slow day

I hate slow days at work.

(I just heard the rest of America say "Pffffft! I wish I had some slow days at work!")

It seems like a dumb thing to complain about - after all, I'm still getting paid. That's right; I'm getting paid to answer the phone on the off-chance it should ring, design myself some business cards, and write inane blog posts. Here's the catch: I have to look busy.

I mean, really. All I want to do is take a nap, but when you work in a little glass box, people notice if you're not awake and in an upright position. People also notice if you work on your braided rug - personally, I think crafting is a far more profitable use of my time than goofing off on the computer, but then people would walk by and think "what am I paying HER for?"

Man, am I in a whiny mood today. Must fix.

6. I have an amazing fiancé.
