Its like I've grown up...

... and had to get a real job.
Not that my last job, which involved staff meetings discussing the ways that gay men meet, wasn't for reals. I did real work, I had a real schedule (that I was largely expected to really keep) and I may have even really helped someone. However, there were an awful lot of days spent at online gaming, writing emails, blogging, etc.. In my new job. I have no time for any of these things. And yet, I still make time for all of them. Granted, a new blog template is not even on the horizon. Then again, I do believe that the current template suits me fine. A picture of a mountain, somewhere in my mind where I can go when the real world gets overwhelming.
I am sure that I will find time to do this blog thing, check my email, and maybe even messenger from my office. But the question remains, do I want to? There are a lot of ethical issues with that. I guess this is a mass statement to let you all know that I may be less available on a moment's notice. I have enough people asking me to drop what I am doing in the middle of their crisis as it is. :) But I am totally open for lunch invites. Anyone who wants to get me out of the office around noon or 1:00 is my best friend for at least an hour.
Did you know I worked in my old job for 4 years? And all I had to show for it in the end was a large box of crap that I probably should have thrown away. I miss the co-workers whom I came to know quite well after 4 years in the same cubicle. I do not miss the cubicle, I do not miss entering abstracts into a database, and I do not miss being unable to park when I had an important meeting. Ok.. maybe I miss the cubicle a little. We don't even have room for a cubicle. :)
Ok.. enough with being boring. Just thought I'd let you all know.. I LOVE MY NEW JOB!
