Ramblings

I don't like today. It's just not fun so far. My feet have not warmed up since I came in to work this morning, and I'm wearing wool socks and decent shoes. Plus, part of what makes work fun for me is the people I work with. They're great. But most of them aren't here today, because of the snowy weather.

I'm also not too fond of this weather. I like snow, especially pretty snow - if it doesn't affect my world. Well, it affects my capacity to go anywhere other than home or work, and it affects my co-workers being at work. And I'm just not in the mood for it right now, I don't think. If it was Christmas Eve or something, and I was home with my family, settled in for Christmas, eating my mom's cooking and not really wanting to go anywhere - then it'd be great. Or I remember one trip up to Chicago w/ gRegor where we spent the day walking around Chicago and went to a show that night at the House of Blues (very cool venue, BTW) and it started snowing when we were walking back to our car. A *very* pretty snow. And I wasn't driving, so it was great. Haha. I think winter just came up to fast for me. I'm not ready for it right now.

Oh yeah, and another way the snow sort of affected my plans. I was supposed to go to the Pacer game last night, and I was looking forward to it. I could've still gone, because a co-worker offered me a ride, but I just really wasn't in the mood to go back out after being out and shovelling the driveway and such. So I didn't go. Oh well, hopefully there will be other opportunities. :-/ Heh... I guess I should be more like Sally and just enough the snow and how pretty it is, especially since my drive to/from work still only takes 15-20 minutes, even in the snow. But really - I'm just not in a snowy type mood right now. :(

So I guess my roommate got pissed at me for the first time this morning (well, first time that I know of, anyway). ;) I took an extra-long shower this morning and used up all the hot water. Oops. I don't normally take that long in the shower, I was just slow today. And I honestly just didn't think about it, since I'm not really used to having to worry about anyone else not getting hot water. So... my bad.

Job news - I posted for 2 more open positions here at Sallie Mae, and I now have interviews scheduled for both on Monday. So between that and the other position I interviewed for (that would probably be a lock if it weren't for the stupid budget issues), hopefully I can secure something soon. Like before my internship is up at the end of the year.

I have a short attention span today. I started this blog before lunch, went to lunch, came back, and now I'm not interested in saying much anymore. So... bye.
