#112; re-emerging

It’s been over a week now. Since I left the Day Job, since I started the New Job, and since I went a little bit crazy missing At Limbo. I can’t be without it, it seems. However, as there is a New Job to focus on, I wanted to tell you all a little bit about it and invite you out to an evening we’re hosting this week!

Along with the DC GOP, come join us for a fundraiser in honor of Marc Morgan’s campaign in DC’s Ward 1! (Ward 1 is home to some of my favorite live venues – 9:30 Club, DC9, Velvet Lounge!) I’m ecstatic to be Marc’s Campaign Manager and so incredibly proud of the team off volunteers we have at this early stage of the game. Info on the event is here, come on out in support of a great candidate & mix & mingle with At Limbo!

Also, while you’re surfing today, check out our site (which we’re still working on) & ‘like’ us on Facebook (because you know you like us!).

#111; I don’t know why you say goodbye

The day is finally upon me. As of 5:30 this evening I will no longer be an employee of my office. Three years of amazing research, mind-boggling opportunities (I did mention that time I met the PM of Zimbabwe, right?), and an incredibly amount of stress – all over as of tonight.

In the place of all of that? A job of 24/7 commitment, an obsession with local news, more blogging, more writing, more running, learning more about this great city and the amazing people who live in it. Instability. Couch-surfing. Suitcase-living. No health insurance.

I couldn’t be more excited.
