Sidetracked, But In A Good Way

Now I’m of consenting age
to be forgetting you in a cabaret
Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen may even ask my name

As she sheds her skin on stage
I’m seated and sweating to a dance song on the club’s P.A.
The strip joint veteran sweeps you away
Smirking between dignified sips of his dignified peach and lime daiquiri

And isn’t this exactly where you’d like me
I’m exactly where you’d like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety

Well I’m afraid that I
Well, I may have faked it and
I wouldn’t be caught dead in this place

It’s amazing what can take your mind off of the thing that bothers you most in life. I have been very busy at work lately, and I haven’t really had time to think about a certain someone. I found that I have been pretty much happy because I don’t have time to dwell on the past like I normally do. I also even met someone at work, she seems pretty cool. I’m not really thinking it’s going to go anywhere, but we’re hanging out tomorrow night so we’ll see what’s up.

I am still in training at work right now. I have two more weeks in the classroom after this week, then 2 more taking calls as part of training, then I’ll be out on my team. It’s going well. I start to learn the tech part of my job next week, so I’ll be comfortable in that sense again. So now I have to get some homework done for school, write an essay, etc. I’ll update again sometime this week.
