    i get burned out so much faster than i used to. i used to disappear for a week every six months or so - and that was recharge / refresh / relax time...

    now i'm trying to find excuses to go every two months... i guess this just isn't my passion? thought it was. i'm terrified that i haven't a clue what my true passion is.

    my boyfriend just got a killer new job. he is an interior designer / salesperson / marketing helper at a totally amazing mid-century modern furniture store - and i am sooooooo jealous. the first week he started there we got in a lot of stupid arguments about little things simply because i was seething with jealousy right under the surface. he doesn't get paid a ton - but the owners are incredible (already like family to us) and he just shows up and works his ass off, and wham! paycheck! no 1am panicked client phone calls, no lists of changes 10 pages long, no broke-ass cheapo clients...

    (he is really brilliant at it, and it's not easy - not trying to make him out to be lazy or unmotivated...)

    tl;dr: i am fucking confused, exhausted, burned out and totally jealous of my boyfriend's rad job.
