I do not want to be here today, not at all.

I know I only put in about 9 or 10 hours over the weekend, and it was a three-day weekend, so technically I didn’t even put in a half-day each day…  But simply having to get out of bed, make myself presentable, get my brain functioning, troubleshoot issues, call up the client, and basically just having to do work over the weekend really killed the “weekend” thing for me.

It does not feel like I had any time off.  It doesn’t feel like I had a weekend.  It feels like I’m going on my 8th workday…which really is pretty accurate.  And by the end of the week I’ll have worked 12 days straight.

I’m tired.  I don’t want to deal with clients.  I don’t want to run all over the place.  I don’t want to make phone calls, send out emails, contact tech support, troubleshoot issues…

I didn’t get to shut my brain off for two days like I normally do, and I’m really missing that today.

And, of course, there’s plenty of stuff that needs fixing today.  Mondays are always busy, and we were closed for an extra day last weekend, so there’s even more waiting for me today.
