Found the light at the end of the tunnel

So, basically, I've been enveloped in my job for the last 2 months. It's been quite an experience. Some fun, some confounding, some interesting....mostly time consuming. It's always interesting to come into a job and be an outside voice asking for efficiency and change. I think the comment i got most in answer to my questions was "Well, that's just the way we do it. It's the way we've always done it." It's amazing how afraid of change some people are. Grow a backbone people. Thank God for my assistant Vincent. We have worked really well as a team and it's been great to have at least one other person on the same page, who is able to laugh and who despises office drama as much as I do.

Anyway. The sun is shining in Seattle and I'm signing up for sculling classes. Miss rowing (did some in Boston on the Charles River - rumor was if you fell in the water you'd either grow a third arm or lose a limb) so I'm going to get back into it starting in July (the job will be over by then).

I'm also getting ready to move. My Soldier is going away and I'm going to housesit for one of the guys he works with. I'm really, really going to miss our water view and going to miss being in walking distance from grocery store, coffee shop, video store.... sigh. It all balances out with the money we'll be saving from not paying rent. Think we're going to start packing up this weekend.

Oh, and a little bus drama for all you who read my last blog entry. I was waiting at my Seattle stop and these 2 guys started beating on each other. It didn't last too long, but it was kinda bizarre.

Anyway. Need to get one more thing done so i can go home. :)
