WOOO almost free. I can feel it- the way I'm suddenly slacking for no reason. no more alarm clocks or dressy shoes. two more hours and I'm out of this damn office building.
this morning the secretary i've been working for bought all these doughnuts and breakfast stuff and it was really fun to eat and chat and I felt like it was birthday all over again. then she took me out to lunch and that was nice too and the whole thing just made me feel nice. except for the HR people here who are so Fake. drives me crazy. they gave me preprinted recommendations which weren't even accurate but it all comes with a check so i can't complain.
except that now my mother and i have been fighting. she lost and didn't pay my brandeis bill, and then acted as if it wasn't her fault. in fact she just got mad at me that she's paying so much- and that whole thing just gets me all stressed. i just keep waiting for her to pull out.

ugh. this reception thing is SO stressful. there is this one lawyer whose calls I constantly fuck up on and I feel bad because he probably thinks i'm completely hopeless but it's just him, i swear. oh but it makes me SO tense. only one more hour now.
so today we leave for california. tonight we're staying near Florence and the following day as well- then it's off to Sacramento on friday morning and spending a couple days around that area and in Napa and then off to San Fransisco and Santa Cruz and then we will meander back north. I'm rooting for the coastal hwy- woo!
and then... i go back east. man i feel apprehensive. but i'm also excited to see everyone. especially sid who wrote me a letter. three cheers for snail mail. i guess that's it really for an update. oh and I can tell that i am anxious as of right now. ugh. hate anxiety.
