as_it_is - my adventure continues (part 4)

[asitis]

So, I'm trying to be more scarce generally. When I'm around W be friendly and casual. But when I'm not, I don't want to give her the contact. Of course this is hard working on the same floor. Often, however, I can go a day wo/ running into her.

Of course this week we had Labor Day (although I was in catching up on work because I'm a tool), so didn't see her then. Was hoping to make it through today. Nope. Talking w/ a colleague we're both long time friends w/. W come up the stairs and we're right there. So she stops to chat.

I know. Good thing. But all I could think of after is, I want her to actually feel what it's like to not have me around, and this isn't her getting to stop and have a quick chat is giving her just enough that it fills her need to stay marginally connected without actually feeling the loss of connection.

It's almost like trying to detach and distance when you have an in-house S. Guess, I'm just in a glass half empty sort of mood today.
