So I think it's because my team lead treats everyone like naughty children, that I'll never get along with her. She's the type of person that singles people out to make fun of them in front of a group. I. HATE. THAT. I think it's horrible.
Luckily, there are 2 team leads. I get along with the other one better.
Also luckily, it really doesn't matter if I get along with the people I work with, or if they want to be my friend or not. All it matters is that they think I'm skilled, and have a good attitude. As long as I get my work done and we smile at each other, it'll be fine.
It'd be nice if I had some friends here, though.
Last night I realized that I do get lonely, sometimes. Having Andrew around makes it easier, because I always have someone to talk to if necessary, but I don't have any GOOD friends here. So of course it's more obvious while he's away.
I've gotten used to not having close friends at work, and just having "acquaintance" type relationships with work folk (although at my last job, I made friends, and that was cool, it was the first time that ever happened).
I sure would like to make some new friends, though. Of course, what would rock would be having all my friends nearby, but that's not going to happen any time soon.
Ah bleh. It doesn't matter.
Last night wasn't much of anything. I didn't get home until after 7, and I went to bed a little after 9. I didn't even work out. I was tired. But I spent an hour shifting around and being tense, and then I didn't sleep well once I drifted off. Worse yet, I woke up at 4am and couldn't get back to sleep. I took advantage and got here for 8am, a little earlier than usual, and I do feel ok, but... I probably should have worked out. I was worried I'd make myself sick, which is why I decided to take the day off, but I guess I was a little overcareful. A good workout would have cleared away the physical stress and I would have slept better.
Ah well. Tonight.
Today I'm going to work a couple of extra hours, then tonight I'm going to stop at the liquor store to buy some white wine, and then I'm going to make Paella (that's what the wine is for), and maybe I'll even get my butt in gear and go buy a box for D's prezzie. Or at least today I'll see if the big post office here takes amex and has boxes. If both are true, I'll just take everything down here tomorrow and use it as an excuse to get out of the office for a couple of minutes. And I'm going to work out. And stretch. And if I have enough time, I'm also going to have a bubble bath. And maybe, (I know this is ambitious), call Shannon, Olivia and Justyna. (Heh. to get that done, each phone call would be 2 minutes: "Hi, how are you? Good to hear it. Bye!") Heh. I should call them when I'm in the bath, instead of reading.

mmm.. bathtime!
;)
And maybe sometime I'll remember I can call you, too! I'm so out of it lately.
