the first day of the rest of my life

Today I became an adult. I now work 830-530 and was the first one in my office this morning. I realized quickly how much coffee is needed and why it is the second largest traded good in the world. I have been here for two hours now and have read an employee handbook and began paperwork for health insurance and other benefits.

However... This only happened after I tuned in to my lady gaga Pandora radio channel and danced around the office alone to "wake up". I'm fooling myself, I am still tired, I'm just happier. So I realize, I have at least 40 years of working and possibly sitting in an office up ahead of me so in order to wrap my head around that I think I will start every morning with an office dance party. It helps I will always be here alone for an hour or so... but still, everyone could benefit from a morning giggle or two.

I still would rather be her..


But I will be okay just starting my morning off positively.
