It's the second time I've used this picture in a while, and it makes perfect sense. I felt like this model looked this morning when I woke up, and I could barely stay awake at work today. AARGH!

One of the problems with shadowing someone as she does her job is that without doing any activity other than observation things can bet boring enough to put one to sleep. And I was in danger of this happening today, as I only had 4 hours of sleep the night before. Thank god for caffeine!
I'm glad that I chose to report to work as Marian, as I feel much more comfortable in my female presentation. However, after a full day at work and being tired, I noticed that I was not projecting as feminine a voice as I'd like to project. This is something I'll have to work on again. I'm not used to being tired at work anymore, nor am I used to the routine of this new office. It will come with time, but it's not something I was really ready for when I started work.
When I got home, I chatted with a friend. I realized that I'd rather be in a position where I can socialize more with people. A receptionist position would have suited me nicely - but would it have paid what I get now? If I were to get an offer to do this kind of job, I might jump for it. Until then, I'll sit at my computer screen and digitize paper documents.
