amalthia: Children of Dune Leto Ghanima sitting together (Children of Dune Leto Ghanima)
I'm using the cut tag because I have a month's worth of recs and I didn't want to kill anyone's bandwidth. :) I'm also about a month behind on updating the Ebook Library. But I think I needed the break. School for the semester is almost over but I'm going to take 2 classes in a 5 week period for Summer I so I'm not sure how that'll go in terms of time required? I suspect updates may be few and far between until summer is over.

Recs behind the cut! )

I can tell it's the first week after my period. It's like clockwork. I'm irritable, can't concentrate on anything, none of my favorite things keep my interest long.

So tonight instead of moping about the internet I'm going to watch Star Trek (the new movie) or Number3...I hear season 6 has been good so far.

In other news, I finally found a librarian that manages more than one person, that will allow me to job shadow her for 3 hours tomorrow morning, for my midterm paper due this Saturday. I was beginning to worry I wouldn't find anyone in time and I started looking last week! I think maybe I'm dreading my paper this upcoming Saturday but not sure why 10-15 pages really isn't that long when double spaced.

I'm also debating on re-watching Voyager (still need to find torrent) but I'd re-read the Just a Guy Series this week (like in two days because I could not put this story down!) Now I'm kind of interested in seeing Voyager and Highlander again. I'd forgotten just how much I enjoyed the two series. But now that I've finished reading this epic I'm not sure what to read next. (I hate being between stories)

On the work front, it's hard to stay motivated. I'm now learning how to read line edits. The technical writer marks in red ink on projects/reports/tech memos and my boss is the one that normally takes those and makes the changes in Word, however she's leaving for vacation at the end of the month so she's teaching me how to do this and so far I'm sucking at it. I can't read the handwriting 99% of the time and not all the marks make sense. But I figured if I ever get good at this it's one more thing I can add to my resume. My list of things I can do is increasing daily. (I think that's a good thing)

Ultimately, I'm worried that I'll never be truly happy or find a job I enjoy. I can't tell anymore if my lack of happiness makes it harder to enjoy work or if it's my workplace that makes me unhappy.

I don't think ice cream can fix whatever it is that's wrong with me. But I'm going to try.
