Simple things my parents have been trying to teach me for years
Just a brief check-in. This has been a good week for me. I was kind of a mess, last week. I had been very disorganized and made a fool of myself more than once. At the start of the week, I decided to finally set-up the file cabinet next to my desk and organize the paper strewn across my desk. All of a sudden, there was a complete 180. I have been on top of my game all week. People have started giving me new assignments and, in general, I feel like I have found my place within the organization. I briefly considered buying a blackberry, yesterday, simply to further inflate my sense of self-importance, but I think it is too pricey.
I am also pondering getting a dog. The companionship would be nice, but I am not sure if I am ready for a 10-13 year commitment to another being. That speaks to my life in general, I suppose.
I am feeling increasingly comfortable in my environment, but I still feel that there are large portions of the city that remain foreign to me. Last weekend, I just started walking and wound up down at City Hall. There are parts along the way that are lovely.
