I Work. I went to work today, and it felt great! It may seem unusual to you, but my aimless, lazy days that were once refreshing and carefree had become monotonous, boring and were giving me entirely too much time to think about and analyze my life. Such analysis lead to some of my more depressing recent entries. But today at work I didn't find myself worrying about anything. I didn't think about when my career job will open up, I didn't obsess about CA, and I wasn't concerned about making connections here, in SC. On the contrary, I thoroughly enjoyed my work..meeting people, chatting about random subjects ranging from gas prices to Gator pride. I did think about California, and I do very much want that to happen, but the sector of that desire that was fed by my wish to escape confusion and uncertainty melted away leaving something more pure. My desire to have an unforgettable and adventurous Summer in California with a friend, while I still have the freedom to do so. And as to the connection...I didn't have time to think about that, because I was too busy talking all day to a friend, Jamie. I worked with her some last year and we got along well, but since then she's joined my church, and now plays on my softball team. Before she seemed to be more of a co-worker, but today among our various conversations, and laughter, I realized she was indeed a friend.
I received more encouragement from Cali today..when I got home and checked my email, I had a message from the Camp. It's purpose was to make sure I was aware of some key issues about the job before setting up an interview. I was informed about the salary, days off, a dress code and a moral code. I had no problem with any of them, so I replied to the email. Next comes the interview.
