I appreciate the responses thus far.

The problem I have/had was it was a lot of good karma, from farther up the food chain than I am used to. I am not a contractor, but a full time employee. I had already talked to the people who are in control, about my whole resource issue. It's on them on how to best utilize my skillsets. It looks like things will change for me, its just a matter of how.

I was hoping for more feedback on mainly how to go on in my normal workspace, now that things have changed for me. I have become out of touch with the majority of the coworkers in my group. I've always attempted to remain close to my peers, if for no other reason than being aware of whats going on on the network. Unfortunatly this is no longer the case. I'm slightly frustrated by the fact of backing the new project, I have effectively distanced myself, and moved to the proverbial "them" group. I think it may be time for an official change of positions, and again thats slightly frustrating. I guess I was hoping to slip back into the stream and go on being mostly unnoticed and that just doesn't seem to be the case.

I would imagine it would be different in a contractor type position, as when the project is over, so is the job for the most part. You might come back for maintenance, might not. With a full time position its not so easy, or at least it doesn't seem so at this point. Life will go on and I'll figure it out, I was just hoping for some deeper wisdom, in regards to maintaining in the current workspace. Looking at my original post, that didn't come across, my bad.
