On: Bon Voyage BSA...

July 3, 2008 was my last day at the BSA. I have to say that I had the pleasure of working with the best co-workers I've ever had. Also, I sat in the greatest cube of all cubedom-- they (cubies) took the liberty of strategically hiding Big and Small (the wooden drawing figures) on day the last... Very sweet.

Admittedly, the last eight hours were full, but not hectic. It was actually a very special day, full of Cilantro's and toasting frozen yogurt with J, L and M. Every office should have a J, L and M--the thought of not seeing them during the work week anymore is very sad...


And so the last day came and went. I filled out the paperwork. I said my goodbyes. I caught the 43 (Davis Express Bus) one last time, and then I walked home listening to Collin Hay, Ben Folds and Paul Simon--while humming. Then I sat down and took in the days events, trying to digest the fact that the following week, I would not be going back to the office. To a degree, I still feel like I'm just enjoying a long weekend...

This morning as I was washing my fork in the break room sink, Jen L. came in and I asked her, "Did you do anything fun last night?" To which she responded, "Well, I went to JP's thing..." and at this point I interrupted her and said, "oh no! I completely forgot about that!!"

Anyways, what I'm trying to say is I'm super sorry that I missed your little going away party! I was so going to go!!!!! I heard you had a great turnout though.... I'm so sad I missed out! When do you take off again? We miss you already here!
