Today was my last day of work! Goodbye Relay! I’m kind of sad to see the old place go…I worked there for two and a half years. Hard to believe. Anyway, the key words are “kind of”. It’s a relief to take steps toward The Big Day of February 25th and I was getting pretty sick of telling people they had dialed Relay by accident. (Note to General Public: DO NOT dial any 800 number that has TTY or TDD listed near it because it will take you to a relay service and cause operator misery if you are only trying to reach Columbia Gas Company, Alltell, your social worker, or the Treasurer’s Dept)
Yesterday was my last Wednesday night meeting. It kind of snuck up on me. I’m going to miss that little meeting. It’s become very dear to me this last year because I’m in town more consistently on Wednesdays than on the weekends or Sunday. All these lasts…
So, le weekend…I need to remember to return my library books and pay all my fines so The Library People don’t come and kidnap Sarah for ransom or something. I need to make some phone calls. I need to figure out how much winter clothing I’m going to use between the time I leave Moorhead and the time I leave for Chile. I need to pack. I need to clean my desk. I need to go to Wal-Mart to stock up on Mentadent toothbrushes because that is the one thing that I will not make any concessions on. I need my Mentadent. Unfortunately, the toothpaste cartridges are a bit bulky and I’m concerned that a suitcase full of toothpaste may look a tad suspicious. Ay, yi, yi. But it’s an exciting sort of busy. And Ryan’s coming home and that’s wonderful.
I think I can get back into the blogging habit. I’ve forgotten how liberating it is to pontificate (blab) in a public forum. I know I’ll have a few faithful readers so I hope to write at least one blog a week to keep everyone relatively updated. Thanks for reading.
