ick. more headaches.


I was up at four in the morning with a migraine. Just what I need. Can you take more pain killers if you've thrown up the ones you've just taken? I'll have to ask my dad.

It didn't last too long, though, and, surprisingly, I was fine in the morning. That was a blessing and a curse. I could use a day off.

I'm kind of nervous at work right now. We did our year-end (fiscal years make no sense to me) employee self-evaluation thing last week. Frustrated with staring at a blank page, I decided to be honest. That's not entire a bad thing. It basically came down to "I'm in a rut," which is entirely true. I'm worried, though, that now that I've said something my boss will be all over himself to try to fix things. I don't like to put people out. I got a plain old "satisfactory" from my quarter-end bonus review. That's down a bit from last quarter. It's not like he doesn't know I've pretty much been punching the clock lately. I'm pinning most of the blame on this crappy winter that never ends. I'd be happy with a little fresh air. Fewer headaches that way.

I'd like to be doing spectacular things so that I'm loved and respected by all. And so I can come away with that glowing "I made that!" feeling. Right now, I'm just doing maintenance work—dusting up cobwebs, but only when somebody's complained about them. Maybe it'd be good to talk it out with the boss. On the other hand, I don't know that I have the energy to do fantastic things right now.

I've had a few clever ideas lately. We shall see if I get the time or energy to pull them off...
