Last minute
Busy week. Between work and trying to finish x-mas shopping, there has been little time for anything else. I have not even sat down with a newspaper in a few days. I miss my daily dose of news. I used to be able to scan the online versions at work, but not anymore. I hope to get back to more news worthy and current event type rants soon. I would actually like to look into writing freelance in the near future. That could be a new years resolution to work towards I guess. I wrapped presents tonight after doing some shopping after work. Tomorrow will be another night of shopping but hopefully I can get it done. The branch opening went fine. Still kind of organizing and getting used to the new office and getting a routine in place for me and everyone else. It is a lot more work than I thought it would be, but the challenge is kind of fun.
Went for a quick walk to Geagle tonight and someone in a car asked me for directions while I was waiting to cross the street and I actually was able to tell them where to go. I was excited that I knew how to get somewhere and could explain it by streets. I may actually be learning my Pittsburgh streets. I also used the actual street names and not the naughty nicknames that me, Paul and Alison use to remember them. We found it a better system for helping me learn my way around. I know, the little things excite me, but I take what I can get.
