Heals The Original Dryness

i am now offically employed by the university. after much ado, i got paper work filled out, got to campus, got all orientated, lots of familiar faces, lots of new faces, lots of nice people tho. i missed mike, he would have fit right in. i feel like if we worked together we wouldn't hang out much outside of work as much, and that it would be a challange for me at least to be just completely professional at work and seperate that from any kind of relationship outside... i feel like a certain amount of our chemistry is in the mystique
so during our orientation tour, we were being introduced to the mondo power cables that will power all of the dimmers in the glen. and there were supposed to be two of them. but one of them wasn't there. it seemed to have been cleanly cut off with a saws-all about 2 or 3 feet from the power box. and it was general concensus that this was not supposed to have happened. so by lunch, bill b. comes in and says DH is going to get a police report filed, and we spend the next part of lunch discussing why the heck people would steal a 5lb per foot heavy cable, copper recycling apparently, but not of the recycling facilities in the area have gotten anything of that size dropped off, so we are once again at a loss as to why the hell its gone. it was really amusing, it was incredibly surreal, and a little intimidating having all the big guns standing all around looking at this tail of a cable (theres a special name for it but i can't remember it) wondering what the hell happened.
end of day, big ol potluck, lots of food, raffle, someone else won a shirt that they already had but i didn't have one, so they gave the ticket to me. got a ride home, dave decided to come over the hill, we were going to go to the boardwalk but it was closed. i dont think business is doing well for it. and i think ticket fares have gone up. we played air hocky instead, then went to saturns, then hung out and caught up and talked and bitched about people at my place. we were supposed to go smoke out with my friend chris (who came over last night cause i knew i'd be super lonely since i had just gotten back from san jose and james was no longer around, again just hanging out, but he stayed at let me cuddle with him til i fell asleep and he left around 3 in the morning. it was a little confusing waking up in my clothes and wondering where the other person had disappeared to) but didn't work out this time. i'm friends with a lot of functional stoners right now.
mmm, must sleep now. must get myself on a 9-6 work schedule ability
