    FYI. That doesn't mean you can't be friends as long as you both can remember you're not going for a long term relationship. I'm still friends with most the women I got dear John's from. I just wouldn't say that when you talk to him. Let it happen if it does. Sometimes having a good friend to bounce ideas off of is better than a friend you are having a long term relationship with. There are no expectations when you are just friends.

    I've having one of those nights were if it wasn't for my family, I would walk out and try a different job somewhere else. Just a lot of cases that I have very little clue what is causing the problem so we are treating symptomatically. That's frustrating.

    We'll, the deed is done. He took it amazingly well, which is only further testament to what a great person he is. If anyone needs me, I'll be drowning my sorrows in pastry .

    But you saw my face on the regular this whole time! Are you saying my snarky behavior was missed? lol

    I was asked earlier tonight "Do you have any idea how hard it is loving someone like you?" so I appreciate hearing that!

    Why do people have to make s#*t weird? This guy checked in the other day...I knew he was gonna be weird. A couple days later he stopped by the desk to show me some art he bought. I told him they were cool and thought that was the end of it. So tonight he comes down and I keep seeing him pass the desk looking for me (I stay hidden until someone approaches the desk). Finally he comes to the desk and tries making conversation while I act tremendously busy...then he goes "You like that one metal piece?" I said "Yes." and he goes "It's yours...I'll got get it." OMG, sir...why? I told him we are trying to downsize to move and we can't accumulate anything else but I appreciate the offer.

    He retreated and I'm hoping he stays outta my hair for the remainder of his stay...

    AWK-ward...

    I told them it isn't permanent but honestly I have no plans. Every job I've tried was a headache (not that this one isn't but I know I can tolerate it) and I can't think of a field that I can make a career out of...

    My fiance and I have talked about starting a business but that will never happen...

    That's really awkward. Hope he doesn't ask you out on a date.

    I'm spent. Work is starting to feel more like the Shawshank redemption than a Career

    Just finished all of my paperwork (including ordering books) for grad school, which starts next Wednesday. All that's left is buying supplies-the fun part! Also, I'm a little nervous.
    @sufferlandrian -any chance you can take a vacation any time soon? Hang in there!
