Happy Thanksgiving!!..
Happy Christmas!!!...
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!....
So my absence from writing is strange. I was overwhelmed by work the last couple months of 2011. My boss went on maternity leave so it was left to me to do the work of two people, of which, I had little knowledge/practice of doing her work. So ya, that was fun.
I made constant notes in my journal/to-do book of things that I wanted to write about but just never got around to it.
Well now I have plenty of time. You see, I have been let go from my position... budget cuts. Woot woot! (major sarcasm in that statement) I am now a professional job searcher (...again) I really need to stop making this a habit.
Don't sweat it though, I have a couple good prospects. One of which I REALLY want and would be an awesome opportunity to work with amazing, experienced, and in-the-know DCists. Lots to learn from these folks. But at this point its a waiting game. Something Im not particularly good at; patience. I know, I know, I always say its a virtue but do as I say, not as I do :)
Updates:
besides loosing my job, on a happier note- I have moved into a new house (or at least new to me) in the Bloomingdale neighborhood of DC. And I completely love it. I have had a bunch on friends in this area and would visit often. So now its my hood too!
I got a new set of wheels! Totally makes getting around the city easier. No more waiting for the metro, bus, taxi or the long arduous walks everywhere. But those who know me know I love walking so thats not really a problem at all.
I got a sweet vintage Schwinn Continental and its in fantastic shape!
I spend my days lately at my fav new place, Big Bear Cafe. Spiffy lil joint with the BEST mochas in town. It fills in the empty hours of my day.
I know that this is a picture of tea, but let my explain. At this point of the day when I took this picture, if I had another cup of cafe au lait I would have jumped out of my skin. I mean really, I was already so jittery.
