My Day Job is Eating My Lifestyle

I'm getting eaten alive by my day job. Things are going reasonably well for what I've been asked to do, I find myself in a position where the hardest thing about being successful is the ability to have the endurance to methodically execute the same series of policies and procedures over and over again.

There is a fair amount of mental endurance involved, but I don't feel like my creativity is being overly taxed. It's time to move on, and I need to come to terms with my inevitable exit strategy.

I'm looking forward to taking some time away from the humdrummery tomorrow, and we'll see what new challenges and opportunities unfold.

Keeping Up the Practice

Relatively long, but productive work at my day job today. I missed taking any photos worth putting up, so for now I'm just keeping up the daily practice.  I did calculate that over the last ten years or so, I've spent a little over 200 days commuting to and from work.

200 days.

That metric lends a little perspective to the pilgrimage which I plan on taking a little less time than that commuting time I've put in over the last decade. From that point of view the walk doesn't sound quite as irresponsible as it might seem at first blush.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow and the chance at stumbling on some other unique and informative perspectives.
