These things are now a part of my life! One large part of me is so excited to have such items of professional maturity - I've never had them all to myself before - but another is worried I'll lose touch with "on the ground" EE as I get more office-y. But for now, I'm syked. I just picked up my business cards today - 100% post-consumer recycled paper, of course - and am breathlessly awaiting giving them away to everyone. "My" office, which I share with "my" assistant, an AmeriCorps volunteer (who is awesome!) is not quite "mine" yet, but I can't wait to organize and put up my own stuff! Those environmental posters I've been hanging onto for five years? They're goin' up!!
So, my first week (training) has gone well, and I now look forward to going to work. I've met volunteers and the board (so far, so good) and been on a tour of the hatchery (lots of stuff to know). The people I'll be working with seem pretty good, and I can't wait to actually get started.
I have one more day of soul-sucking work at the school-who-must-not-be-named. I was supposed to come in next week, but CANNOT! They'll do just fine without me. (@$%&*). I'll be so glad when I'm done with that place.
In other news: Jonathan and I just passed our 5 years together mark! It's been awesome. Also, we're going to visit our good friends Schimmy and Schimmy + pups + new house and forest soon. YAY! And, we had fantastic time hanging out with former IslandWood folks and playing knee coup at the Sculpture Garden (Park, whatever). Good times.
This picture has nothing to do with anything aforementioned. I just like it. Took it at the Volunteer Park Conservatory, one of my favorite places in Seattle.
