Can Do More

Hello Everyone: A very quiet Monday for me. I got some grocery shopping and finished a post. Strangely, I felt bored. Work is beginning to define my days and without it I feel like I have to make up things to do. Actually, it's made up stuff because I can find what to do, it's just after I do what need to do, I'm at loss with free time. Anyway, I did apply to a couple of jobs today. One is a job with the federal government in the Office of the Architect of the Capitol and other is at a local museum. Both hold exciting possibilities but I don't feel any real sense of urgency because I have a job that I do like, really. The handful class and dull witted co-workers aren't real deal breakers for me. Every place has its thing that make you want to scream. I'm in it for myself not win any popularity contest. I still need to be civil to everyone but not nice. Nice is something completely different. I do have a work agenda: Not to be the career TA. I am confident that I can lead the class not play over educated child minder. It goes back to the realization I had before I started work, why am I doing a job, that for all intents and purposes, is beneath me other than the paycheck? Don't get me wrong, I like having greater definition to my day and having someone else to talk to. I just feel I can do more. After the break I'll pick up the discussion with the person I need to talk to.
