I know this isn’t normal and probably not very smart to blog about right now but I’m going to go with it anyway. Maybe someone will pity me and offer me a position in their company with all the perks, no “business casual dress code”, and high salary! Maybe I’m allowed to dream!
I have had jobs where I was so busy I could barely think and I’d shake for a good hour after work just trying to let the day fall off of my skin and out of my head. More recently though, I have had the luck of holding positions that don’t allow for such overwhelming stress that work-a-holics crave! I’m not a work-a-holic by any means. I just want to have something to do. When left to my own devices at work I shop! Ebay.com, saks.com, and any other .com that allows me to put in my credit card number and get a shipment within 10-14 business days. (I’m also a big fan of Makeup-alley- ladies this site is amazing!)
Among other things going on in my life, I recently landed my “dream” job position at a movie production company. I get to use my paralegal degree, dress how I want, be around cool people, and the daily commute is still less than 3 miles! You would think that I could just sit back and be happy. Well, I’m not. I’m still on a trial basis while the company (dear as they are) tries to figure out whether they even need a paralegal or not. I want to work here – but I also want to WORK here! I’m begging someone out there to please give me more work to do. Please please please!!!!!
Don’t get me wrong, I like to have downtime. But honestly if you figure in my previous job plus this last month at this new job I have had downtime for about a year…maybe more. Downtime is great, when it is preceded and followed up by something else to think about and something else to do. My mind is too idle and I think I’m getting dumb, or losing my common sense or something to that effect.
I know that it is NEVER smart to blog about jobs and positions and all that. As soon as I get done writing this I’m on my way to my boss’ office to ask for more to do. Please take pity on me. Understand that I had to get this out! I LONG for more to think about from 9-6.

Ask me how:
These are amazing Wind N' Go flashlights. My parents gave them to family for Christmas gifts a few years ago. I keep one in my car and a couple in my home. I had to use them recently because of a power outage and I cannot tell you how nice it was to turn on the flashlight and have it ready to go. There was no fumbling through a drawer to find batteries that worked. So easy, so inexpensive. Why not be prepared?

Sagittarius:
"Wisdom is knowing I am nothing," said Indian philosopher Nisargadatta Maharaj. "Love is knowing I am everything. And between the two my life moves."
"Everything is gestation and then bringing forth," wrote poet Rainer Maria Rilke in his book Letters to a young Poet. "To let each impression and each germ of feeling come to completion wholly in itself, in the dark, in the inexpressible, the unconscious, beyond the reach of one’s own intelligence, and await with deep humility and patience the birth-hour of a new clarity: that alone is living the artist’s life." I think it's also the approach you should take in the coming weeks, Sagittarius, even if you're not an artist. As smart as you are, there's an even greater intelligence working discreetly within you that is more slyly brilliant and lushly visionary than your conscious mind. You owe it to your future to let it do its work.

Hey Quel, To me NOTHING is wrong with blogging about work! I do feel for you. Nothign is wrong with wanting it all. Of course you smart enought o be grateful that you aren't in some slave labor camp making gugs for 3 cents a day until your habds bleed. But dont feel guilt for wanting to use your mind and have s purpose. Boredom is maddening!
P.S. Sorry I continue to be a bad typer!
