86 minutes 'til quitting time

Is boredom a communicable disease? It appears to be contagious and hard to cure.

This week marks my first experience with fall break. Granted, only the faculty and students enjoy the two-day hiatius (turned into two and-a-half days in reality), but still, it's been 48 hours of easy parking and no phone calls. And unbelievable boredom.

Wednesday afternoon stretched on for what seemed like days. A person can only surf the web for so long. But finally it was time to go home. So I hit the gym for my third day of running. And I paid for it.

I woke up yesterday with a horrible headache and a sore back, so I took some meds and went back to sleep. I knew I wasn't going to miss anything at the office.

And now I'm trying to endure this dullsville day. But thankfully we get to go home at 2 p.m.

I remember my days in Fort Smith of 16 hours worth of work and not enough time to do it in. There's gotta be a happy medium job somewhere.
