I spent a good 2.5 hours straight in the recording studio at work today. The worst thing about all of this is that what I recorded will only play a few times on the air.
I don't even think I got to see my desk for more than 15 minutes this afternoon. And now I'm feeling it. A lot.
To complain, I am having a hard time keeping my eyes open, the back of my neck hurts and who knows what condition my throat will be in come the morning. Yeah, I'm whining. It hurts, OK?
I'm still working; I'm at IU until 10:00PM. This is my Tuesday and Thursday routine these days. (5:30AM to 10:00PM, roughly) It's the easiest way at the moment to keep these pockets lined with cash bank deposit receipts. I wish I could find a better part-time job closer to home, but this second job does allow me the luxury of catching up with my daily internet picks and to work on projects non-work related. (i.e. this site)
This is not nessasarily the worst I've ever felt, but I know come tomorrow morning that I'm going to feel pretty awful no matter what. And the day after that as well. The worst always comes the day after next. By this Friday I expect to be mentally gone and physically exhausted.
Curling up fetal on the sofa has never sounded so good.
Be seeing you.
Jason P. Thompson is a 20-something web and graphic designer. I currently live in Bedford, IN and work at three small-market radio stations based in the same city. At work I wear many hats including IT Consultant, Webmaster, Graphic Designer, Assistant Program Director and Morning Producer. I do work in radio, so assume that I only get paid for one of those jobs.
I went to school for a career in TV or film but I have found myself down many different careers paths since that time. Perhaps I will never have a life long career (even though I have been currently employed at the same place I was hired on in high school back in early 2001), but that's OK with me.
When not at work, I enjoy keeping up with film, television and graphic design. Television is a particularly "bad" vice of mine; I try to give every new show at least one chance before committing one way or another.
