GAAAH! And Boooo.
02.27.07 (9:24 pm)   [edit]

Ugh! I clicked on a link and lost most of my post! What was I thinking? I also lost a couple of other things. While I was peeling a (cooked) yam over the garbage, I said to Mr. Nick, "if I drop this in the garbage, I will cry!" Sure enough, the yam broke in half and fell into the garbage (but I didn't cry. BWAHHAAA). And then tonight, I had a bunch of bottles on the counter. I thought to myself, "I hope none of these fall in the toilet." Sure enough, my lotion went flying in. It was almost all out I guess. *sigh*

So I talked to the recruiter. He was lame. He was hungry. He kept trying to "offer me an alternate point of view" about doing contract work. That's just putting it lightly. He was actually VERY pushy. It almost worked until I thought about it. I am needing him to help me look for a *permanent* position. I have one already. Why would I put myself out there as a contractor? He cannot guarantee me full-time work, and I don't have the tools to be a contractor right now. He said he needed to contact 3 of my references first, but before we even ended our 20 minute phone conversation, he was already trying to sell me on a 2-3 month contract that was to start asap. I am meeting with him on Monday anyway.

Right now, my biggest stress is not being able to work out. I either get in 5 workouts a week or ZERO. This week and it's already starting next week -- I have all this stuff going on RIGHT after work, and it requires me leaving early, too.

Tomorrow I have a spa appointment. I had wanted it around 6, but 4:15 was the latest they had.

Thursday it's my strata's AGM. Even though lots of people skip these meetings, I'd like to keep abreast on what's going on in my building.

Friday I am leaving town.

Next Monday I am meeting the recruiter.

Next Tuesday I was supposed to meet an ex-colleague for dinner but now it looks like a possible job interview.

I am supposed to get together with the bride at some point too.

STRESS! It's been so difficult just to clean the home. 

I just want my workouts. Without them, it's hard for me to sleep. I feel too awake and energized. Too bad our bodies do not work on a 24-hour clock. And I have yet to adjust my meals for days I don't work out. I think I end up eating too much. I definitely don't feel as hungry.

i dont think you should quit a permanent job for a contractual one, and that too for 3 months only and on square 1 again. You are the best judge :)
due to irregularities in my workout schedules, i started to go out running and at whatever time i could. I found my self running at 12 (mid night) on occasions...... :)

I would be crazy to quit my permanent job for a 2 month contract! As if!
I try to avoid working out at night because I end up feeling too energised to sleep!

Working out is a great way to deal with stress. I haven't been able to even do yoga since my surgery and it's driving me absolutely crazy. I know exactly what you mean.

I hear meditation is good for de-stressing, too, but meditation sounds difficult!!
