It felt like I spent the majority of my time at work this week, either working or in work related meetings. There was one morning I finished working at and had to be in a meeting at the hospital 1.5 hours later. It wasn't worth driving home to turn around and drive right back.
After clocking out, I decided to go and sit in one of the hospital cafes. I bought myself some coffee, and got out some personal stuff to work on while I was waiting...but if I'm honest, I didn't do much of it. I found it way more interesting to watch the people and traffic outside.
At one point there were several people sitting at the table behind me talking. I wanted to jump into there conversation so bad, but I had a feeling that I would not be welcome. They were talking about traveling to different countries, experiences they had, and learning second languages.
Hearing their conversation made me realize that I feel alone here. I haven't meet people to hang out with outside of work, to share past stories and future dreams with. I suddenly found myself wishing that I had my friends from PA around me.
They left, I went to my meeting and then went home to get some sleep.
