Damn Tape!
So I did really well on moving day. I didn't cry once all day, and we were just about finished. In fact I was literally trying to tape up the last box. Then it just sort of hit me that this was the last box, then the stupid tape got stuck to the roll, and it was the final straw, and I just started crying. All in all the day wasn't as hard as I thought it'd be though, and we made plans to see each other for Christmas and next summer.
I've also been spending time with other friends and I think stuff's going to be okay.
I'm a bit...ambivalent about stuff at work though. My manager abruptly and quit unexpectedly quit and there was a big shake up as a result. On the plus side I was assigned to the team of the manager I wanted, but on the down side our team was pretty much completely destroyed and I'll no longer be working directly with any of my former teammates, including the one I was getting to be fairly close with
Still, I guess everything's going to be okay, and I'm always talking about how I like change *shrug*
My cousin was in town the last few days. Her best friend's parents live in Houston so she was visiting with her. It was nice seeing her, but the other day we went out to dinner and she did say something that made me a bit sad. She said, very casually, "I'd never date someone poor" It just struck me as horribly elitist and all around closed-minded. I don't know where she gets off saying stuff like that anyway. By all accounts I had a more "preppy", potentially snobby background than she did and I'd never even think of entertaining such notions. On the other hand she's a less romantic "love oriented" person anyway. I remember the other thing she said a few years ago that made me sad was when she essentially said that someone was a fool to make a major sacrifice for love. Apparently it just wasn't very "practical or realistic".
*sigh* I suppose my family, like all others, has it's fair share of issues and downfalls.
Still, she's also had a more difficult life than I have, so I guess I have no right to fault her priorities.
Anyway, I have some major cleaning up to do before bed, and I have to be up early, so I'd better get on that.
Take care all and have an awesome day
Kevin
