"Have you ever had someone say 'You have a case of the Mondays'?"

Ahh Monday. The most hated day of the week. But thankfully, I woke up with a slightly less awful perspective than I had last week, and isn't that what life is all about? Learning to be less miserable than you were the week before? Wow that sounds depressing! Actually, I was in a huge funk last week, and I finally crawled out the other end and woke up with a brand new "half-full" glass of piss and vinegar.

On the subject of threats...could not agree more with Wendy, our generation (other than being technological wizards) are complete bastards (ourselves included). I didn't go through 7 years of higher education, and I still think I'm worth 6 figures. And from what I can tell from interviewing people, it is only getting worse. I mean that is, if they even look up at you from their IPad during an interview, it will most likely only be to tell you that the tasks that you require are far, far beneath their scope of interest. No thanks, I'll just keep tweeting my way onto the Millionaire Matchmaker.

Another threat that I realized over the weekend is my work. It is threatening to take over my life. I mean that in the most sincere way possible. The line between "work" hours and "home" hours no longer exists, I'm losing sleep, and I find that I have literally not one interesting thing to speak of that is non work-related. People talk a lot about balance, and many people preach that with savvy time management, a glossy agenda (Wendy), and superb organization...you too can HAVE IT ALL! (sparkle, sparkle). Well, I guess that means I am screwed, because everyone saw the picture of my closet, and clearly since I am writing this at 10:08PM and plan to return to work emails after, I have not found the elusive "balance." But that's what the word "Project" in front of "Peter Pan" suggests, a work in progress, so that's what I am working on this week. Step 1, close laptop and watch Pam Anderson and Kate Gosselin humiliate themselves on Dancing With The Stars.
