four day weekend Blissfully detached might sound slightly odd, but for the most part the past few days been worry free for me and I like it that way. Whether I am at work or at home, I've kept pretty busy and that has kept me from doing any real kind of introspection. Knowing that I'll have a four day weekend at the end of this week also helps smooth things over. As of right now I don't have any plans to go anywhere. I just want to relax for a few days. I'm not looking for an all out go somewhere new kind of vacation, but more of a sit around the house and read kind of vacation. The only other thing that I might want to do is ride my bike a few of those days. Before I left work this morning Kelly mentioned that she was going to see the same play that I am on Friday night. As to how close we may or may not be sitting to one another I don't know, because someone else had bought her ticket and she didn't know exactly where her group would be. If I do see Kelly there, it will be the first time since I've been at this company that I'll have seen her outside of work and I have to wonder if she will seem a little different. Sometimes I feel as though she has a certain image of herself at work that she works hard to maintain. I'm pretty sure that she doesn't feel the same way about me, because the other day she made a comment that I am essentially myself at work and I like to think that is true. Despite the division that I keep between my personal life and my professional one, I don't have two different versions of me. Generally speaking I try to be me most of the time and find it hard to be something that I am not. Of course this partly explains some of my past confrontations with management where I refused to just accept something that I did not like. Instead of just smiling and then walking away grumbling to myself, I voiced what was on my mind and ended up in an argument. As to whether or not Kelly is two different people is beside the point. All that I want to see on Friday night is a good play and seeing her is secondary.
