"I'm ready to get up and do my thing"

A little nervous

   Mon, February 6, 2006 - 11:21 PM
For the first time since the end of December, I have a temp job. This an Executive Assistant position for a investment/securities firm. It will start Wednesday, but I have to go in for a half a day tomorrow to fill out paperwork, background check information, get set up with IT, building access, etc. I am soooo happy, but a bit nervous as I am will all new jobs I start. Hopefully, this will get my mind off some other things (and of course, money in my pocket!).

So far most things are going well. Most of the worries and concerns of last week; illness, rent, etc I managed to take care of. I hate to struggle like this week after week, but I am proud of myself for getting though yet another month without a formal job. This job will make things much easier.

I wish the things in my more personal life wasn’t so dramatic. It almost seems like a bad opera buffa: too many characters, not much of a plot.

Such a big relief, I know, even though it's not ideal, it sure does make alot of things better. As to the opera chaos, just try to quiet yourself, run out your frustrations, keep yourself distracted. It will ease up soon enough. Tell yourself you've done all you can to fix things, and then let go. Doesn't mean other people's drama and the annoyances of everyday restrictions won't irritate you, but when there's nothing you can do about them, all you can do is hold on to whatever bits of joy you find for dear life. Even though you feel like you are alone in this struggle, it seems we all have to go through it at one time or another. So know that there are plenty of folk who know exactly how hard it is, and sympathize completely.
