Other side of the coin

Since I usually blog about the job when I feel awesome, I thought, in the interest of balance, that I should share when I don't.

The quantity of work is picking up and I'm definitely "whelmed."  Treading water, not sinking, but there are some decent sized waves looming in the distance and time is slipping away. 

I had one of those days that makes me feel like a terrible writer, completely incompetent and unworthy of the trust placed in me.  This often happens when I get feedback, however constructive, that is less than positive. 

I also had one of those days in which I felt like I was spinning my wheels, that anyone else would be able to untangle the mess I had before me, and do it better and faster.  Alas, the mess, it awaits for a fresh attack tomorrow... which means it could eat another whole day, which I really can't afford to have happen.. 

Its only temporary.  It goes in waves like this.  But yeah... not my best day at work.
