2004-11-16 - 12:49 p.m. Work is fun. Fun fun fun. Someone lit our building on fire today. We got to go stand outside for half an hour. It was boring, and a little brisk, but not really cold. So yay for Chinooks. Actually, I don’t think someone lit the building on fire per se…but there was actual smoke and stuff. Apparently they are doing some work in the basement, and “something” happened. Of course, if something happened in the basement, I’m not sure how the smoke got onto the 7th floor (we’re on the 6th floor, btw, and saw no smoke whatsoever. In fact, we thought it was one of the many false alarms we have here). Oh well. It was kinda like the world’s most boring field trip EVER. I also found something out. I don’t think I like some of the people in our office. In fact, one of the people that I have the most in common with, I find kind of…I dunno, abrasive. I mean, it’s not that there’s anything wrong with her, but she’s just not One of Us. I really can’t say whether she’s uneducated or not, but from the way she talks, it’s the impression I get. Maybe I’m the only one who sees her that way. I know. I’m shallow. But why do all the single moms I know who had kids in their teens always seem like reformed trailer park trash?? Do I come across like that?? I probably do, you know. Hmm. I don’t think I like that. I mean, I joke a lot about being “white trash”, but really, that’s not the impression I want to give. I know I’m not Einstein or anything, but the picture I want to leave with people is not “uneducated loudmouth”, more….”moderately clever girl with fun, possibly eccentric quirks”…? This isn’t at all where this entry was supposed to go…the thoughts just sort of developed all on their own while I was typing. Damn thoughts.
