I’ve been thumbing through the micro.blog users that I see with similiar interests to me, so I have been following a few folks here the last two days. Hopefully this is the preffered method of developing this little network, and no one takes offense to it.

The weather is not on my side today it would appear, so a trainer day it is.

I’m currently procrastinating on going for an hour long bike ride. Some sort of nonsense in my mind about needed to “decompress” before I go…

Work and the day off.

I felt a need to put quotes around the “day off” portion of that sentence. Before one can consider answering it, you have to consider the phrase’s definition. I mean, a day off what? Work? There is work everywhere. When I come home each day, I know I have enough work waiting for me to never face much “leisure” time in my foreseeable future.

Is it time away from my paying job? Well, I can make a strong argument that work done to improve my home will be more valuable than my salary at some point. With the pandemic pushing folks to work away from work for over a year now, there is a new normal.

I think we are at a point where we redefine the nature of “work.”
