A brief interlude...

Nothing particularly interesting, however I've discovered a few things (and I think I may have said some of these before):
* I've lost the ability to handle small talk. Just that little bit of back and forth with people seems very awkward to me know.
* I've developed a definite way I like things organized. We were in an organizational meeting today and I just couldn't stand how thye were going about things - too 'band-aid' and not looking at the issues from a top-down approach.
* When I am tired, I have major problems speaking.
* If I speak up about something around here, I am assumed to be the expert on it. Or that I am volunteering to do it.

Ah, the art of Not Getting The Action Item. I know it well.

I understand the small talk thing, I'm horrible at it and I hate to do it. I'd rather get right down to a real conversation about something exciting, meaningful, and/or interesting.

yeah, me too. I dont mind pleasantries and all, but beyond that, well, it seems like a waste unless it's a real conversation.

Welcome to being a geek.

I've come to despise small talk. However, as a receptionist, I have to suffer through it.
