i'm happily exhausted. feet aching, arms worked to the limit, legs and back toned. my hands throb from myriad cuts and dry skin cracking. even my fingers hurt.

but in a few hours, i feel like i've accomplished more than i have in months.

my favorite part of my old job was building displays. i like the challenge of creating something esthetically pleasing to the eye, while being easy to browse and refill. and for the next few weeks, i've been given carte blanche in my old (though slightly relocated) departement, to fix up the displays/problem areas. and there are many. but just seeing the improvements i've managed in one night (and half that was spent on paperwork!) makes me smile. i missed this part. not to mention the thorough workout you get, lifting stack after stack of heavy books, squatting and leaning and generally maneuvring yourself (and said books) into place. when i leave in a few weeks, i'll know that i've made a significant difference.

this is not to say i want my old job back. gods forbid. but i like this aspect of it, and while i lament the fact that things fell so far so quickly, i can't help but rejoice since it gives me the opportunity to play with, not just books, but MY books.

and since a bit of extra work at home is cutting my friday shift in half, this week is shaping up pretty nicely indeed.

I could so tell which pallet you built before I even read the note :)

hehe.


gah. Calendars was my hell today. I was thoroughly confused as to where I was supposed to built that Lemony Snicket skid but I worked it out somehow.

good to know my work is still recognizable. =)

as for the LS thing, E. said to leave it for you - i'm just obeying orders. my sympathies.

if it makes you feel any better, i was saying how tidy and neat the calendars looked today.
