what the hell's wrong with me?

We're 33% short of team members today (including the lead), it's Monday (ie, busy), and we're having application issues affecting a nationwide client. Me? I'm loving it. I've already arranged free lunch for the team with the office principal, helping get everything covered client/knowledge wise, and I'm zooming with energy and optimistic.

Weird.

The sausage and pepperoni is gone; all that's left is veggie :)

Ah... moments of action, when it actually feels like work matters... :)

Alas, it never seems to last...

Pffff, I know. Has it gone back to normal... or worse?

Today was the first day since I got here, I think, that I've been enthusiastic about what I doing at work. I don't expect that to last, of course, but it was still nice to feel.

More or less back to normal.

I can't help but wonder why work can't be something about which to be enthusiastic more often. I've yet to figure it out.

My own (cynical? pessimistic?) opinion about that is that I'll bored with anything that I do 40+ hours a week, week after week. At least, I don't believe excitement can last through that kind of day after day existence. So I'm generally satisfied with most days being OK, and enjoy the few that are really fun. :)
