I am

I've fallen into a funk again.  I'm so bored with every aspect of my life, I could just SCREAM!  Instead of scaring everyone and possibly beckoning the police to my door, I've shed a few tears and am contemplating something...anything that will shake me out of my rut.  I even looked into couch surfing across the country in search of my promised land.  I didn't seriously entertain that thought, but it was an interesting escape.

I'm re-evaluating my job, college, Denver...EVERYTHING!  Although I work in the Emergency Department, I still shuffle papers every night.  Not rewarding in the least and it's excruciatingly boring.  The thought of taking classes for 4+ years just to be confined to a different cubicle is driving me mad.  And what if I end up not liking it?  Then what?!?  I'll have wasted a lot of time and a lot of money and be right back to this square.  FML!!!

I'm not meant to be boxed in.  I'm not meant to work for someone else.  I need to be creative and I need to be my own boss.  I don't want to have to be at work at a certain time, put in this many hours and leave at that time.  If I want to screw off and go to the mountains for a couple of days, I don't want to have to ask anybody except the people I want to go with me.

That being said, I'm going to go soak in a bath and contemplate my next move.  I hope to emerge with a clearer mind and a game plan.

i remember when i felt just like this. i knew i was meant for more. sometimes i look at my life and i wonder if i made the right decision. Whenever i walk away from a family and they give me a huge hug and thank me for helping them, I know that I did. you'll find your calling... it just hasn't dialed your number yet.

I just hope my number hasn't been permanently lost!
