A Mysterious Lack of Posts
March 26th, 2008 | by Tom |Sorry Im late, traffic was murder.
I try to do most of my posting while Im at work. It gives me something to think about so i dont have to think too hard about my job. You see I hate my job. Think what you want about that statement and what it means in relation to what kind of person I am, but there is nothing anyone can say or do that can make me retract my statement or feel differently about my exceedingly horrible job. Its mere existence makes me question what has occurred in society to make my job possible. Im not talking about my company as a whole but the specific role i play within in the company.
The point im trying to make is that i hate my job so much that i spent Monday and Tuesday as utterly depressed as it is possible to and logged several drafts of attempted posts that i was just unable to focus on enough to finish due to this not all that unexpected instance of occupational depression (Nicolette, is that a thing? Occupational Depression?).
Im posting now because i took a half day to put all of my efforts into looking for a new job. I havent found anything yet, seeking employment is slow going, however i have been at it for approximately 4 hours and i havent quit yet which is substantially longer than my normal job searches last. I have what is known as a “lack of motivation” when it comes to doing things like finding a new job, getting in shape, writing songs etc, etc. Mainly because, and we’ll go in order, even through i hate my job I do have a job, while i am slightly over weight im not obese and ive never been a gym guy, if our bodies host genes for wanting to go to the gym my parents must have saved all of theirs for when they had my brother, and I wrote the Build-up, some bands that are making millions of dollars right at this moment, touring the world and tricking idiots into buying their records, have never written a song as good as The Build-up.
Or so Ive been told.
Anyway, i’ll try to be better about posting and i will also try to not give up on things so easily. Those are my two goals for the rest of the week. Post more and to not quit. i should be able to accomplish both of them with relative ease. You’ll know if i did by how sunny and warm it is.
Oh, in case you didnt know my moods control the weather.
Sorry for all the wind.
