Today's mood: lonely and depressed.

Work was slow today. I work at a local coffee shop now, in case anyone cares. At any rate, apparently my depression or self-deprecating nature is affecting the other employees at work. Guess I am going to have to work on that.

For the most part I get along with my coworkers, except for this one girl. I won't say her name, but suffice it to say that she treats me without even the most basic courtesy or civility. She is all like, "Tim, stop apologizing to me!" But, if she weren't such a...well, better not say it, else risk setting back my growth in my faith. I guess I need to just avoid her. But, is it too much for me to want at least a basic friendliness from her. I'm not asking to be her best friend or anything. But, she treats total strangers better than I do. And as for bringing personal baggage to work, she is ok to customers unless she is in a bad mood, in which case she treats everyone like a...well, you know.

Otherwise, it's been a rather uneventful day. Don't know why I'm feeling down. Oh well, such is the nature of human life, I suppose.
Wow, I haven't updated this thing in the better part of a year or soemthing. Well, a lot has changed now. I'm back home in Rock Hill. After the initial blow up fro my folks about the quitting GT thing, they are supportive of me in my new endeavor. I am now at the local tech school getting certified in computer networking, the Cisco and Microsoft tracks (CCNA and MCSE/MCSA respectively).

Emily and I broke up about 3 or 4 moths ago after 18 months together. Don't really know why we broke up, but I do know that it was and is for the best. A lot better to break up before marriage than after getting married to someone. I should know, being the child of divorced parents. It's hell on the kids. I would rather remain single the rest of my life than go through that.

Not seeing anyone right now, as much as I may want a special girl in my life. But, what else is new? I've been on a few dates, butmost of them went south. Except for this one girl I went out with this week. She is really nice and fun to be around (and quite attractive to boot). She says she doesn't want a romantic relationship now, which is ok. I mean, one shouldn't want that sort of realtionship with anybody until he/she gets to know that person.

Well, it's late. Better hit the hay. Work in the morning and all that.
