Do I like being a workaholic?

Dictionary.com says workaholic means "One who has a compulsive and unrelenting need to work".

Wikipedia (my favorite hehe) says "a workaholic is a person who is addicted to work. This phrase does not always imply that the person actually enjoys their work, but rather simply feels compelled to do it. There is no generally accepted medical definition of such a condition, although some forms of stress, obsessive-compulsive personality disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder can be work-related. Although the term "workaholic" usually has a negative connotation, it is sometimes used by people wishing to express their devotion to one's career in positive terms. The "work" in question is usually associated with a paying job, but it may also refer to independent pursuits such as sports, music, art, or blogging (whoops...).
A "workaholic" in the negative sense is popularly characterized by a neglect of family and other social relations. The term has no clinical definition, however."

"Although "workaholic" is not an official medical or psychological term, it remains in widespread usage to refer to those whose expenditure of time on work and work-related issues leads to the detriment of their bodily health, social lives, family and domestic life, or leisure time."

I'm still in the office, just finished a discussion, or rather a "lecture" from the "headmaster". Missed combat and it was a good thing that no one had promised to join that class with me. I hope I won't miss my Thursday combat.

I'm totally fine with working late, occasionally. It can be satisfying being a workaholic, sometimes. But you suppose a workaholic can remain a workaholic and not get tired of it? Or perhaps you might not get tired of being a workaholic, but might get tired of the work at hand.

Actually, I've decided. I don't like being a workaholic. I would like to have balance in life, wouldn't everyone? - I want to be totally committed to work but maintain a hardcore workout regimen. I want to be really busy at work but also want to play hard and spend loads of time with family and friends.

... and I want to have time and chance to post by baking stuff on time, i.e. to post my pineapple tart on the blog yesterday instead of tomorrow (can't do now cuz no time to upload the pictures humphhh...). By the way, I've got some extra pineapple tarts for sampling, only 20 odd pieces. Venue: FF Axis. Date: Thursday (18/10). Time: After combat. Do try if you are there k.

Perhaps I should go home now...
