Counting the days

I just keep falling further and further behind in Holidailies.  Last year, I had finals, and yet I kept up.  This year, I have a job, which technically should take less time than finals do, and yet I am behind.  But I am determined to catch up.  Two posts a day.  You should feel lucky.

I finally uploaded my White House Christmas photos.  You can find them here.  Really, if you've seen any of the clips on TV from the White House at Christmas time, you've seen these images.  But it was still a very cool experience and one that I may never have again.  I should scan the program they handed out.  It was amazing, prints of these paintings they had done for the event.  Very cute.

Two more days of work til I fly home.  I cannot say that I am excited about traveling around the Christmas season.  I also have never had to pack to go home to my parents' house for Christmas before... or ever, really.  Just when I came home from college, but that somehow didn't seem to count.  And after that, I was living close enough that I only stayed for a day or two and then went back and forth.  It was much easier.  Part of today's goal is to make a packing list.

Oh, and do work.  That thing they pay me to do.
