Just got back from a weeklong in-service training at
UC Santa Cruz. It was beautiful, but my schedule was so busy I didn't get to see that much. Everyone in the program with me is pretty awesome. It was really neat, by end of the week we all felt like old friends. Maybe even sooner. The guy running it the AmeriCorps program says we gave him the best feeling out of all the groups he's been in charge of. And maybe it's just that I've been coming across unusually good people since I left Florida, but I think I'm starting to be less intimidated by meeting new people.
Tomorrow: Roller derby and costume party.
Next week: Training in L.A.
After that my life should settle down a little more, I'll at least be staying in one place for a while.
Oh yeah, I get to go to a camping retreat on Catalina Island with AmeriCorps in February. Brr!
