So Sunday night my boss called, and apparently Monday the state said no way jose, we're closing due to bad weather. That left me with my first day being today, Tuesday.
Last night, just like it was my first day of school, I packed my work bag, made a lunch, and most importantly set out my clothes for work.
I wore: Gray slacks, a black v-neck, and ballet flats. All was well except for the flats. They were great in Albany where there was no snow, but when I got to the park and ride and stepped out of my car, then realizing snow almost went up to my knee. The flats were not acceptable. I did soon dry out b/c of the heat on the bus, just to soak it up again walking from the bus stop to the building.
I bought rain boots with pink polka dots to wear until the weather clears up. I'm a little late on this.
I was really overwhelmed today, lots of new things to learn, didn't feel like I was there for a full day, I got bits and pieces of what I'll be doing, tomorrow, I'll be doing the work and have someone tell me how to do it so I'll get a little more hands on experience. Should be pretty quiet tomorrow, I may even get to go home early! Woot!!
I love my cube, I need to decorate it. I got really giddy today when I thought how great one of my wedding pictures will look framed next to my monitor=) Assuming I don't screw something up =). So far, I love it.
Tonight we're supposed to go pick Amy and Josiah up from the airport, hopefully their flight doesn't get delayed anymore, they've had a heck of a time trying to get here.
Christmas is soon! Meow!
