I'm just not sure how to make that happen...
Keep going over to their desks and talking to them about random stuff. Suggest they start a wiki.
Wait...no...that's just weirding me out.
Today the role of ita will be played by the cowgirl. I think I'll be breaking in the boots this weekend. Are they really a weird thing to wear? A weird thing for black people to wear? I got an extended strange look in Coffee Bean.

Mom's family can be easily traced to three people on the Mayflower, one of whom fought the first recorded duel here. We are a grumpy people.
Jesse, ask them where they go for lunch. Is their desk nearby? Go by sometime and say you are going out for a coffee/soda, do they want anything.
Nobody's desk is nearby, and we all go to the cafeteria... I mean, the people in my department are close, and we do all go to lunch sometimes. But there are so many people here! I think as I have more meetings with more different people it will work itself out.

Oh, hey! That's who Greensboro (where I went to grad school) is named after! Also he was at the Battle of the Brandywine just up the road from where I grew up in DE.

Cowboy boots are cool. That looks was pure admiration.
I just met a coworker who was wearing Scrabble tile earrings of her initials. Cute! I know there are people here I can be friends with, I'm just not sure how to make that happen...

What's a mash note, Jesse? Do you maybe want to do one of those?
Signed,
Work Friends? Whut?

Wow, Berdych just stormed through Djokovic, didn't he?
That's who I'm now rooting for, Dana. With a broken heart.
It is also beautiful here, about 72 and sunny. But I am full of gronk. I already took the kiddo to nature day camp (which is an hour round trip, ugh), went to the psych, and to the grocery.
I should do something productive in the yard, but I just want to lay down and read for a while.
