Most people know about me and my six month struggle to fin a job. Okay, if I’m really honest I didn’t really start looking until around Novemember and even then it was kind of half ass. But at any rate, there was a struggle to find gainful employment so that I wasn’t freeloading off my parents. Now that I’ve found this wonderful job the only thing I can say is that I wish I was unemployed again.
Don’t get me wrong. I love my job. I love my co-workers. I work in an amazing building surrounded by really awesome places to eat (Burger King, McDonald’s, Applebees, its wonderful!) and I get to see really interesting cases. But still I just wish that I had some time off. Now that things are finally starting to move at work by the time I get home I’m exhausted. I barely have time to feed my cat much less work on any of the million story ideas I have floating around in my head. I have my series on TS2 site that I haven’t really even had much time to type up. Its a pain! Yes, I’m whining. Deal with it.
I know that with time I’ll learn how to balance work with play but for right now I’m stuck. I have nothing that even resembles a social life and I’m supposedly in the prime of my life. Well, I guess its true. You get what you wish for and I wished that I had a job. Now I have one. Now I just have to learn how to manage work and having a life. Not that I had much of one before I started working anyway….

Contrary to popular belief, you’re not quite at the prime of your life. 99% of folks would agree with me I imagine. It’s going to take some time getting acclimated to the work routine, but you’ll get there I promise.
After a few weeks, you’ll realize you have more after-work energy and you’ll feel like doing a bit more each evening. You’ll figure out optimum times for doing the crap like laundry and all where you still have time to enjoy other things too.
Hang in there- you’ll make it! I have faith in you.

Late, but still good:

I’m sure you’ll be back in the swing of things soon enough.
