- "Welcome to the Working Week" by Elvis Costello, from My Aim Is True (1977)
I share this because I'm beginning to learn that this whole nine-to-five business is kind of bullhockey. I love my job, the people in my office are generous and communicative, and I feel like I am doing something meaningful and fulfilling. The difficulty, which I've realized most people live with on a day-to-day basis, is coming home at 5:00 p.m. and being too tired to do anything except sit around and maybe read. Work is tiring, even sedentary office work (not to mention hard manual labor). Maybe eventually, I'll find a really cool job where I can work different hours and not sit in an office all day.
This week, I will try to channel that jaded fatigue into productivity, and will do my darndest to post more here.
Additionally, I saw this really awesome aerial sculpture on the Rose Kennedy Greenway last night. It's called "As If It Were Already Here" and was designed by an American artist named Janet Echelman. Though I took quite a few photos yesterday (I'm trying to take at least one every day), the only photos I have of the sculpture are from my cell phone, and here they are.
As always, thank you for reading this!
