Life is a journey not a destination...
The end is near.
I am going home in a week! I finally got my transfer and i only have to survive 5 more work days in this place. Its weird being here now. Ginny left. Kimber left. All i'm left with are Austin people- for what its worth, they all seem nice but i miss "my friends."
I got to see some of them this weekend though. I drove to San Antonio to Kat's and we went to Lake Charles to meet Steph and Robin for the Northwestern/McNeese game. We lost by 5 points! It sucked. It was nice seeing them though, we went to dinner and to the casino and met up with my friend Chassidy at this red neck country/cajun/rock bar that looked strangely like a VFW hall. But we made fools of ourselves trying to dance so its all good.
Today i went to a flea market in Winnie, Tx. with Steph and her family. Its funny, the day we evacuated for the hurricane i was supposed to go to a flea market. I had it in my head that i wanted to get one of those antique phones and i really wanted to spend that Saturday shopping for one and then my parents made me go to Houston with them. Now here i am 2 and a half months later and i still don't have a nice phone but somehow that seems ....unimportant.
So i'm very bored at work. My boss quit right after we got to Austin. The only other remaining manager who worked in the same dept as me has quit/got fired (long story) and so now i am basically running the entire residential call management dept (which is what i do, incidently). That being said, i'm ready to give it all up. Last week i had my one year anniversary with the company (how scary!) and i'm the only one left in my dept that is still there- i have these random new people working for me here. And its just so different than it was before and i don't feel like i have anything left to learn or do or whatever. So... i decided i want to do HR. The company i work for is small and i dunno, weird. And i think i'm be good at doing human resources. Either that or work on a train line-- i miss traveling but i've already done the airplane thing, which sucks because all you do is go from point a to point b and you don't see anything along the way. A train is the exact opposite, its not about where you started or even where you'll end up, just the experiences you have along the way...
