Blah Blah Blah
So, I’ve been contemplating what to write for quite awhile now, and I just can’t think of anything. Doh!
Work is going alright. I will admit, things aren’t quite as hectic as they were last year and I think it’s a combination of things. It’s partly because my boss forgot this one thing that she usually does every year, so we aren’t doing that this year.
It’s kind of nice though.
This has been an interesting week so far though. I got to meet up with an old friend from college who is visiting from the continent this weekend which was really cool. I hadn’t seen her in 10 years! We were both a little grayer, but it was just nice to hang with her for awhile.
This is also going to be the last week that one of our interns is going to be in the office so we are going to take him out to lunch tomorrow. We are still trying to think of ways of razzing him though. Ugh, I wish my printer wasn’t out of ink. I have this really funny picture of him with an asian Ronald McDonald and it would be hilarious if we blew it up and gave it to him. I also just found out that a controversial issue might come up at work tomorrow though, so who knows if the boss will make it to the lunch or not. I am really hoping that we can just go home after lunch. That would rock. I would then be able to get all of my errands done that I have been putting off for a couple of weeks now.
I think I have pretty much decided on the treadmill I want to get and the price has come down a little – I just hope the store will assemble and deliver that puppy otherwise I will pretty much be SOL.
I am really, really, really dreading the last couple of weeks of April. I have a feeling that I will have to work a lot longer hours then since our essential seasonal workers are both part time and still going to school. It is either going to be completely crazy or things are going to go really smoothly simply because there won’t be as many items to go through because of the budget. We’ll see.
Oooof, I have been mulling over this post for the last few days. I don’t know why I have such a block. I think part of it is because even though I used to be pretty open about a lot of things and communication is so much easier with technology nowadays, I find that the technological ease of information dissemination makes me want to not be as open as I was previously.
Maybe it’s because I am older and not as internet savvy as someone younger than I am who is just used to having everything out in the open now, but as I get older, I find that there are more things that I want to talk/write about, but because of these new forms of communication, I am less likely to “share” myself with more people. I don’t know. Maybe I am just weird about these kinds of things. Well, I know I am a little weird, but maybe I am just a little weirder than normal about these kinds of things.
Oh yea and my picture a day thing has pretty much fizzled out. My life is just too boring right now and I pretty much just ended up taking pictures of the same things over and over again. I still need to upload like a month’s worth of pictures though.
I’ve also just been feeling so incredibly frustrated with myself lately. One good thing about meeting my friend this weekend is that it got me thinking about my life and well, my attitude.
I realize now that I really have been focusing more on that what could have or what I think should of been instead of just accepting things as they are and projecting a more positive future for myself. I just need to accept me for who I am and not think that I am less of a person because I am not some kind of nobel winning scientist or something.
It’s late, I should have gone to bed a couple of hours ago, so I am gonna sign off for the night.
