Action Stations! Action Stations! Set Condition 1 Throughout The Ship! THIS IS NOT A DRILL

I recently downloaded and watched the currently remade Battlestar Galatica. Well, it's not really a remake... more of a revision. It's really a different show but kinda like based on the original show from the 70s and 80s. I like it so far. I never watched the original so I'm saying I like it from an outsider point of view. There are those that will defend the old series to death and call this one blasphemic, but I'm not interested in that. Anyways, point being is... the title is borrowed from the show when they called battlestations on the ship during the beginning when the war broke out... What does that have to do with anything you may ask? Well, read on my dear audience... it's going to be a bit of a dreary one =P

I guess I'm just trying to instill some motivation to get some productive work done. Despite the drive to want to change during New Years, it hasn't been happening. I find myself still stuck in a rut... not really that motivated to do much on my free time. Heck, I haven't done much during WORK let alone at home. Something is still wrong... I don't know. Given how much this job is draining me, you'd think that I'd already have enough motivation to start working my ass off to get out of here. But somehow, I'm not really. I'm so behind on a lot of work... and I have a review with my bosses on Wednesday... shit. It's not going to look good... especially to our NEW manager. My old manager rarely got involved in our reviews except when it's time to hand in the homework. But this time, the new one is more involved with the well-being of our team. It's a good thing, but bad for me now as I have only this weekend to accomplish anything. Right now, I'm uber unproductive because I didn't sleep in the afternoon at all... I've been up for more than 12 hours now... and I know I'll eventually start collapsing. Gonna hook some hardcore caffeine soon before I lose it.

I need to change something... and fast. If I don't start producing results, the boss is going to be looking over my shoulder for EVERYTHING I do... or worse, I'll be out of a job. Can't let that happen, not when I still have a new car to aim for. That's it... if that's what it takes to motivate me, I'm going to print out a damn picture of the car and stick it on my wall as a CONSTANT reminder... shit... does ANYTHING work for me anymore?
