Boredom abounds

I've been in this town for a couple of months. I'm now bored. Not that I've been doing anything that is interesting besides work, but still. Just tired of coming back to the hotel. I'm not sure that I would be doing anything more interesting at home in Dallas though.

I haven't exercised for over a week. It feels like longer, but I know it isn't. I need to make sure I get my ass up tomorrow morning and walk a lot. And a whole lot. I like these jeans fitting so loose on me. I like the fact that I can pull on the belt when I'm sitting in the airplane. I really need to continue to work out, to continue to feel good about myself.

So I went out to dinner tonight. The guy sitting next to me at the bar left his debit card at work and had no way to pay. So I offered to pay for his meal. At first he was offended, then he balked and then he caved. I didn't do it to take his masculinity, I did it cause I could help. He asked for my card, which I don't have, shook my hand and left.  We made small talk, but we didn't talk about anything interesting. I'm sure I wasn't the one he was looking for because he told me he was terrible with names, but he could remember the cute bartenders name.

Oh well. At least I did my good thing.

I finally got my work laptop up and running. Woo! At least now I can do some of the other things that I'm supposed to be doing instead of pretending to do it at a store. We'll see how well it works. My boss comes in next week and hopefully will be able to get me set up on some of the things I'm supposed to do.

Maybe I'm lonely. Maybe the problem is that I'm constantly by myself. I'm going to see Nic this weekend. I'll see my sisters next weekend. Maybe that will make me feel better.
