And yet another closing shift

I really must fit in a few more hours of sleep and a shower before I go in. I'm not really relishing a Saturday in the company of customers, but it's a living.

On the upside, I finally opened a Facebook account last night, and *bam!* got in touch with several of my high school classmates. There may yet be a second chance for me to have meaningful friendships with these nice people, seeing as how the first time I was too busy being reclusive, socially inept, self-absorbed, and sorry for myself. High school, I suppose, is difficult for a lot of people when they're in the midst of it--it certainly was for me, and it took me a long time to come to terms and be at peace with it. But getting back in contact with those who I should have spent more time and energy being friends with in the first place may be the final stage in putting the painful part of those years behind me. We'll see.
