HELLO

Hello all,

So miss Sventstrup suggested to me that i should write a blog to chronicle my adventures here in New York. So here i am on a wed. morning at work writing my first blog. I want to start off by first stating i am not a good writer, nor do i have the patience/ attention span to write long well thoughtout posts. I imagine i will have some profound thoughts or insights at times throughout the summer but overall dont expect anything to likes of other notable bloggers: Kristen, Jenny?, or Andy. I digress...

Because im writing from work ill tell you a little about it. So far its been pretty slow. I haven't had much work to do but they tell me it will start to pick up. I hope. During my first week of actual work ( not training) i sat at my computer all day until friday after lunch. No not through the night, but all work day. I had nothing to do. And when i mean nothing i mean i can tell you all about whats going on in the middle east, what Cubs players are on the DL and how they are doing, and pretty much anything dealing with new federal legislation. Oh and im getting pretty nasty at Sidoku. The building i work at is amazing though. The entire building is powered by renewable energy which is AWESOME! Also, they have huge food areas with free food. Every drink/chip/cookie/fruit you could imagine. Its great. Also, the people here swear. A lot. No joke. I hear the F word atleast 20-50 times a day.

One thing that has been really sweet though is i brought in my bible and headphones to work. I was finding it frustrating that my time with God was being limited to after-work hours. So i brought them in and its been soo encouraging. I can listen to my worship music all day and read the bible. I do admit that im pretty discrete when i read. Not sure what the policy is and frankly i dont want to find out. So thats that.

Im not sure how often these will come. So charish it.
