working hard (or hardly working)

So this is what it feels like to work again. You know, it's almost embarrassing, but I was exhausted after today! I had to take a siesta. Yes, the first day of my three-day work week, and I was wiped out. Good thing I've got those four-day weekends to recuperate.

I even made some money today. 30€ and a chocolate euro coin. Successful day, I think.

But I can't help but wonder. What am I going to do when my 12 hour work weeks turn back into 40 hour work weeks? Especially when they won't allot time for the ever essential siesta. What have I gotten myself into?

...Not sure, but I'm enjoying it while it lasts!

HAHA 30 euro and a chocolate euro coin? I love it.
Meh. I work 35 hours now and it's okay. Sometimes I'm like "dang, I wish I could do nothing." but with 2 snow days last week and MLK day this week, those days are becoming few and far between. There's a rhythm in going to work and it's okay when you like your job. Which is a matter of perspective I'm pretty sure...
