(no subject)
I'm down to two more days at work. This is going to be a sinch (sp?). In a way it makes me feel like I could have stayed another week, but when I think about it, I was crazy for thinking I'd only give myself one week off before moving to Madison. That's crazy talk. I have shit to do, people. Anyway, I have little cares in the world these days. It's a wonderful feeling. I kind of feel the way I'd hoped I'd feel all summer. Hopefully it will last into the school year.
It's funny thinking about my entire work experience, looking back on it. Everyone at work knows it's my last week and in a strange way I think they might miss me a little. Most of them were pretty cool to me. A couple took a while to warm up to me, and one or two never did, but all in all I think they liked having me around. They were certainly patient with me, more patient than they had to be, I think. Mike was really cold to me at first but I think once he realized I was just there to do my best, get my money, and make it out alive, he realized I wasn't so bad after all. Even Al has been joking around with me more lately, probably because he knows he's getting me off his hands in two days. I wondered today if I would miss any of those people or the factory experience at all. I don't think miss is the right word to describe how I'll feel. I'll probably look back in a few months and feel a little nostalgic if only because I know I won't ever have to go back, but all in all I'm glad to be getting the hell out of there. I certainly have some stories to show for it.
Next up is a trek to Bloomington to move home the rest of my stuff. I'm really excited to go as usual. There won't be too many people there because of Lollapalooza but it will be nice to have some time with a smaller group than normal. I might even stay til Monday or Tuesday.
