Exhaustion
My brain is fried beyond belief. That’s why there hasn’t been any poems in a while.
Tis the season to get really freaking busy. Work is picking up due to the holiday season and it’s interesting to see how my role changes with the season. While in sales, nothing really changed about the holidays other than the fact that it got really busy. Well, in merchandising, our entire focus shifts quite a bit. During the non-holiday season, we focus on setting up new displays and the like. This time of year, however, our main focus is pouring product out of the warehouse and onto the sales floor all while making sure the place looks good. It’s really strenuous because as soon as you get the job done, it’s time to do it all over again.
With work killing me, I’ve had very little energy for any kind of creativity. The little energy I do have gets stored up and put into the NeowinCAST shows. Our listenership is going up and it’s always fun to record the show. What isn’t fun is listening to the show and hearing how often I stutter or lose my focus. I just have the shortest attention span imaginable and it really pisses me off sometimes.
Other than that, things are going well. I got fed up with waiting for AT&T to release Windows Mobile 6 for my phone, so I downloaded a leaked version and installed it last night. It’s much nicer looking, though there are some usability regressions that are a bit puzzling, to say the least.
