And my psychic antennae tends to be well-tuned with a history of picking up hidden truths.<\/p>\n<p>I woke up at 5:40 am for the second day in a row. At least I got almost 6 hours of sleep but something is really bothering me.<\/p>\n<p>Today my goal is to focus on work.<\/p>\n<p>I really need someone who communicates consistently.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, we had a marketing lunch last week and I walked in when half the team was seated so I had two choices&#8211;sit by one of the designers or sit by one of my teammates from the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>I really like my teammate. Huge fan of his game&#8211;his hustle, his work ethic, his good attitude, his quiet confidence, his unselfishness. He&#8217;s a winner. I always say you can tell a lot about a man from how he plays basketball. <\/p>\n<p>I admitted to my friend at work I really liked him as a person but he&#8217;s very young. Plus, he still lives at home. Plus, I&#8217;m his boss&#8217;s boss.<\/p>\n<p>So I wanted to sit by him but I didn&#8217;t want to be obvious so I sat on the other side by the designer instead. As soon as I sat down, I saw the serving wheel turn and there was a cup of tea in front of me. I look up and saw my teammate had done it. Subtly considerate. He&#8217;s a good guy.<\/p>\n<p>I kept catching him looking at me throughout lunch.<\/p>\n<p>Lately he&#8217;s been messaging me a lot at night because we are in the same fantasy basketball league and had tried to pull a blockbuster trade the first week that got vetoed. Almost every night.<\/p>\n<p>I told Shello this morning, I&#8217;ve got one guy who disappears periodically, and another who is consistent. Guess which one makes me feel better?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sometimes I think I suffer from raging paranoia but it&#8217;s not really paranoia if what you feared turns out to be true in hindsight.
