"email me if you want though...I'd like to hear about what you'll be doing "
That just seems strange to me. It's not a bad thing, just part of the undiscovered country. It's not that I have anything wonderfully exciting planned. What's coming up is slightly out of the routine but still, nothing out of the ordinary. It's the desire to hear the ordinary that has me pondering. I don't come from a home where there was a lot of communication in general. I guess we figured that the ordinary things didn't need to be said. Or maybe I just wasn't involved in those conversations because I was the child and really wouldn't have been interested in grown up conversations anyway. It's the "how was your day" conversations that I'm getting used to. I don't think I've ever had to account for a day's activities and my personal feelings towards them ever before. At the very least I haven't had to in the past several years. I tend to devalue the mundane and think of it as uninteresting because, well I go through it every day. Relaying the day's activities has to be an important part of sharing one's life with someone. It's an important part of getting to know each other. I just hope I don't tire of it and get annoyed with having to talk about and listen about minutiae. So far I guess I haven't :)
Monday (it's nearly 1am so it's Tuesday now) was a weird/quiet day at work. We had an interview in the studio this morning to update the university's recruiting video. I wasn't involved in that. The boss in the dept next door to us is leaving. He's been there for as long as I remember. I do have stuff I could be working on there but I just have no energy/desire to do it. Sometimes when working you just get in the zone and you can get a lot done in a short amount of time or at least have total focus on what you're doing. I'm very far out of the zone right now. The LU lacrosse team was in fairly bad car accident. Apparently both vans were involved as well as a big truck. No one is in critical condition but people have broken bones and stuff. That'd pretty well cripple a team's season. Oh, I fixed my keychain flashlight kind of.... meh, that's about all the minutiae I'll muster at the moment.
