1-1/2 Weeks of Work

*Finishing up 1 and a half weeks of work!  The time has just flown by since I've been busy for the most part.  The first whole week was filled with meetings, but this week has been pretty open so far.  I've been deciding what to work on and asking people what needs to be done since my boss is out of town, though he finally emailed me to give me the task list priorities.
 
*Already having pretty much completed tasks 1 and 2 on the priority list from my boss before he even sent it to me.
 
*Half price drinks at sonic.  I was driving around town and remembered the half price drinks and made it to sonic just in time.
 
*Hanging out at Kevin's for dinner.  We decided along with another guy (Mark...see I remembered a name) to meet for dinner at each others places every Wednesday since we are each on our own (their "better halves" are out of town for the weekdays), and that way we can cook for multiple people and hang out and play games or something.  I will really enjoy hanging out without eating out.
 
*Slowly learning people's names and figuring out what they are working on.
 
*Reading Harry Potter 7.  I haven't finished it yet since I've only had 2 evenings after work to read it, but I'm far enough along that I will be able to finish in one more evening without staying up any of these nights.
 
*Flex hours.  If I don't feel like getting out of bed when my alarm goes off like today, no problem.  I got to work at 8:30 but still left around 4:50 because I was actually productive during lunch time.  I could have even left earlier.  They don't care when you get there or when you leave as long as you do 40 hrs per week and are there from 9:30am-2pm (core hours).

1. Yay for Sonic drinks!! Especially 1/2 price ones!!

2. Glad to know that you have remembered at least one name in a company of 80. Hehe.

3. Good to know that you are reading Harry Potter 7. You will have to call Andrew after you finish it so y'all can talk about it. Angela's friend Diane just read it and she and Andrew kept talking about it. So Angela and I went shopping and left them talking!
