" One of my co-workers got back from her honeymoon yesterday and she has to reorient herself and catch up on a mountain of work. I&amp;amp;#8217;m not sure how she is managing it. She&amp;amp;#8217;s got that post-honeymoon glow. It reminds me of that butterfly feeling you have after an amazing date, and all you want to do is relive the especially good parts of the date, and give all your colleagues the play-by-play (or just the highlights)&amp;amp;#133;I forgot about that high. These days I&amp;amp;#8217;m content just having the mental energy to do my job and see my friends. I&amp;#x27;m not sure I could handle the buzz. But that post-date high is important. Butterflies are important. And perhaps they should get in the way of life and work sometimes. Even if the person who gives you butterflies doesn&amp;amp;#8217;t always stick around. When you do have that high, though, it&amp;amp;#8217;s really tough to concentrate because you don&amp;amp;#8217;t want to concentrate. It&amp;amp;#8217;s like being buzzed from alcohol while at the office (not that I would know)&amp;amp;#8212;suddenly your deadlines don&amp;amp;#8217;t seem so pressing, and your work is just a major distraction from your love life. How do you refocus your thoughts after a particularly good date or party or conversation? Or do you just give in to the daydream and slack off at work?
