an angel kissin' on a sinner

Oof. I had another test at work this morning. Its startling how much work resembles school, and will apparently continue to for another couple months. I mean sure, I do some things that feel more like having a grown-up job. I work with a mentor on actual accounts. If I weren't given some opportunity to utilize the knowledge I'm acquiring the point of the exercise would almost certainly be moot. But still, at least 50% of a given day is given over to reading and studying and testing and going to classes. Just like school. Anyway, just like school, the fact that I took a 2-hour hundred question test this morning means that my brain is utterly fried this afternoon. So it goes.

I've had a couple of idea for essay-posts kicking around in my head for the past few weeks, but nothing is coalescing at the moment. I just feel scattered and distracted, although that could be another post-exam symptom. Its not wholly unpleasant. I'm sort of jittery, suffering from an excess of energy, but that's a feeling I enjoy. Who knows if it will carry over after I actually get out of work. I have been feeling surprisingly "up" lately; the past couple of days I've been bouncing off the walls, in total defiance of the fact that I've eaten like crap and am not getting enough sleep. Does this post feel as though it has taken a turn for the generic? This is my life, what else is new.

Congratulations are due to sleetfall, for one thing. The congratulations are for things that will not be disclosed at this time, but he knows what I'm talking about, and maybe you do, too. Well I guess this is growing up.
