they think
I'm crazy,
bounding out of my
paper strewn offices,
chuckling to myself
as if eliminating
electro-magnetic interference
could result in my
grin lending itself
to shine.

They don't know
I've been wasting time
online
receiving funny
transmissions
that aid in my chipper disposition

getting my daily plate
of "this can't wait"
friendly updates
that make work-related
interruptions irritate.

telling myself each day
that I'll ignore the
yellow box flashing
or resign myself to
engineering power
contraptions...

but each time that I try,
curiousity cries and
I'm enjoying the
day away, giggling
aloud at times,
making some people
here think its a crime...

that I love my job so much.
