold. Which increases my weariness.
Thank heavens it's Friday.

Well if it means anything, I think you are fabulous at your job.
oh well thank you. you just might be the only one. ;)
I feel ya, Lauren. I really do. American Studies seemed like such a wonderful major at the time. ;)
I can definitely relate...isn't it easy to think about grad school after a couple of years of working? I'm thinking the late nights and endless papers are sounding better and better (and somehow fulfilling in a really sick way) all the time.

Pregnant?
You don't have to answer that. I've just got babies on the brain lately. Plus everyone else I know is pregnant, so...it works.
just got back from a baby shower actually, and two of the other girls there were also pregnant.
i was not one of them. so no, not pregnant.
I think you're intelligent, talented and fun. It's frustrating to not always have those qualities used to their fullest. But one thing I have realized more and more in life is that the job is temporary. You are permanent.
Just a thought from a parting TSG'er. =)
