L'end

Sadly, this is my last day at work. My quitting has turned out to be very well-timed, though, since I will be radioactive tomorrow.

That's right - radioactive! I'm having a test done to see if I need my gallbladder taken out (I'm scared of surgery, but would like to be able to eat again before law school starts). After this test, I'll be radioactive for a day, and should avoid contact with small children. I probably shouldn't find this as funny as I do, but we all know I have a rather weird sense of humor!

Anyway, I'm finishing up some last projects at work and trying to organize and clean off my desk for my replacement (as yet unnamed; the woman who was supposed to take my job failed to show up!). As a farewell, my coworkers brought in lunch and a going-away cake, which was super sweet. I will really miss parts of this job, but I'm SUPER excited to be heading to Boston soon (barring unforeseen nuclear events in my intestinal tract).

This is the sweetest song I've heard in a while: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbJtYqBYCV8

I caught it on the radio driving back from Berkeley Springs, and thought I'd made a quirky little musical discovery, which is funny, considering this: http://www.upi.com/NewsTrack/Entertainment/2007/07/19/plain_white_ts_unseats_rihanna_at_no_1/3767/ . I guess you could say I'm a bit out of the loop, musically speaking!

So, in the spirit of (real) quirky musical discoveries, check out this awesomely funkylicious band that I love: http://www.thedittybops.com/

Testing...testing...

Hello, Internet! I am testing out this newfangled "blog" as a way to communicate with my far-flung friends while I'm off in Boston, doing this thing called law school. It should be fun! (Naysayers beware, I am endlessly optimistic about how much fun I'm going to have in law school.) Anyway, I'm still at home, but I'm super pumped to go to Boston soon, so I'm getting everything ready; I've already made an Excel spreadsheet of things to pack and things to buy at IKEA.

As part of my preparations, I've created this lovely blog, so the lovely people I love (can I say love any more in one sentence) can satisfy that burning desire I know they all have to keep up on my travails. But this is just a test.

Here is a picture of some of those people I love, to test out this whole picture posting apparatus:
