Do we want this? Really?

Sorry, my prejudices are showing. I noticed my comment counter back up this morning, but the link didn't seem to work. Until I have the $$ to pay for any of this, we may just have to rely on my email link, but I'll try to poke in another comment link for this entry.

I feel like I'm about to crawl out of my skin. I don't know if it's the lupron shots I have to take, the birth control pills, or just my work situation. For a bit of background, I've been somewhat underemployed for the last 2 years. I was let go from my radio job for budget reasons, my boss said, although our GM denied to the newspaper that I and 2 other people were let go over a period of a couple of weeks for money reasons. Besides that, I highly doubt that the girl who took my place took a much lower salary than I had been getting. Anyway, I accepted a fulltime job at the agency where I am now, even though it was an Administrative Assistant position, and I hate, hate, HATE answering phones, fighting with office equipment, filing, etc. I took the job hoping to move into advertising. I have been able to write some copy, but nothing much else of interest until a few months ago when the TV producing stuff started. That's been at a standstill for about at month, now, and I'm going crazy. I'm feeling the need to start a serious job search (I'd renewed my online resumes a couple of months ago). However, I certainly don't want to start something new and then have to ask for days off for my egg retrieval and embryo transfer. I've got to stick this out a few more weeks anyway. I think I'll try to have a serious talk with my boss next week if I don't wuss out. I need more money, too, but hate to ask for it until I'm actually doing more. Hopefully I'll have a productive weekend setting up a home recording studio!
