Hoover: Enabled

Welcome back, Hoover.

So, the last few evenings have actually been really good. I feel like there is an equilibrium in my life that had been missing for awhile.

I watched The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy last night with Hannah. It was her first time ever being exposed to this story and all its absurdity and it was pretty magical to watch as she was initiated. I’m certain that she was hooked, so I’m sure the BBC series and perhaps even the book are in order. It was a short evening but it felt very full and I really enjoyed myself. Why she walked home in the rain with no umbrella is still completely beyond me, but that kind of weirdness is what makes us get along so well.

Poor Brooks…

I’ve decided that growing up really just means that you start to care less and less about the frustrations of work. Hanging out in the FMC with Denise this afternoon was amazing. She just doesn’t give a shit…and who can blame her after all the years she’s put in under an ever-changing roster of managers and officials? She’s seen it all and really can’t be bothered to get worked up about anything anymore. I admire that. We spend a lot of time laughing and just learning from one another. I don’t think a day has gone by where one of us hasn’t surprised the other.

So, dinner out tomorrow after my hair(s) cut? Not sure yet, but perhaps. If not, I’m happy to spend another evening in. I’m really starting to enjoy them, actually.
