The Real World: Day 2
Work today was much better. Although I still feel incredibly overwhelmed by all the information and jargon, I am starting to see the light. Even if it is the smallest glimmer. Out of the thousand processes they "explained" to me yesterday, I am starting to understand 2 of them. Yippee! Tomorrow I'll start "driving" (as Mark calls it), and I'll be working the data in real time instead of practicing. He'll be right over my shoulder, of course, because when you are working with real time data on the network of a multibillion dollar company, you can't afford to upload the wrong stuff. The jargon and reasoning is still a bit of a problem. I don't understand it all just yet...but the steps of the processes are becoming clear and I know that in a few more days doing it, I'll really beging to comprehend the meaning behind it all. I'm really excited. I like it there.
The day ended as usual. I came home and started dinner until Dad came home and helped out. We had grilled pork chops with a sweet bbq kind of baste, white rice, and green beans. It turned out pretty damn good. So now I am full, I will be finishing up this journal entry in the next couple of minutes and then I'll be off to wash my face, brush my teeth, and talk to Casey until I can't hold my eyes open anymore. That will be my life M-F. It actually isn't too bad. I just wish I could see my friends more often than on the weekends. Eventhough Mom and Dad are around, it still gets awful lonely. I miss my guy, I miss my girls, I miss dancing, the Chicken, games, drinks, talks, questions, batting cages, porches...etc. I miss my old life. Oh well, I guess you have to become a grown up sometime. BAH!
