Closing Time

It's a depressing time at the office these days. I have only two more weeks of work left and it's all very lacklustre. The OSPIRG crew, which has canvassed exclusively together for almost a month now and therefore has become very close, is finished for the year. For the last two weeks we have been driving everyday to Corvallis (even farther away from Portland than Salem is!), and we usually had sing-a-longs on the way back which were a lot of fun. Monday we will have to go back to the normal hubbub of the office and learn to intermingle again with different crews... Lame. Definitely the saddest part about the office right now is that my new summertime friends have all left or are in the process of leaving so they can start preparing for fall semester. Today was Ed's last day, and I think he must've been my greatest friend at the office. Kristin quit last week, so now it is only me and one more person left. It's so tempting to just be done now, but the extra two weeks will pay off when I am trekking through Peru and Chile... right?

  3. lol yeah, that's true

    and it wasn't director kristen, it was a core canvasser. the director kristen actually got promoted to regional something so she is moving to denver.
