My family moved to Florida just as I started college in Upstate New York. Whenever I was home for breaks, I was working. I made one good friend during my four-year Bath and Body Works stint, but she's in an entirely different stage of her life, so when it comes to hanging out- we run out of things to talk about after an hour or so.
Now I've permanently relocated to SoFlo and landed myself in an office with five men, all of which are at least 8ish years older than me and all have families. Needless to say, any hope I had to find a bar-buddy in the work place has died a quick and dirty death.
I've bonded with some of my younger sister's friends, but have yet to find somebody that's in my "life stage." I can only handle so much talk about who's dating who or what classes the local colleges are offering and my pockets definitely can't handle how much money they spend on movies and food. Wow. Has my concept of spending changed that much, that quickly? They're only 2 or 3 years younger than me. Stupid "real world" life lessons. Psht.
So, I have to admit that my complete obsession with work-related research is just as much due to the fact that I need to kill time as it is a result of having a legit interest.
Have a spectacular weekend. (woot.)
