I have now put in two days working at the Patent Office complex in Alexandria, and will now spend some time in my apartment, since I’m a part-time teleworker. It is my habit to drink a mug of chai tea after lunch on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Yesterday, I made the tea by putting the teabag and water into a mug, which I then microwaved, producing a beverage which did not seem up to the standard of the tea I’ve been drinking at home the past two years. Today, I brought an extra mug to work, filled it with water, and heated it by microwave, after which I poured the hot water over the teabag in the first mug. The tea may have been a little better that way. It may also be that the tea leaves are not quite as they should be after sitting around for two years, even in sealed foil packets.

I have also had several conversations with a friend whom I had seen face to face in two years. Among other things, she said that I was less introverted than many examiners, since I had chosen to come to the physical office and see people, even if only part-time, and also from the way I introduced myself to her on her first day in the Electronic Information Center.

I think of myself as quite introverted, but she might be right. The Patent Office, as I have said before, is a haven for high IQ introverts.
