Musings
I'm back from Sweden.
The trip was good. I got to see my family, most of the childhood friends I'm still in touch with, as well as a handful of other friends. And Stockholm was as beautiful as ever.
Now that I'm back I'm feeling a bit off though. Wishing there were more people locally I could talk with as easily. Wishing that my everyday life was a bit different, so that it would be possible to have the same kind of social interaction as I do there.
I don't think it's impossible, but it does require me to get a job elsewhere, one where co-workers actually socialize after work.
In other news, I'm frustrated because of a certain someone's flakiness. While the flakiness is not unexpected (in fact, I was explicitly forewarned), it does bother me.
I'm not sure how to deal with the situation either. I'd like to do *something*, but suspect that the proper thing to do is to do nothing. And for me, that's often the hardest thing to do, at least with someone I'm used to interacting with on a daily basis. Feh.
