Unwilling Update

I don't feel like writing, but it's been nearly a month since we last spoke and I feel like I owe you something.

Things have been eventful; I just haven't figured out how to motivate myself. The end of August... I don't remember what was going on then.

I've been working. It has been nice. I'm making progress on not being such a lazy-ass. It is going as well as can be expected. Tomorrow morning will mark my push to wake up at 6am once more. See, I had to get used to getting up at 6.30 with the help of 2 alarms (one stationed across the room), and now that that is going well, I am pushing it back a notch. My sleep schedule is not the most exciting thing I have done since August.

I bought a TV, a receiver, speakers, a glass and steel stand, and more cables than I care to recount. Also, a Roku HD for good measure. It is a glorious setup, and it is cause for much celebration. It is also cause for significant credit card bills, however that is to be expected.

I went to Virginia Tech for a few days for a recruiting trip. I helped man our booth at the career fair and spent all of Wednesday interviewing kids for internships and full-time positions. It was curious, to be on the other side of the interviewing table. I didn't feel quite qualified to be asking questions of these people, essentially my peers. I managed to get the hang of it, however, and I hope that HR will gain some use from the notes I took.

We get a whole week of casual dress this week. Upon hearing this news on Friday, I got excited. Then, upon realizing that I had gotten excited about being able to wear jeans and sneakers for a week, I felt sad. Ah, corporate America.

This post is awful. I don't want to be writing. It's just not working.
