After spending a great weekend doing everything that I wanted to do, I made the realization that I live a fairly simple life. I realize that it would be fabulous to hit the lottery or become the talk of the town, but I'm not seeing that happen any time soon. So I'm perfectly happy to live the life I have.
Some people I work with are content to fly off on business trips each week barely making time for their family and friends. Me, I'd love to travel, but weekly trips, days on end in empty hotel rooms, eating alone...that's just not my thing! As monotonous as cube-dwelling is, at least I know where I am going to be on any given day of the week. And while it's not perfect (not yet but I'm getting there) what's not to love about the ability to work from home on a day when you just don't want to go in? Don't get me wrong, if a job as, let's say as, George Clooney's personal assistant, came along, I would jump at it in a heartbeat ; )
And while I'm not really living in my dream house just yet, I have my own little world that's decorated as I want and holds all my favorite things. I have a wonderful family that loves me and close friends that I can count on.
Yes, it's a relatively simple life, but it's mine and I'm ok with that!

Isnt there an ancient Chinese curse like "may your life be interesting "?
I think you're right: Maybe that's why I'm boring, I haven't been cursed : )
