these people who don't like Derrida are idiots. . .

I work too much. . .some blind junkyard dog alliance to whoever signs my check--don't get me wrong I am not a merc. I guess what happens is that I get so wrapped up in what I'm doing I have a hard time disconnecting.

Case in point--at the end of work yesterday, a problem came up with WebCT (the online program our MA in CW uses). In keeping with my new philosphy, I left at the end of the work day--with the intention of going for a walk, eating dinner, watching AMERICAN MOVIE, reading William Carlos Williams, and then bed BUT NOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I took a walk, entirely consumed by the work problem until I figured the motherf%^ker out. I went back to work and fixed everything.

Do I say this out of resentment? No. I really like my job and what I'm doing. I just need to be more mindful of how much time I spend at work or it will become resentful.

I also spent $30 at the health-food store today. . .what the Hell is happening to me?
