Today was a poopy day. I had my annual review at work, and for the 4th year in a row they offered me a piddly little raise after giving me a glowing review. Apparently I'm great, but not good enough to give a real raise to. It's insulting. And makes me feel like a sucker. I imagine them sitting around saying, "oh, pegasus won't quit no matter what, so let's not give her a raise". I almost cried during the review when my boss mentioned the size of my "raise".
Plus, then my boss gives me this big new objective for the year that involves deadlines and the project would be led by another person. Which seems dangerous to me. Plus I'm trying to wrap things up for my maternity leave, and the last thing I need is more vague stuff on my plate that I don't have total control over.
Did I mention that I'm 7 mos. pregnant? It's, like, 4 in the morning, and I have heartburn if I go horizontal. Plus I'm obsessing about how I can deal with this work stuff. Plus, I keep saying "Plus". And my body is so big and cumbersome and achy that I can't get comfortable. The baby keeps moving around like she's annoyed at how often I change positions.
Bleh, bleh, bleh. Except for the baby who is wonderful no matter what she does in there.
gumpily,
