My butt is back in the office chair
It’s my first day back in the office since my operation. Feels weird. The month of working from home was like a vacation, especially since they gave me hardly anything to do. It was awesome. I got to sit around, being “available for work” online, while watching movies at home, and getting paid for it. I got so spoiled, especially with my honey pampering me the whole time.
But it’s back to the daily commute for me. Speaking of which, my poor, poor car… been sitting on the street for a month practically untouched. You can hardly see out the windows it’s so dirty. I was driving to work, and every car around me looked filthy because my windows tainted the view. I’m driving it through the car wash today, twice.
I’ts easy to slip back into routines though. The conversations I had with the guys I work with were pretty much like this:
“Hey!”
“Hey!”
“You’re back!”
“Yup. Did I miss anything?”
“Nope. Not a thing.”
“Huh. Feels weird to be back.”
“I’ll bet. Well, time to get some coffee.”
Funny how men rarely discuss anything personal. There wasn’t a single question about the operation or my recovery. But I kinda like that. I’m not really into befriending my coworkers anyway.
