Work Addiction

I don’t really know how I manage to do this to myself. But I am apparently addicted to yet another thing. Not that I didn’t know this already, really. But I really felt it this morning.

Today is the first day of my 3 day vacation. I woke up this morning at 5:30 and I felt just like I did after not smoking for 5 days. My stomach felt nauseous, and my muscles in my arms and legs have this weird feeling to them. It feels like they are acidic or something. It’s the exact same feeling I’ve had before.

The thing that surprised me about mental addictions is that you can physically feel them. I always thought that a mental addiction would just make you really psychologically want something. Your mind gives you physical manifestations unfortunately.

I miss you work. But it is good for me to get away from you for a while. And not to worry, I’ll be back to you full force first thing Monday morning.
