I have the golden handcuffs too. It freaking sucks--I make about $32,000 which around here is great money (the rural midwest, yo) and my pay scares away just about everyone that I've applied to. *sigh*

hmm..maybe there is someplace you could go, like a library or comfy coffee shop to just sit a bit with your fav beverage before going home? call it your transitional time. i don't know if that would work for you, but it's an idea. // otherwise maybe inform JAB you need half an hour of alone time, then you can give him your full attention. put across like: "i wonder if you dislike the way my coming home works out. does my shortness and coolness rub you the wrong way at all? because it sure bothers me and i have an idea how it could be better." or something like this..in any case break out the topic without making him feel he's to blame, etc. and i'm sure he'll see the wisdom in what you want to implement. good luck :-) // as for the work thing, sounds like a change in career would be a good thing. if you don't like what you do with over 50% of your time..then well, you are a slave of sorts, no? shake off those golden handcuffs, man! you can do it! // greed, it's the root of all evil because people cannot get enough, just can't get enough(depeche mode? was a popular dance tune way back in the day..LOL). it's all around and when you really notice it in all the everyday things that's when it gets scary of a sort, eh? i say this as i am about to indulge my greed in a good game of the sims. LOL!
