Distracted

Dear Boss Lady:

I must confess something. When I am at work, I work. I do. I get my job done and do so in a timely manner.

However, a few things are getting in the way of my working at maximum capacity at present. Please allow me to elaborate.

1. My Bloglines Account. I currently subscribe to over 80 blogs. It has been a routine to read blog entries for my first half hour at work ever since I worked at IGSHPA. (Yes, I worked with heat pumps. Please pull your jaw up off the floor.) And everyone knows I don't like change, so I can't stop now. It's part of my daily routine.

2. MySpace. I just recently latched on to this obsession. And I need therapy now because of it. I spent way too much time the other day looking at people I went to high school with that I haven't seen or talked to in 5 years. And - of course - I had to add them as my friend.

3. Facebook. Where do you think the MySpace obsession stemmed from? Duh.

4. This Damn Blog. Blogging is my release. I'm happy and healthier for it. And if a blog-worthy thought happens to come to me at work, then who am I to tell it no?

5. My E-mail. I think I checked it about 13 times already today. In fact, somedays I keep it minimized on my computer screen. It's just easier.

So, dearest Boss Lady, my apologies if you need me to complete an urgent project today. I'm waaaaay too busy reading blogs and racking up my online friend lists.

Come back tomorrow.

Sincerely,
Sandra Dee
