New Year Happy
January 20th, 2011 § Leave a Comment
The year has started off fairly well. I’ve decided to be more involved with the people at work, so that helps out a lot. Actually speaking to the people I work with isn’t as bad as last year me though. Last year me was plagued with serious anxiety, though. I didn’t want to leave the house, much less be with people I didn’t know at work. Not to mention the last time I made friends at work, really bad things happened. That won’t happen this time. I’ll have my guard up before I get that close to anyone again.
Jon, Seth, and I also started volunteering with Feliciana Animal Welfare Society. We did the first adoption day on the 15th, and volunteered to foster and socialize two kittens they believe will be adoptable once they are socialized. On the 15th, we also adopted a two year old grey Siamese mix. We named him Augusten, after the one and only Mr. Burroughs. We call him Gus (and goose). He’s adapting well. I’m not sure if he’ll ever relax and stay from under the bed for a whole day, but he seems to like us. He’s playful, happy, and soft. We’re very happy with him.
In March, I just found out, I may be going on a business trip to L.A. to a media convention. I’m pretty excited about that and hope nothing changes regarding those plans.
