New Job

I have been at my new job for a week now. I have to say, I am definitely getting more comfortable with things. I was so nervous that I was sick last week. I went to our family Christmas party Friday night so exhausted I could hardly think. I kept myself up at nights and had the worst headaches and heartburn all week.

So, this week, not so bad. I am still having really bizarre dreams about work, but nothing that is keeping me up at night. I just wake up hoping the dreams don't come true.

This office is so quiet though. There are two cubicles about 20 feet behind me and two others about 20 feet to the left of me. The main door to the office is down a small hallway in front of me to the right. The cubicles mute a lot of the sounds, and the door is rarely used. So I feel all alone and if I didn't have the radio on, I might go nuts!

It doesn't help that this week is a holiday week. There are a lot of people out on vacation and that always makes things more quiet. I am used to having residents coming in to visit when things are quiet. No one visits here.

Oh, I take that back. Chip came over 2 times on Friday, bringing packages that had been delivered to the Brigham for me. Not exactly the visitor I would have wanted, but I guess better than nothing.
