Shopping all done

Of course, it's easy to be done when there's just a handful of people. Much less expensive too -- there's pluses to everything.

I realized today that a big part of what I do at work... drains me. I mean it sucks the life out of me. It's not that I don't like what I do... but that it's just... I'm not sure how to explain it. It's not hard. It's not overly intense. It's not... well, difficult. Not in the least.

It's just... un-invigorating. It's so very easy to spin that no two days are ever the same. That I never know what I'll be doing on any given day -- and that's all very true. But, at the same time, I am doing the same shite every day.

Today's fire looks blue, while yesterday's was green.. but it's still a fire and same damn hoops get jumped through to put it out.

Today's big project is really the same as the last one, only it's got a different bow on it.

I suppose that's all a very long winded way of saying while what I do could be interesting -- it's really not. Not to me. I don't feed off it.. I don't get energy from it. It sucks energy from me.

In other news, I bought the last item I needed to day.. and was actually giggling in the mall. My one niece, poor girl, her bday is right around xmass. Anyway, it's her bday gift I was missing. She claims to be a steelers fan, but I'm dubious of this. However, I'll run with it.. and found the most fabulous steelers related gift ever.

I'm guessing at the dimensions.. but it's got to be a foot long, 8 inches high... a good 6ish inches wide... with little rosie cheeks and a bit slot in the back -- that's right, it's giant (relatively speaking) ceramic piggy bank.

The weird uncle strikes again!
