Drunk(ish), bored, lonely, frustrated and horny. Not a combination to go to sleep on.
I do have some options for changing my circumstances, but it's all a fucken waiting game. One would think I'd be used to it by now.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

It seems to be the same in all jobs.
The harder you work and the more you succeed, the more is expected of you and your responsibilities grow and grow.

One project manager has four projects that need construction documents completed (by me, this isn't even including the projects she's got other people working on).
Another needs me to set up design documents to send to contractors (and, BTW, they need to be done NOW!!!) and in order to do that I have to draw 30,000 square feet of ceiling plans at the same time as the project manager is making plan changes that change my ceiling layouts.
I got a request two weeks ago from a facilities manager for a modified set of documents for his entire hospital campus and I haven't even been able to start them. In fact, I keep forgetting about them.
I busted my ass yesterday to put together a meeting agenda for a staff meeting no one had time for - meaning I could have been two hours ahead on one of these other projects...
I've been on three as-builting trips in the last seven days.
It's looking more and more like I'm going to have to either stay a full day on Friday in order to complete stuff (meaning about 5 hours of overtime, not including what I've already done this week) or come in on the weekend - or *shudder* both.
Apparently I've become the finishes guru of the office - I'm the one in charge of selecting paints, carpets, and laminates, and I'm also, apparently, the only one who knows where the samples are...
I'm so mentally exhausted right now. I'd go home and cry if it didn't take so much effort.
Awwww!

If you absolutely have to get something done right away, give it to a busy person to do.

Wake up with a sticky solution.

Wondering how both of my landline phones got lost. Charging my Jitterbug so I can dial home and trace the sounds. Grrrrr.
