Breaking News: I've Still Got It

Yes, you heard me right, I have still got it.  The "it" I am referring to is the ability to, after 169 days (give or take a few) of having no employment, successfully make it through a real work day.  To you, this may seem like no big deal, but I feel like I just won a marathon.  I was definitely napping like I had just ran a freaking marathon when I finally got home.  Even though I only worked from 8 am until about 1 pm, I feel good about what I accomplished today:

1. Successfully woke up at 6:15 am (!) and stayed awake.  Key words being, stayed awake.
2. I didn't nod off at all while working.  This is a bigger deal than it sounds.
3. Didn't fall asleep on the drive home.  Pretty important stuff.

I will be working from 8 am (!) until 5 pm from here until Friday.  So needless to say I won't be sitting in front of my computer much.  See you on the other side of Thursday folks.
