W initiated conversation at dinner tonight! Started talking about how she is sure she made a good choice in signing with the company she did. I stopped eating, looked straight into her eyes and agreed with everything she said. Sympathized with her for how stressful the onboarding process was. Of course it all means nothing; it was remarkable only in its rarity.
Going out GALing tomorrow night with a new group. Totally out of the box for me, and I am SO looking forward to getting out of the house for a little levity.
