went back to work today, and it felt like i'm being eaten up again. don't get me wrong, i love my work. i like what i get to do everyday and get paid for. it's just that, as in every business, the soul of it gets drowned out by trivialities. whining customers with problems they can solve for themselves, if they would just stop and think. reporting backlogs and stuff like that. can't i just sit down and code?
of course, i do not want to start my work week this way. i had a good laid-back weekend, after all. maybe i got used to that pace, that peace. lol.
anyway, one of the first things that i dealt with today was my chatty co-worker who just wouldn't shut up about this couple she met at the bar. the two intimated with her that they were into nudism, and were looking around for venues in Knoxville. my co-worker (not to name names, and not wanting to call her names lol) almost choked on her cranberry vodka. she was appalled to have been asked by them -- as if.
i wished i was in her place instead. i would have been more helpful and non-judgmental. actually, i dabble into a little nudism too. i'm with Funtime Getaways.
i'm into it because it feels good. it's more natural -- if there is such a thing. i feel less cluttered and freer. of course, i'm sure many would sneer at this. many think there there's immediately a sexual angle in becoming a nudist. that's actually one of the major misconception to this lifestyle. here's a pretty good article about it: http://www.thisblogrules.com/2011/05/top-10-misconceptions-about-nudism.html
i sure the couple coped well with my co-worker's rebuff. they should be used to that by now. i just wished they'd asked someone more open, and didn't have to put their lifestyle choice in check.
