to my routine still, slowly coming out of limbo and gradually starting my 'real' job as I acquire clients. I'm actually looking forward to the cold of winter now. It will give me something to fight against, or to surrender to some times. Things are splintering, people are leaving, it's just a time of speed I think. Acceleration after years of being held back on the steps. Eventually everyone will come together again on the turn...I just hope some of them are the same people I started out with.
So I'm realizing that it's difficult to make friends when you're not placed with 20 other people your age (and often your general intelligence/motivation bracket) for a minimum of six hours a day. Your new co-workers may also be 'breeders', consumed with the life or lives of their children. Therefore, you may feel you have no way to relate to them, and that consequently all your conversation furtherers come off as self absorbed.
"Sorry I'm late, my son just took forever to get ready. I mean, I had to prompt him every step of the way, 'getyour backpack, tie your shoes'"
"Yeah... I did that to my mom also. I remember this time when she started a motivational behavior chart for me using m&ms as incentive... it didn't work til they realized I had never had them before, and didn't like them"
etc. etc.
eh, anyway. I have to get to bed so I'll be rested for tomorrow. ::evil glare towards Nithya and all other federal govt workers::
ps I swear to gawd that if we actually ahve monday off I do not KNOW what I will do but it will be XTREME.

Recent psyc/anthro graduate thanks god she is employed and seeks release from awkward limbo and perpetual existential rumination. The latter hopefully not intruding on this life-account of sorts too much... although it just made it into the description. So no promises.

Hey now, don't hate. It gets made up for in the soul-crushing, mind-numbing minutiae that is my job the next four days.
