Signs That You are Burnt Out

You're so tired you now answer the phone, "Hell."

Your friends call to ask how you've been,
and you immediately scream, "Get off my back,
jerk!"

Your garbage can IS your "in" box.

You wake up to discover your bed is on fire,
but go back to sleep because you just don't care.

You have so much on your mind, you often forget
how to think.

Visions of the upcoming weekend help you make
it through ...er.... Monday.

You sleep more at work than at home.

You leave for a party and instinctively take
your ID badge.

Your Day Timer exploded a week ago.

You think about how relaxing it would be if
you were in jail right now.

This made me laugh.  I was telling my daughter that a break in a mental home
would be nice about now, the other day....

LOL----I haven't thought about  jail being a good break but a hospital
stay has crossed my mind more than once!!!

Always,

Excellent collection, Evelyn.  Thanks - it's going out to friends by e-mail.

The last one reminded me of a book titled 'The Professor and the Madman: A
Tale of Murder, Insanity, and the Making of The Oxford English Dictionary,'
by Simon Winchester. It profiles Dr. W.C. Minor, a substantial contributor
to the compilation of the Oxford English Dictionary in the 19th Century.
Dr. Minor was an inmate of a Victorian insane asylum, having been sent there
for murdering an innocent man during a paranoid fit.  I read it at a very
difficult time, and kept thinking the inmate's life sounded idyllic to me.
