I hate that I am always looking at my calendar, waiting for some circled date weeks or months in the future. (Actually, I don't circle days in my calendar. If I even use a calendar, I highlight special things or write them in difference colors. But I'm trying to be dramatic here, and it's not particularly dramatic to say that I'm always looking for the thing that's written in red ink, is it?) Where was I?

I want to look forward to every day. I don't really care what I'm doing as long as I can look forward to the day. Not to mention, no event can stand up to the expectation built up over weeks or months of waiting and watching that circled day (see above) get closer.

This is my most disgruntled complaint. Unfortunately, it's pretty much a self-fulfilling prophesy.

My boss thought I was a vegetable-eating vegetarian. She was slightly concerned that I would be upset that she had "stereotyped" me. On the contrary, I find it complimentary.
