Busy, busy, crazy busy

God, I haven't written in SO long. Bad blogger!

Quick update:

• work is stressful and busy
• my class is stressful and keeping me busy
• barely made it to Thanksgiving but did get some much needed R&R over that weekend

Coming events:

• UNC CAUSE conference for work
• Christmas parties - including my own
• Christmas shopping and cards (WAY behind on that stuff)

Roommate is making me nuts. There are reindeer ALL OVER. I don't think I can make it through another year living with her. I hate clutter and there is just too much stuff in this house. Unfortunately, I also hate confrontations so I haven't yet worked out how to talk to her about any of this.

Sadly I am even to busy to make this post engaging or fun. This is all you get! I'll try to do better next time.

The glass is half as filled as it could be

I know I'm not supposed to spend too much time waxing poetic anymore, but I'm in such a weird place it's applicable.

It seems like everything in my life is in this weird dynamic of good and bad, happy and sad. Work is stressful and management sucks, but I've been successful at new tasks and I enjoy most of what I'm doing. The house is in flux and things aren't repaired yet. But with all the issues in the housing market I am feeling grateful I bought when I did. I feel surrounded by friends and yet still alone. I think it's about time to make another push in that dating game, though that has been such a miserable chore that I almost think it will make me feel worse.

Gotta accentuate the positive: I have a glass. Glasses hold beer.
