Working Girl

Wow, this last week has cer­tainly been some­thing else. There’s noth­ing quite like going from being a lady of leisure who can sleep in until noon, laze around the house, and spend time relax­ing to being some­one who works 40+ hours in a demand­ing office! It’s been a bit of cul­ture shock, really. I hadn’t been employed in almost nine months, and to be hon­est, I had really grown to like my lazy days spent exer­cis­ing and blog­ging. It’s some­thing I cer­tainly missed this past week. I feel like I haven’t had a spare moment to breathe!

I do love my new job, though. All of my con­cerns were prob­a­bly valid — this job is demand­ing and keeps me very busy and chal­lenged. I can totally han­dle it though — I would say that in these first five days I’ve already learned 90% of what I need to know in order to run the office. It’s a very dif­fer­ent envi­ron­ment from my last job, and I already love work­ing with my new boss! I’ve got ten more days of train­ing, and then I’m on my own — the girl I’m replac­ing leaves at the end of this month. But she seems fairly con­fi­dent in me — I ran the entire office by myself today with­out any problems.

Unfor­tu­nately, as some­times hap­pens when I tran­si­tion from one arena of my life to another, I’m hav­ing trou­ble rec­on­cil­ing the two halves of my self. Sex­ual Thursday’s Child has been put on hold tem­porar­ily — I have to ded­i­cate my full being to this job, and I just can’t be both right now. It kind of sucks — my toy review box is fill­ing up with all sorts of yummy porn, toys and books, but I don’t have the time or energy to deal with them right now. It’s been well over a week since I had sex of any kind, and to be hon­est, I’m not sure when I’ll get to have sex again. I could cer­tainly use the stress relief of an orgasm, and I haven’t had a chance to prop­erly try out my new njoy Pure Wand.

So, to my read­ers, thank you for putting up with me this past week, with my absences and my infre­quent twit­ters. I hope to spend this week­end get­ting my life back to nor­mal, and this com­ing week learn­ing to com­bine both halves of my self. I miss being Thursday’s Child. I miss all of my online friends and fel­low sexblog­gers. It’s like I’m stand­ing still while the world goes on with­out me… But no wor­ries, I’ll be back to my slutty, smutty, kinky self — it just might take a bit to relearn how to be a work­ing girl with one foot in both spheres.
