eventful days

Since my return to DC three days ago, I've celebrated (1st and 2nd celebration, at least) my birthday, signed my new contract, given notice to vacate my apartment, and told my boss I'm planning to leave work at the end of the month. Eventful. I'm actually a little tired, and I think it's a combination of having been gone for two weeks (during which time a ton was happening) and the emotional and mental roller coaster I've been through in the last three days.

My birthday day was wonderfully rich with people and emails and phone calls from around the world. It all started at midnight with a special phone call and continued throughout the day, and I ended up pedicured and fed and content. Nothing like knowing you are surrounded by wonderful people.
