Little Plastic Castles

Work is definitely slow. It almost feels as slow as last week. Bizarre. I guess I should be happy that I am at least out of the house. I have been back at work now for 2 weeks. Part of me almost misses my daily boredom and mid afternoon nap. But my office laid off a few people today, so I am glad I am back in the office proving that I work and I am not dispensable.

Thanksgiving was good. It was weird not being at my own house. That part will take some getting use to. The thing that REALLY bothered me was that no one talked to me about anything other than my knee. For FOUR DAYS STRAIGHT. Some people even reverted to repeating the conversation. I mean, am I that unintelligent or boring that people didn't really want to put forth any effort to have me join in on a conversation. Having Justin's little brother and sister around helped the most. They could careless about the knee. Needless to say....there were some tears on the ride home just because I had gotten so miserable.

We did go look at some houses that Justin's dad is building out in Haymarket. They were gorgeous. We have no idea if we can even dream of affording these, even with a family discount.

I am having a nostalgic day. Typically when I have these, it is of Blacksburg and of grad school. But today is of high school, which NEVER happens to me. There are a lot of people that I was really close to in high school that I haven't talked to years. I just realized that my little high school boyfriend (who is now married with child), I haven't talked to or even seen since 1998. Just seems crazy. Deepdown though, I still feel like a few of these people I still know. I knew them well enough that I cannot fathom their personalities changes so much that they would be any different. I feel like I am the same person pretty much. There are definitely a few people that I would love to get to see.

Okay, I am starving. need to seek out some afternoon snack.
