Who Likes Work?

I feel like life is flying by and I'm not sure where it's going. I am no longer traveling for work so my weeks are now more 'routine' which I thought would be better but it seems like the weeks go faster now. Everyday I'm bored out of my mind at work but even traveling that was an issue. I really want to know what kind of jobs people have where they are truly excited to be there and happy about what their doing. And how did they start the process of figuring out what they wanted to do? I feel like I've always thought that once I was 'grown up' I would be what I had always wanted to be and do what I wanted to do... except what have I always wanted to do??? Who do I want to be? I certainly didn't grow up saying 'I hope one day to have a prosperous career in the healthcare technology field' or 'Gee I hope one day I can be a cube monkey at a big company'. I don't have any other ideas and this is the role I fell into so now that's my life. I wish I could take one of those tests they give you in school that tell you what kind of jobs you are cut out for when you grow up. Except I am grown up... when did that happen?
