Farewell

No I am not going anywhere. But another first happened last night. A farewell to some of my coworkers. Now I worked in a coffee chain for about 4 years. I have seen people leave, not every day, but fairly often. The difference is that these three are transferring to another office in another city. Wrapped in this were all sorts of things for a very new experience.

1. There are just some areas of town that I rarely go to, and never go to at night. That is just how it is. Not that I am afraid of such places, but more that I just don't have the party lifestyle and enjoyment that comes with certain areas at certain times. Was some of the crowd a bit different than at usual social gatherings? Probably but I wasn't there to hang out with the crazies so it worked out.

2. A live band. I have never gone to eat or hang out anywhere (other than a loc concert) that they had live band. And of course the largest table for our group? Right by the band....we had all sorts of pretend conversation for lack of being able to hear. Something I loved? Not really? As you will learn throughout this year if you don't already know...I am totally tone deaf and barely notice music....but this was very noticeable.

The restraunt/brewery that we went to was very new. I am not a beer person so that wasn't that exciting of an experience, as well as not wanting anything because of exciting things happening today. But I have never been with a group this large somewhere like this where we weren't all stuck at he table the whole time so your conversations are short and sweet.

This experience wrapped in a package is my new thing for the day. Yes I have sheltered myself a lot in the past. Keep it real 2012.
