Lunchbreak Woes

April 21, 2009

I am writing this blog entry during our lunch break here in the office. Everybody seems to be quiet and my nearby cubemates are also doing their own stuff.

I miss these moments wherein I could relax during lunchbreaks. Lately, even my nap time (and internet time) during lunchbreaks are being stolen away by my work. *sigh* I miss those moments wherein I can call my 3-year-old son back at home during lunchbreaks and spend some 10 minutes on the phone with him asking him what he’s watching on television and what’s he having for lunch. I miss those moments wherein I could walk to the mall and window-shop during lunch breaks. Those brisk-walking sessions help me unwind and clear my mind, enabling me to return to work refreshed and more energetic.

Oh well. The price I have to pay for a so-called good-paying job. These are one of those moments wherein I can say that money isn’t everything. I miss my good old lunchbreak days… *sigh*…
