Mamamontezz's Mental Rumpus Room

And my week?

I've looked at my email a hundred times today,
like a child watching for Santa,
waiting for my fears to be put to rest,
my sadness banished,
all betrayal disproved, and
all fears allayed.

But it remains empty.

My heart hangs suspended,
cold and heavy,
steel on a daisy chain,
it spins and swings uncomfortably.
Still I keep checking,
a hopeless optimist,
for one brave response to many small pleas.

No, it hasn't been the best week so far. How could you tell?

Work has been tedious and the tension there is palpable. It's the end of the fiscal year, and reviews are due. Core competencies are also due, and it's a mad scramble for some to get them done.

Sunday's a holiday, but quite a few of the non-patient areas will parlay that into three-day weekends. Hopefully things will calm down after that.
