when it's just really too late.

Have you ever been in a situation where you really should have met someone, but you never did, and now it's way, way too late?

I'm definitely in that situation. There are about 200 people that work here, and on my first and second days I met a ton of them. I can't remember most of their names, but it's not a huge deal because we all have name plaques on our cubicles, and I've met and learned all of the people's names that I have to interract with on a daily basis. That is except...

The woman who sits next to me. Yeah. I never met her. She was away on a reporting trip my first couple of days, then on her first day back she never introduced herself to me. And now, we just go straight to our cubicles when we sit down and that is that. But last night, I was saying goodnight to everyone on the area and I couldn't just ignore her! "Goodnight, Mitch. Goodnight, Don! Goodnight, Jenny!" I said. Then I got to her desk. "Goodnight!" I said. She looked up and replied, "Oh, uh, goodnight."

You're probably asking yourself why I wouldn't just say "This is so crazy that we haven't met yet, but hi, I'm *blah blah. I'm an intern here. I'm from *blah blah." But don't even try to tell me that, because it is way too late. As in, weeks too late.

Also, on a side note, my outfit today consists of ripped converses, holey jeans, and a plaid, casual button up T.

She is in a fancy red dress with heels, much like this one. If you ask me, though I am underdressed today I look more like the normal one. C'mon! This is a newspaper not a fancy gala ball!


Ok so I'm slightly exaggerating. But still. We are in two different, different worlds. And it is too late to fix this. Too late I tell you!
