In other news, today wraps up the 2010 winter games. Team USA took a hard loss in overtime in what was surely a thrilling game (they don't have TVs in academic buildings...shocking). I did manage to see espn just as they announced the final score and joined the masses on FB posting disdain for sid the kid. United We Stand (online at least).
Tomorrow starts the game of waiting. I should hear back about my interview in DC with NDN (progressive think tank). I am feeling cautiously optimistic about it, only because nerviness may have gotten the best of me. At some point I'd like to grow up and get a job; the impoverished student owned me for the better part of this last decade and I am craving some semblance of normalcy. Oh,and start paying back some of that imaginary number hanging over my head.
Last thought for today: go volunteer. It's so fulfilling to get involved with a group that provides service to a crowd that needs it. I went to Inspiration Cafe in Uptown yesterday, which provides dignified dining for the homeless. They provide dining variety, meaning they can pick what they want to eat from the menu, rather than eating whatever is cooked en masse that day. Even though it was a volunteer training I can't wait to sign up and do breakfast at 530am this week. It's seriously uplifting.
Speaking of food, my food just arrived. Signing off from Thai Aruma.
Good night, and good luck
