Restless

It’s early in the morning, and I’m struggling to get back to sleep. I’m kind of hungry right now, so maybe eating something downstairs would be a quick solution, but I’m doubtful about it. Actually, part of me doesn’t want to go back to sleep for fear that I might not get back up on time.

Yesterday was my first day of work after a four month absence. I’m returning to my old position as a technical writer. Once again, I felt like my boss just threw me into the thick of things. It reminds me of a father trying to teach his kid to swim by throwing him in the water. My inbox was already flooded with requests and things.

Despite all this, I don’t feel overwhelmed. I can tackle this beast head on and still come out on top. At least, that’s what my current level of confidence is telling me. Later on in the term I may very well be singing a different tune.
