I'm about to leave work (yes, I'm currently very productive at work), to go "work from home." Now this is a fuzzy phrase. It means "I'm not getting anything done here, so I may as well go home and fake it there." The hilarious concept that I might actually get MORE work done at home is.... well- um- hilarious.
Anyway. I truly believe it this time though, the flourescent lights, harsh desk, flow of irrelevant emails and guilt-trips every time I find one I accidentally ignored- are way too much for this easily distracted person. I don't have ADD- I think it's more the ability to completely forget what one was doing only two seconds before. I have.... dementia? Sometimes I think I do. More on that later.
As I'm here at work, I'm blogging, counting how many hours I've worked, working out my New Year's resolution, working out creative ways to trick the church into being more energy efficient, and making all social plans for 2008. So far- all those things are going well. What I need to be doing is calling people, copying random things, calling people, and calling people. That's about it. Oh and organizing my files. So I can call more people (with better information). I really love my job: Coordinator of Congregational Care. It is perfect for me- but sometimes I feel like a kid with every finger stuck in a different piece of candy.... which to eat first? By the time I'm on the 10th candy, I forget candy #1 needs more attention, then I discover I have candy in my pockets, too!
weird analogy.
So- I'm going home. To get more done.
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
I love it... I too believe that a change of pace has a good chance of improving my work ethic, even if I am kidding myself. So does oyur social calendar include visiting us this year? love you muches!
