Frustration

I’m trying to balance my checkbook, pay bills, etc. in a room that’s so cluttered I can’t think straight. I can’t get over how the environment I’m in can affect my emotions. Just sitting here is making me nervous and shaky. Normally I’m not so fragile when it comes to this. And it stresses me out more that I’m really not getting anything done except venting, so that makes it worse. Aaaaaaaah!

Maybe I need to eat. Maybe I need a cure for PMS. Whatever.

I’ve always wanted to open my resume up like this:…

I’ve always wanted to open my resume up like this:

Objective:
To find a place where idealism mixes with cynicism to produce a hopeful but lighthearted environment. A place that takes its work seriously enough to make sure it is done well, but acknowledges the fact that its work is not essential to the continuation of human civilization. Insert my ability to work hard and maintain a smile in stressful situations. We may just have a fit.

Objective: To, in a place where idealism and cynicism beneficially coexist, serve people creatively, pleasantly, and to the best of my ability.

Chiropractic fun

Last week I had my first visit with my chiropractor at the Chiropractic Company. She took xrays and some sort of digital scan of my back. I’m not in good shape. The first two vertebrae in my neck are fused together – something that’s probably been that way since I was born. My neck curves in the direction opposite the way it’s supposed to go. And many of my vertebrae are twisted. That pretty much covers it, I think. I had two adjustments this week, and they have made my back relax more than it’s been in a long time. I didn’t know it would feel so good.

I am going to go workout as soon as I eat breakfast. Hopefully that can only help things, right? I get to see the chiropractor again this afternoon – yay!
