Long and Short

So back to work. Good thing I'm not a mathematician. Everything went much better than I thought it would. Not that anything really amazing happened, but I didn't get the scolding I was expecting. It did take a while for me to get my boss caught up on everything that had happened in his absence, though. But here is the breaking, awesome beyond awesome news: I'm going to Spain. For real. I made the hotel reservation today. Technically, it could be cancelled, but some money would be lost. And money shouldn't be lost, so I'll be going. I'm really stoked. It still seems kind of unreal and crazy, but it's done. So New York in July, San Sebastian in September, Napa in October. It seems pretty cool that I'm going to be traveling a bit this year. I like traveling, and those are pretty cool places to travel. I'm a little nervous, but only because it seems so impossible and improbable. The only downside is that I'll be doing all of these things by myself, and those are all places where it would be better if there were someone there to enjoy it with you. But fear not, I'll be taking lots of pictures. Ridiculous amounts of pictures. I really hope I get a raise, too.

My office, as it turns out, is going to move as well. They are planning to sign the lease tomorrow, and then it will be a done deal. We'll probably start moving our office within the next few weeks, which will be a little nuts. It also means new business cards, new signs, and a whole lot of other stuff that have to do with me peripherally. I am looking forward to the new business cards, as the color on the last bunch was a little disappointing. I know it sounds silly, but it's the little things that make me happy. Plus, the best part about the new place is that I'll be able to walk to work, which I'm hoping will save me a fortune on gas money.

So I guess that's the long and short of it. I'm going far away, and staying close to home all at the same time.
