Guys, guys!

I LOVE MY NEW JOB!

The schedule is all weird for me, because MORNINGS. UGH. But other than that, it's pretty much perfect.

I have TWO flat screen monitors to myself. TWO.

I update website databases and court dockets and mug shots and marriages and fatalities and search around for events happening in Central Arkansas and I get to listen to the police scanner all day and all the reporters talk to their editors about the stories they're writing and I AM THERE.

I LOVE MY JOB.

Even if it is a little boring sometimes.

It was totally worth the pay cut. It's so low stress that sometimes I wonder if I'm doing it right.

I work 8am-5pm, Monday through Friday, but I generally just skip my lunch hour, so I can work from 8am-4pm. It's so flexible! I could come in at 9am and work until 5pm, or I could come in at 8am and split my hour lunch into two half hour breaks, or I could even come in at 7am and work until 3pm (which I will never, ever do, because MORNINGS. UGH.) It takes me about half an hour to walk there, so I even get daily exercise automatically worked into my routine!

I am also using a Mac for the first time. It was surprisingly easy to get used to.

AND! I've only been on the phone ONCE for work this entire week! I got to call the Faulkner County Tax Assessor's office and ask if there was a way the Log Cabin could get their hands on real estate figures. I got to say I was with the Log Cabin Democrat! I have a phone next to me that's specifically for people to call me back personally!

I can have my phone out ALL DAY without anyone even caring. I can listen to music in the mornings and afternoons! (I generally don't do it during the day when everyone is around and busy because they might ask me to do something and I'd rather hear them. But from 8-9, and from 3-4, I'm golden.)

In other news, [personal profile] dungeonmarm and I saw This Means War on Tuesday, and it makes me want ALL THE OT3 fic, and then—despite our common sense—we saw the encore performance of Love Never Dies, and it was SO BAD. I knew it was going to be terrible, but OMG. On the other hand, it was an absolutely lovely production, held back by the mediocrity of, you know, the book, the music, the EVERYTHING ELSE ABOUT THAT MUSICAL.

So that was my week. I hope everyone else's went just as great! ♥
