<p>Oh dear. I can&#8217;t keep up with a blog and work at the same time I guess. Oopsie. I really want to. I want to write. I want to redesign. Again. I actually want to just start a new blog, new name, fresh start, all that. But I&#8217;ve already done that, and you know, that just sounds like a lot of work. And clearly that is not in the cards for me right now. So basically, I&#8217;m just going to keep writing as the (non)Working Girl even though I&#8217;m gainfully employed.</p>
<p>So what&#8217;s it been like, the transition back to work? It&#8217;s hard. I love it. Mostly. I like using my brain. I like learning and doing and talking and seeing SO. MANY. PEOPLE. Every day.</p>
<p>But then there&#8217;s all the learning and talking and doing and seeing SO. MANY. PEOPLE. Sometimes it just gets to be, well, a lot. I miss my solitude. And you know, the sleeping in. NOT that I was sleeping in a ton. Just until 8 or so. Or sometimes 9. Okay 9:30 at the very LATEST. But that definitely does not happen anymore.</p>
<p>So it&#8217;s been what, about three months I guess since I started. And it&#8217;s definitely an adjustment, but I&#8217;m figuring it out. I&#8217;m even still cooking. Sometimes. Not really as much, but I am. And I&#8217;m going to the gym. Not as much, but I am. I think basically I&#8217;m still living the same damn life, I just don&#8217;t get to go to the mall at 3 in the afternoon or go snowboarding or ride my bike to the pool on random Thursdays. It&#8217;s okay. I was lucky, and I know that, even though I didn&#8217;t always feel that way.</p>
<p>I had my time as a (non)Working Girl, and I think I made the most of it. I got laid off. I moved to Singapore. I moved home and I made <a href="http://www.nonworkinggirl.com/2010/01/05/homemade-yogurt/">homemade yogurt</a> and weird Asian side dishes and I had lots of fun. But I was also lonely a lot, and missed working, and I&#8217;m glad I&#8217;m back to it now.</p>
<p>So here&#8217;s what I&#8217;m going to do, I&#8217;m going to try to get back to blogging. I don&#8217;t really know what I&#8217;m going to write about. Pretty much just me I guess. I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ll have a specific topic. Probably still cooking, and kickboxing, and maybe I&#8217;ll complain about how LOST is over and America&#8217;s Got Talent is absolutely ridiculoous and thank God Heidi is leaving Spencer, even though that&#8217;s probably all just a ploy anyway.</p>
<p>Anyway, that&#8217;s me, read if you want. Working, (non)Working, etc. It&#8217;s Jeni. Welcome me back. <img src='http://www.nonworkinggirl.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
