If we took a holiday
Totally anticlimatic last day of work. I didn't show up til 10 (dentist appt, not totally slacking) and I left at 3. I did nothing but clear off my computer, put my feet up on my windowsill and chat on the phone, and took a long walk around Lafayette Park. Productive, eh? My boss asked me to stay on as a temporary, part-time consultant; I guess they're going to do a continuation of the pandemic flu preparedness survey I did in January and want me to stay on to help with it. Works for me - if I get this other job, I won't start til September so that's perfect. Clearly, my flu expertise has become institutionally renown. Then I left at 3. I said goodbye to one person. I shed zero tears. I did manage to finagle a bunch of boxes from a recent Office Depot shipment. That was exciting to carry home on the Metro.
The roomie demonstrated some amazing culinary prowress tonight: deeeelicious shrimp pad thai. Yummmm. Now I am just sitting here anxiously awaiting my departure to Regan to go pick up my man. Being the best girlfriend ever that I am, I got him "Walk the Line" and 2 tickets to The Da Vinci Code (thank you fandango) as a happy first year of med school done slash happy first year of us dating slash happy no more long distance. Mucho to celebrate this week - all of that, a graddyation, an almost birthday, and a wonderful year of living in DC with one of my best friends (and not killing each other - amazing, I know.) I think I am officially ready for the weekend to start.... now.
