"You don't have a problem with diversity. . . you hate everyone equally."
So today, I'm up at 6 am to trudge off to downtown Atlanta for my Diversity training. I don't mind the hour and a half drive. . . actually I like the drive. Gives me time to think and all that. What I hate is the traffic (which is why it took me an extra 30 minutes). I have a HUGE road rage problem. I think my job has caused this. . . I seem to have turned into a real bitch since I started it. So I get to Atlanta and wait for someone to tell me where the hell the training room is. The Atlanta office is so big and so easy to get lost in. I finally get to where I'm supposed to be and I see a friendly face. Yay! My pal from my side of town, Dwight, is taking the class with me. Dwight cracks me up all the time. It was so great having lunch with him today. We never get to bond outside of work. He's very funny and very interesting and very cute. Of course, he's taken. Been with the same woman for almost 6 years and he plans on proposing later this year in New York City. *Sigh* Oh well, another guy that I can't have. Story of my life. Of course, I do partly blame him for my dislocated knee (Note to self: if Dwight says to work out instead of sleep, just SLEEP!). Anyway, he said I should get an apartment in downtown Atlanta. . . says it's more my kind of environment. Probably so. Anyway, Diversity training was actually cool and kind of interesting. I feel really bad for all the male bashing I've done in the past. So, if I've offended any man that I know and/or love because of this male bashing, I apologize. So it was interesting and I met some cool people that work in our Atlanta office. And even though it was supposed to last until 5, we are let out at 4. Yay! On the way home, I call my grandmother to finalize plans for this weekend. We somehow get into it about Michael Moore, gay rights, and politics. I think that I may be too opioniated about that stuff. Is that a bad thing? I think I may need to tone it down. I mean, opinions lead to anarchy and all that. Who needs to form their own opinion.? But my grandmother said she doesn't like politics because it pisses her off. And even though she's supposedly pro-choice and pro-gay marriage, she's still voting for Bush. And she couldn't even give one specific example of why she disliked John Kerry. She was very vague, which I found interesting. I mean, if she were a true Bush supporter, wouldn't she have specific reasons for voting for him?? Oh well, whatever. I'm just too political, I guess. So anyway, I come home and my Internet connection (which was not working this morning) is still down. So I spend an extraordinary amount of time on hold with the phone/Internet company. Finally, I talk to a very nice guy and we reboot the router or something like that. And yay . . . I'm online again! Whoosh. . . going through withdrawals alreasy. And then, it's a wholesome snack of Teddy Grahams and milk. Yum, yum. And now it's all about mindless TV time and precious sleep. If you haven't seen the WB show, "Summerland," you should. It's got the Full House chick in it, Lori what's-her-name. Anyway, it's that, Will and Grace, and then sleep.
