last night i had a work party at the new nationals baseball stadium. i'm slowly getting used to the fact that the firm no longer cares whether i work there and have accepted the cheese whiz and saltines hors d'oeuvres that they've been pushing at the recent company events.
in case i failed to mention earlier, they gave us a big announcement a couple of months ago and shattered my world. i have been harboring feelings of what we'll call hatred for the company ever since.
to my surprise, last night we had a "remaining few members of our market" event at the new stadium and it was actually really nice. they rented out a few of the club rooms and had a lot of fancy food and as many alcoholic beverages as you could dream of. it felt good to be important again and it felt a lot like old times, back when they cared about us.
i watched about three minutes of the game before getting bored. i spent most of the event eating, drinking, and bitching about the change with my friends. it was therapeutic.
andy is leaving tonight to go to NC for the weekend. i sort of miss him already. he's been traveling every week for the past two months and was finally home for this week and it was so nice to get to see him every day again. he's only leaving for three days and then he'll be home all next week, but still i feel like he's leaving too soon. after next week he is traveling for two months again. it's going to be hard.
