Just Another Sunday
*sigh*
(For the record, I suppose, that's a sigh of nonspecific discontentment, and fatigue.)
So, not so much weird on the weekend after all. And I find myself strangely tired for a Sunday evening when I haven't been doing more than usual over the weekend.
I'm blaming the fact that I'm increasingly dissatisfied with the routine of work. Is it a bad thing that I'm looking forward to being laid off in about two weeks?
On the one hand, my income will go down something like two thirds once I'm on unemployment. But... I don't know, no schedules? The freedom to just do whatever? Until and unless I start actively spending too much money (alarmingly easy to do with my weakness for fleeting amusements) I'm effectively unlimited in what I can do with my time.
OK, I'll amend. Until I either start spending too much money, or the weather turns particularly bad, I'm effectively unlimited in what i can do with my time.
There are a few things. Provided that Grandma gets down to Florida by then (long story), we'll be driving down to visit with her in December. There's predictably family obligations surrounding the whole holiday season, of course.
And I'd say there's FruCon, but as FruCon is one of the things I'll be happily able to do with my freedom of time spendage, it isn't really something to mention as an obligation in schedule.
Anyway, I'm really looking forward to being laid off. I'm looking forward to being able to set my own hours, back onto something like the schedule I prefer to lean to -- that is to say, back to my 8 hours of sleep not exactly having much overlap with most other peoples'. I'm looking forward to having the time to go to the places where I enjoy writing. I'm hoping to write more.
And, in spite of it probably counting as thinking too much, I'm looking forward to having quiet time to think, when I can get away from that quiet time.
I might have to explain that. I think too much at work. Combination of the nature of the work, and I guess the nature of me. The trouble is, as I am there working, there's no where that I can escape to. Little way to forcibly distract myself when I need to take time not to be thinking about something or another.
That's still not making sense. Maybe I should just say that I need time to be able to think about things, structured such that I'm less likely to over think them.
I'm still not explaining very well. So I'll just go back to saying I'm looking forward to being laid off in a couple of weeks.
