Zuisa, I hope you find some equilibrium with all the new people quickly.
You may find that there is a natural progression that occurs with the changeovers there. When I worked at an 8 week camp, by week 3 friendships had developed, week 4 was a social event every night, week 5 was when everyone needed alone time, weeks 6&7 were super busy with work but social, too, because the countdown to the end had begun... It just takes a couple times through it to recognize the pattern.
every time a set designer ever asks for a gloss floor, you can hear the paint dept crying in misery from miles away.
Will no one think of the lighting designer?
sarameg, what brand of sander do you have? I think I am getting one for an early mother's day present today.
Having spent many summers in archaeological projects, I learned pretty fast that I'm not the sort of person who gets genuinely attached to others in 8-10 weeks. Everybody would be crying at the end and I'd be like, "I barely know you people!" Possibly I was made wrong.
Possibly I was made wrong.
not for Buffista Island.
By the end of a summer teaching sailing, I was just about ready to get my head around the differences between what people said, and what they did. I knew I liked quite a few (mostly the ones where words and actions lined up), but I needed to know why before I did the hugging and crying. And then there was the required 'ok they're my friends, and I've decided I'd like to keep them around, but what if I do something dumb, or they realize I'm a huge fake, and they don't want to stick around?' tango that my brain did for a long time. Back when I cared about people.

Hmm, that one, like every sander under $100, has half 4-5 star reviews and a bunch of 1-stars. So hard to decide who to believe.
I got the recommendation from beth's Matt.
Owen just told me I need to order HBO because, "I would really enjoy a show called Game of Thrones."
beth's Matt knows wood!
Timelies all!
zuisa, all I can offer is {{{Hugs}}}.
I have fallen for Words with Friends. I'm suziq68 for anyone who wants to play.
