Die, Mustard, Die!
Oct. 9th, 2006 11:08 pmI had heard of the cravings, but today I learned that sometimes pregnant people also find themselves suddenly disgusted by certain foods. My sister says that for her, it's mustard.

Today, as expected, I was unable to work on my long half-fun, half-frustrating job task.
But I also couldn't work on my multi-day boring task because I had to work on a smaller sleep-inducing task before it piled up and then I had to work on a very long mental sweatshop sort of task delegated to me by someone away on a retreat. I am two-thirds done with that, and the sleep-inducing task is building up again already.
Eight years, three months, one week.
Really, I need to be out of this job before this phase in the workload again (two years from now), and ideally at least a year before that to give the new person some time to get adjusted before being accosted with this seasonal workload.
But it's one thing to say I need to be out of there and quite another to find a job I want. I don't want to settle for another mediocre job; I want to try for one I will like, and these have not been popping out of the woodwork.
