oh, lol. i have a big problem with getting excited/enthusiastic about something (typically when it's still new and kind of my "toy" and im just so happy with all the possibilities) and not being able to switch off mentally at the end of the day.

a part of me says - enjoy it while it lasts!!! i'm right there with you being so excited and jolly too . i think it will settle once you have become used to and mastered the routine... not that work won't be exciting anymore, but it won't be that honeymoon phase where you just feel so joyful just thinking about it either.

but if it's starting to take it's toll, we need to figure something else out. are you typically planning for the next day, or reviewing the one you've just had? if we can figure out what's going on in that over-excited noggin of yours, then we can figure out when to let those thoughts happen at a time that won't eat away at your sleep.

eta: if i'm still pumped about your new job, then i can only imagine how much more zing would be running through your body. lol, i think deli needs a break from being excited for you, too .
