Interesting fact I realized just after seeing this that outside my boss and five minutes in another building, I interacted with absolutely nobody for 12 hours until I got home.

It was wonderful.

Funny that. I've talked to over a dozen people this weekend not counting the haircut. The closest person to me physically was about 1000 miles away. Two skype calls, a tech support call with a guy in the Philippines and a few chats with the game buddies out of state. I probably talked and interacted more people this weekend than a person at work who counts themselves as a "social butterfly."
