Summer Comes, Summer Goes
Hello my kitties,I hear the thunder of footsteps returning from senior stumble that tells me that it's almost time for the seniors to graduate. It's only a few short days away, and I'm dealing with a little sadness over it, but hey, if I did my job, they will all fly. If I didn't, I blame someone else. JK. Good luck, class of 2006. I raise my non-alcoholic beverage to you.
I'm looking forward to time off because I'm a little burned out, and I've been busting ass to make sure people look good. God knows, that alone takes a little bit of work. Professional life is hard enough, and I've learned my lessons sometimes the hard way, but having said good bye to my intern today, I can only hope that she learned something from me. Knowing me, it was definitely the hard way.
Professional life isn't all that it's cracked up to be. Politics, survival, self-reliance and self-awareness: mantras for sure, but there's even more. Intuition. Knowing who needs you and who you need. Understanding the difference between working hard and working efficiently. There's just shit no one teaches you, isn't there. Imagine me trying to teach someone all of this. In less than 3 months.
So now you understand why I'm so tired. At any rate, I was looking forward to summer after this weekend's beautiful weather, but God turned on the air conditioning and now it's cold outside. Great. And someone tell me why it's farking freezing at work and then it's sweltery hot at home. I hate that. Perfect reading weather though, isn't it?
Okay, so off to read a book. Tracy Kidder, Mountains Beyond Mountains. or David Allen, Getting Things Done. or Everyday Rachel Ray.
While we're at it, kids, Read a Book. Enjoy.
