Quiet birthday

March 11, 2005

I am currently the only one in the office. Since the new supervisor started working here in January, he has always been here before me.

It's very quiet. The only sound is that of my fingers on the keyboard and the fans in the three computers sitting at my feet. If I take a second from typing to compose my thoughts, I can hear someone else's phone ringing, no doubt on the other side of the building.

It feels pretty nice to have this quiet to myself. I realize now that I miss it. Before the new supervisor I would have the office to myself until 8.30a at the earliest.

It's Melissa's birthday today. She would have been 21.
