Dramarama at work lately has left me desperately searching to find a new job. Little by little, they are robbing me of my independence, as they have once again banned me from an entire area of our department. If management had it their way, I’d be shackled to my desk and left alone with no human contact for the entire 8-hour workday. Or, perhaps, they would just turn me into a robot. That’s basically what they’re trying to do, anyway.

I need to find a job that does not involve me sitting in front of a computer every day, as I am not only developing carpal tunnel, but horrendous migraines, as well. My eyeballs are burning. For serious.

Time to start studying for the GRE again. May will be here sooner than I’d like it to, and I need to have this done and out of the way, so I can concentrate on re-learning Russian and filling out applications and the like. I’m excited about the prospect of being back in academia… but not so much about the reality of being even further in debt. Hopefully, I’ll be able to pay off the credit cards before I start school. But I guess that really depends on how long I can take working this shitty job. Vicious cycle, it is. *grumblegrumble*

I seriously need a vacation. Like, a really long one. A couple weeks, or so. Somewhere away from here. Like… I dunno… Moscow, maybe.

So EMO today, aren’t I? Must be the weather. Or my aching head. I can’t decide.
