I am the prodigal son...
familiar ground
Boy, it's good to be back...well actually, I've been back for four days now, but just now am I feeling adjusted. I usually don't suffer from jetlag, but I think I was gone so long I got used to it. I stayed out in the sun(which is what they say to do so that your biological clock adjusts to the time where you're at), for about 15 minutes today, and honestly, it's made me feel better. I haven't really been sleepy all day...well, I also got about 9 hours of sleep last night...which can be contributed to taking a certain someone to the airport at 5 in the morning, not being able to find her flight cuz we had the wrong info, and then going home and back to the airport on my way to work(ahem). But like I said, aside from people being away in other states, it's good to be back...back in familiar territory, back in my own bed, back to blogging on regular(Pacific Standard Time) time. I would have to say that those two weeks spent in New Jersey were probably 2 of the loneliest weeks I've had in my life. I literally went out like 3 times...once in the day to visit some friends in the city for a few hours, and two movies... I mean, I im'ed w/ everyone and talked on the phone practically everyday, but actually being with friends makes a huge difference. I did get a lot of alone time, and I got to think a lot, about where I am in my life, where I see it going, and so on. And I know that if I were to ever be alone(God forbid) somewhere, I would be able to hang. But nonetheless, the dark cloud of loneliness was bound to creep in eventually. So I was so glad to see everyone at Cic's b-day and I will be again this coming friday for Belle's.
It's good to see that nothing has really changed and that I didn't miss too much. It makes me feel better about things. I hate when you come back and everything's changed. Some things DID change though, my office looks totally different...because of the 25th anniversary for Alpine, they washed all the windows(which I have been talking about doing for months now), they replaced the entire lobby with leather furniture and discarded the old ones, placed all these cool displays up there in the lobby as well, and cleaned everyone's work stations(even the people that were away), and the whole place just looks a lot better. It's nice...I guess yuo have to go all out when the president of the entire company AND Mr. J.D Power himself come to the office...too bad I missed out on all those festivities.
My room is a complete and utter mess, I have 3 weeks of laundry to do, and I have bills stacked up the yin yang sitting on my desk...it's time to get to work...
