I don't know what is going on with people at the new job, but every time I've been asked where I am from and I respond, "Wichita Falls", it's like their brains stop at "Wichita" and or they think I add an addition word or something. Today was the funniest though with the HR guy asking me if I have had a winter here and that it would change my mind about going back "north". I totally didn't understand what he meant but I said something about how the weather is much the same since WF is still in Texas.
Then it clicked and I kind of turned to look at my fellow classmates and they are all a'smirk about it. When we had our break they were ragging about it, really getting giddy about how much it is happening. But then one of them asked if WF was in the panhandle an I just lost faith in Southern Texans altogether. One of them thought my reaction to their ignorance was particularly amusing as I was acting like they were uncultured for no knowing about a small city up state. I thought that seemed rather amusing myself.
It wasn't such a good day in terms of getting all the material. We really only worked on examples all day but I would miss something or another on each one and it was cold and I had to bundle up with my legs to my chest which made me sleepy...lalala, whine. I also didn't write anything today. I got home, took a shower, and gave in to Thursday night television. I am not going to kill myself to write something that isn't even going to hit the per day word limit. I will make an effort to write throughout the month and get a good chunk of something down though.
