the triumph of the morning-nazis
my first week of work over, this is my first saturday as a wage slave. Ain't it sweeeet? why i remember when saturday was just another day of mindless pleasure.
Howz the job? Well, glad you asked. The JOB itself I cannot particularly write about. Top secret and all that. heheh. No I won't be outed soon by the bush administration. At least I hope not. Suffice it to say that i am gainfully, legally employed. I have found a use for my law diploma, other than covering the cracks in the tenement walls.
This is the FIRST time I've had a real job where you are supposed to be there from 9-5. Here are several things I have learned about 9-5.
1. Running after work is harder than running during the day.
2. One gains weight working 9-5, and one isn't sure how, because one eats less b/c one is not near the refrigerator all day.
3. The gym is more crowded at 6 pm than it is at 11am.
4. Blogging is harder working 9-5.
5. Kittens feel deprived, and pee on things when everyone is gone all day.
6. Everything is crowded, all the time, wherever you go, because everyone else works 9-5.
7. The main thing is, getting up this early every morning is very hard. 9-5 is really the TRIUMPH OF THE MORNING-NAZIS.
I was so depressed this week b/c running really doesn't feel good to me after work. I hope this changes! I mean i like running about noon, or even as early as 10 am. as long as I've been up a couple of hours. But sitting on my (fat) ass all day and then trying to run on a treadmill surrounded by every other (fat) assed 9-5er is singularly uninspiring. my body does not like it.
The times had an article a while back about the tyranny of the morning people. Apt, i think. We are never far from our puritan heritage in this country anyway. (That goes for our obsession with porn too!)
sigh. Here's my ideal day:
wake up 9am.
flop around reading emails & stretching for a while.
run about 10am.
eat about noon.
flop around for a while, stretching and reading emails.
go out for errands.
at about 3, get down to some kind of work.
work until about 8 or 9pm.
eat, watch tv.
maybe do a little more work
read.
zonk out at about 12 or 1.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
