well kids, it certainly has been a while. started an internship in DC yesterday (unpaid, the best kind!). I now understand the reason why people get fat as they progress into adulthood, and that reason is leftover pastry trays from morning staff meetings that sit in the kitchenette next to your desk calling your name all day long.

doing some late night filing.

oh, what a thrilling and dangerous life I lead.

“reset paper tray” has become my PC load letter.

nothing like feeling perpetually incompetent at work all day to boost the ol’ self-esteem.

• used a black pen to write my initials on the to do list; we use a blue pen.
• sprayed windex on the counter before wiping; we spray the towel first and then wipe.
• wrapped a gift with regular scotch tape; we only use double-sided.
• came in only 15 minutes early; apparently I was the last one there.
• forgot to put new cover sheets on my TPS reports. yeahhhhh.

• fallen asleep standing up at some point.
• forgotten how to speak English.
• attempted to put my lunchbox in the microwave.
• asked whether or not to put the receipt in the bag roughly 298673281 times.
• thanked jesus 328619 times that there’s a starbucks next door.

however, I did come home to my family and a delicious christmas eve dinner. it all evens out.
