A few developments at work. On day three, I arrived to find that I already have an engraved nameplate on the outside of my cubicle. I have arrived!
It is freezing cold in my office, so after a few days of shivering and drinking endless cups of hot coffee and tea, I came equipped with a big fuzzy hoodie to wear. The girl in the cubicle to my left brings a blankie. I am preparing a survival kit for next week.
I have also come down with a cold. It's a really bad one. I was all bummed out because I didn't want to be the new-girl-with-the-snotty-nose (no one wants to shake *her* hand hello!) but then I discovered that *everyone* gets a bad cold the first week they start here. It's like initiation. Maybe they need to wear down your immune system in order to make you more emotionally susceptible to the mush you'll be reading. You're all vulnerable, wrapped in your blankie, sniffling, and then suddenly the lovestruck heroine seems so much more relatable. Hey! These books are GOOD!
