Leaving

Can't believe I'm leaving in a few hours! I stayed up working late last night to get everything done and clean at the office. I don't know if this is normal, but my mom taught me that the most important time to clean is right before you go out of town. I'm sure the people from my office don't quite get why I happily work in a pigpen for months on end but then after we say our goodbyes they return the next day to actually see woodspace on my desk and everything off the floor.

Of course I do this on the off chance someone may wander into my office while I'm gone. God forbid they think, 'oh gosh this place is SO messy and SO unorganized," which is what they think when they walk in and I'm in there. But at least if I'm there they eventually see my smiling face through all the piles of paper. I like to think this softens the impact.

I did my no-purpose-epic-unasked for "Web 2.0" presentation. Scott asked me if I had a power point presentation to accompany it. Darn! Knew I missed something. Anyway, I'm sure no one in the office will read the 15 page guide book (though it is mostly picutres!), but at least I had something to give them before I left. I'm calling it their souvenir, because they sure ain't gettin one from overseas.

On that note, I just had to pull out my dictionary to look up "souvenir" because I'm on my old computer that apparently doesn't support spell check in the blogger window. In case you were wondering, I spelled it "souvernier" which is how they spell it in West Tennessee. Again, it all comes back to the mother, who made me "sound out" the words to figure out spelling. Works great unless you speak redneck huh mom?? Oh, happy mothers day by the way :)
