The trouble with blogging is...

...when I have something interesting enough to put up a post about, I don't have time to blog, and when I have time to blog, I don't have anything interesting to write about.

Case in point--Jan. 4 I started a new job. It's Jan. 25 and I'm just now getting around to writing about it. Mainly because the day I started, my boss sent out an email to everyone saying that, starting the next day, everyone was going to be work mandatory overtime, until 7 each night, for the next two weeks. I still have about a 40-minute commute, so that meant I was gone for about 12 hours every day. I was a little worried, of course, that this might be a regular thing, but on my way out the door, my bosses (it's a husband and wife team who own the company) apologized profusely, and said it's the first time in four years they've ever had to do it. Oh yeah, and I'm still working 10 hours a week at my old job.

So other than that, the new job is going well. It's a bit of a transition, being as it's the most "business" job I've ever had. Not exactly brain surgery, but interesting enough, and with enough variety in what I do that I don't get bored. And it pays way better than anything else I've ever done. Plus I like the people I work with--everyone gets along really well.

In other news, I've barely heard anything from you-know-who at my old job. I got a "how are you doing" tagged onto the end of a work-related email yesterday, three weeks after my last day. Basically, I've come to the conclusion that he's so scared of becoming more than friends that he doesn't really even know how to be my friend, and he's using this as an opportunity to distance himself. I'm just tired of it, and done playing games all the time. I'm tired of waiting around for him to figure out whatever it is he needs to figure out, without having a clue what it is he's trying to figure out.

The thing is, if he'd ever treated me like just a friend, I'd be fine. But he either treats me like way more than a friend, or the total opposite and acts like I'm some annoying girl with a crush, and I'm tired of feeling like a ping-pong ball. So I'm done trying--if he wants to be my friend, he can start acting like it. But I'm not going back and forth all the time anymore.
