I Need a Project

I've been pretty unmotivated and bored lately. At work, we had layoffs a week ago, and some of the most interesting people are gone. More (including a couple of my real friends) are being transferred to other locations early next week. It's hard to feel good about buckling down and getting to work when all these people are leaving. In my personal life, Rob (my husband) has been in Germany for about a week and a half. Our housemate is on an odd sleep schedule so I don't see him much. And I just realized I can't even introduce the other important person in my life in a public journal entry, but I can say that person is pretty busy at the moment. So I'm adrift.

I think I need a project. Something positive, something challenging, something that isn't a waste of time when all is said and done. Maybe a way to help someone who needs help, or make the world just a little bit better in some way. Ending world hunger is probably too big to tackle; cleaning the house is too unimportant; I'll be trying to think of something in between.

Whee, my first journal entry, and I'm a whiner! :-)
