I fought the coma and the coma won

Had lunch with [livejournal.com profile] claddah76 today here at the BGA cafeteria. Post-lunch I was in desperate need of a nap (food coma!), so I sat at my desk, closed my eyes and dozed lightly for about 15 minutes, until [livejournal.com profile] ironmanjt called me back from an earlier phone conversation.

This new office is much more monkish than my last one was. Yes, it's great to have my own office so I can do things like sit up with my eyes closed and not worry about getting yelled at, but at the same time I don't have nearly the contact with other people that I'm used to getting and my ESFJ self finds that a tad disconcerting.

Part of it is, I'm sure, my relative newness in the office - it has't fully trickled out that the fiscal law attorney is here now and open for business, so I'm not getting the calls and stop-bys that I used to get at the last place. But part of it is also the physical structure of the office, where I (and four other colleagues) am more isolated from the rest of the office since we're across the hall and down a little from da boss in a separate mini-suite. Unless you're coming specifically to see one of us, there's no reason why anyone would be just passing through, which cuts down on a lot of office chatter/gossip/etc.

But anyway. The 15 minutes was enough, and now am once more hitting this memo they assigned to me yesterday. It's not due for two weeks and I had already written the majority of the thing in an email to da boss last week (before it became a formal request), so is just a matter of polishing now.
