I failed to mention this in my frozen grumblings earlier.
Today is quite the milestone for me. Today, January 15th, is my two-year anniversary for being in this job, my first professional job, at my alma mater.
I determined today that I believe I may have been in shock my entire first year back here. I never expected to set foot on this campus again, and yet, I found myself living two miles away, jogging the same streets I had jogged as an undergrad, seeing some of the same faces, and calling my professors by their first names (as per their requests).
Strange world we live in. Strange world indeed.
Two-year anniversary but I just feel lousy.
My home is cold and I'm alone, my favorite person away on a business trip to a warm southeastern Disney city. I've no one to celebrate with and, frankly, I don't feel much like celebrating. The cold has seeped deeper than my bones this time, unfortunately, and I don't really know how to thaw out.
