In Re-Entry by Peter Jordan, he says,
What are some of the signs of reverse culture shock? One is feeling "out of place," as though you are a spectator watching from afar. You don't really fit in with what is going on around you. While everyone else seems to be sure of their social position, you seem to hang out at the edges, wanting to paricipate fully, but not being quite able to.
Exactly. I'm SO out of it. I feel like the world runs on around me, but I'm not fully part of it yet. I think I'm going to need to keep adjusting. Gah!
The workout today helped! It is SO MUCH EASIER TO RUN HERE! I think my lungs are super-efficient with ALL the oxygen, because they were so deprived before. I haven't run in almost a year, but today was okay! And then I watched Superman Returns. Suprisingly good! It was good to hang out with my sister and her boyfriend.
Tomorrow, the cleaning, purging, throwing away continues, and it's craft time to assemble gifts!

You know, I've actually thought about a job in ministry. But since I'm not much of a public speaker or that knowledgable of the Bible, I can't really think of what do in that area as well. *shrugs*
