I've been extraordinarily busy with work over the last year or so. They keep shoveling more stuff on our plate despite the fact that we've shown that it's more than we can handle. It's almost as if focusing exclusively on sales to the exclusion of everything else is a bad idea. Makes me wonder if the company is struggling to survive.

Anyway, I've been in a constant state of mental exhaustion and I'm sick of it. If the job market was even somewhat normal I would have quit by now. But my partner doesn't have a job, so I really need to hang on to the one I have because we're barely making ends meet.

Other than that, I'm doing okay. I've made a conscious effort to reduce the amount of time I'm online, and I'm reading books a lot more now.
