good at something normal

Another week is gone. Time just flies by now. I can't believe the weekend is almost over too. I've never had this problem before. I remember weekends going on for ever and now they're so short. This week was an interesting one. I started volunteering at the Garden City Library. The one where Allison works. I never see my wife so I decide that I needed to do something about that and this seemed like a great way to do it. She's at work and I get to help her library out. It's not hard work by any means, it's just shelfing books and movies. It reminds me of working for the budget office. There I sort contracts and other documents. My life has been a long career of sorting. I'm really good at it. It's really weird to think you're good at something that really shouldn't be that hard for anyone to do. I've always loved sorting too. It started with my comic collection. I love sorting my comics as a kid. I would take my small collection and resort it all the time. Like in High Fidelity (the movie) I would change my approach to how I sorted my collection, but how I acquired my collection though. It's usually alphabetical by comic name, but now I do it more by character than title of comic. So Amazing Spider-Man is in the S's for Spider-Man. It's a little odd, but perfect for me. Wow this story is just going everywhere today. This week I helped at Allison's library and it was fun. I got to hang with her, maybe not talk, but be around my beautiful bride. I can't ask for more than that. I love just being with her.


On a side note don't forget about ED the Business Warrior. A new comic will come out on Tuesday, but Sunday will have the first special sauce. So go check out some awesome special sauce at http://minidovecomics.wordpress.com.

filing

I started training my replacement for Boise State Budget office assistant. The job is not as exciting as you would think, or maybe you don’t think it’s exciting. How would I know? I just file lots of different reports for the Budget office. I really don’t feel like there is a lot to show someone. I have three more days of training before I’m done working there and my replacement will be there every day I am there. I don’t dislike my replacement. I had to leave at some point and with graduation this is the time. I can’t have a work study job when I’m not in school. The only problem with my job is it not exciting. I enjoy what I do there. I get to work with lots of paper and sort them in many different ways. It can be boring, I won’t lie about that. There are days where I go in and I don’t remember what I did because I was on autopilot the entire time. I still enjoyed the job, but it’s not an exciting one. Well, if filing is boring, try watching someone file for four hours. I was instructed by my boss that I was to show my replacement how to do things and then have her do it. So for four hours I watched her file. I could have jumped out the window it was so boring. We work on the third floor, so it would do some damage. I only have three more days of watching her file to go. I’m not sure if I’m happy to have a job for three more days or to just not get out of bed. I know I will go in. I need the money and I can’t turn up such an easy resource for money. I just wish it wasn’t watching someone file. Could there be a more boring event? I’m sure there is, but I don’t really want to find out. I never want to find out.
