So many Fridays

Every time I turn my attention away from my day job, I realize that another week is receding into the rear view mirror, and I’m still on page 49 of my book.

Today was another busy day. I rewrote one of last year’s assignments to make it simpler. I have a tendency to believe that everyone’s as enthusiastic as I am and I end up overloading the assignments with too much good stuff. Hey, I’m a cockeyed optimist who believes that if I like it, someone else will like it.

So, to work with those unlucky souls who are just going along for the ride, I have to rework the project so that it’s more appealing to other people. Simplifying things isn’t always a bad thing. As I’m rewriting the project, I see that it will be even better than last year’s version.

To reward myself for working so hard on other people’s projects, I’m going to indulge my urge to watch some British cooking shows tonight. I’m proud to say that cooking shows are one of my many guilty pleasures.
