You know, I’m pretty surprised at how easy it is to wake up. I think the big difference is that I now have a purpose! I have a reason to get up out of bed in the morning, know what I mean? Of course, this has only been the second day of work. I may not be so fresh one week from now.
Work has been good so far. I’ve been trying to ramp up to speed somewhat quickly. I mean, I don’t want to be stuck reading documentation for several days. Yesterday, my manager gave me a few job tickets that were supposed to be completed whenever I was ready. However, when I saw them I was just so excited that I wanted to knock down as many of them as I could. Maybe I’m being a bit too eager. As it is, I’m still in the process of learning where all the proper files are on the various servers. However, I find that it’s so much easier to learn things when I’m actually doing them for real. Even though the actual tasks are kind of simple, they’re exciting nonetheless because it’s all new to me.
I’m feeling good, though I still haven’t gotten into the mindset that this is a permanent job. It’ll take a while for me to get to that point. For now, I’m still waiting for the “honeymoon” effect to wear off.

I shouldn’t though. You’ve been "out of work" long enough to enjoy having to go.
Me, on the other hand, am enjoying my respite of so called "unemployment."
Heh. I am actually working. I did some work on a project yesterday to earn cash. And I’m getting up in the morning to take Al-chan to school. That counts, right? Hee hee.

To tell the truth, I think the honeymoon period is wearing off. Or..at least..the effect is now at a lower level.
I guess, with a bit more time, I’ll become just as surly as you. Huzzah! lol
