We had a pretty productive Saturday...slept in, messed up some sourdough pancakes that turned out really gross, finished our taxes (Turbotax rules!), renewed my passport, and finally got rid of the last bit of our moving trash...all before 2pm. Days like this are great, now we can spend the rest of the weekend relaxing and doing whatever it is people in Connecticut do.


I found out this week that my company is sending me to London for a week in April, how cool is that?! I'm going to try and fly Joni out ahead of time so we can spend a few days over there exploring, anyone have any bright ideas of what we could do in 3-4 days? Everyone has been asking about my first week on the job and I don't really know what to say because its not that exciting. I have a big office (which surprised me) and I sit next to some pretty important people...which has its positives and negatives I guess. I spent most of the week reading up on stuff and giving myself a first-week orientation since my assignment leader has been gone all week. Its fun to "decorate" the office a little to make it my own by putting up pictures, but that only lasted a couple of minutes. I can't wait to get into the full swing of things and really know what I'm doing because all I can do right now is pretend. There is a really cool hot chocolate machine that I like to play with in the break room...well not really "play" with, but its yummy. Come to think of it, it doesn't sound like I did a whole lot this week, but I really did I promise.

We have met a lot of new people, and we really love it here so far. We can't wait until it gets warm enough to go to NYC and Boston because right now its just too cold to be outside for more than a few minutes. I'm going to try and post a video of our place from the outside, we'll do one of the inside another time if you are interested...if not, we'll do it anyways.
