Raise your hand if you got a job yesterday

Meeee. I got a job yesterday! Aaaah! Excited, nervous, do I get business cards?! I’m going to D.C. in two weeks. What books should I bring with me? Must get new purse. Must get hair cut. Shoes?!?! Must mail check to future place of residence. Must contact people I know in D.C. and plant seeds of friendship. Must ask Mom and Dad to take care of my betta fish. (They'll be so thrilled.) Aaah, I got a job. I’m a real person now! I’m no longer scared of the question, “So, what are you doing these days?” “Actually, I have one of those job things.” Aaaah! I am so legit. Too legit to quit … because I have a job. Job job job job job. What if I’m terrible? Must bring tennis shoes for daily morning workout. (Haha.) Must go shopping at Filene’s Basement when I get to D.C. Must save money to visit Meryl in France. Must be responsible, mature adult. Must grow out my short, boyish fingernails. Must pack magnet from Mom that says,“I was never meant to work.”

  2. Must take your tourist DC book back with you. Must take notes so that when Kyle comes to visit, we'll have a bunch of stuff to do. Must ride the Metro without Kyle. Must get your favorite salad from the Longworth cafeteria.

  3. Thank you, Kacie!

    Kyle, my Metro ride will be so boring without you around getting your backpack stuck in the doors. And in response to the rest of your comment, duh. Can't wait to start reading my D.C. guide book again.

  4. Yeah, if you don't come visit me here I'm not moving to D.C. when I get back.
    (Okay I probably will with enough convincing. And if there are many froyo places within walking distance.)

  5. Sam, I'm real happy for you and Ima let you work at your job, but why'd you stop blogging??

    For real though, congratulations on being a gainfully employed now!
