If I can say anything about my life lately, it's that I always to feel sleep deprived during the week. For the past two days, I've taken a nap shortly after I got home and have awakened too late to get much of anything done. Luckily, I had enough broken sleep to have enough energy to get through the day without feeling that I need a nap while at work.

Strangely enough, I will miss having a place to go to when I eventually leave my job. The people are a nice bunch, even though they don't have much time to be social. The place is LGBT friendly, and I have never noticed anyone saying negative about me or others in the LGBT community that is related to our gender issues. Yet, I will enjoy having time back in my life to do things. And, even more importantly, I will be able to enjoy reading books again.
I've noticed changes affecting my health that I want to discuss with my doctor next week. These changes are likely related to two things: my age, and the toll that an 8 hour/day grunt job does to my body. Last year at this time, I'd have no problem going on a hike with DS. Today, I think I'd feel winded early on. This bothers me a bit. I'd like to break the habit of drinking 4+ cups of coffee (or its equivalent) on a daily basis. Unfortunately, I can't do this while I need caffeine's stimulant effect to make it through the work day.
Sooner or later, something's got to give. And I'm hoping that I will feel comfortable bailing out of my job before that time comes....
