Things I have learned on the new job:
  • Switching platforms is a big pain no matter which direction you go. Going back to an old one after 4+ years is better, but not hugely.
  • There's no need to buy lunch. StartupCo has an astounding quantity & variety of food on hand, some of which can be used to make a wholesome, balanced lunch.
  • Some women at StartupCo have a more... inclusive idea of work-appropriate than I do. They make it look good because they have much better figures than I do, but it was still a surprise.
  • Two social gatherings involving alcohol this week. I could get used to that.
  • There's at least one other Burner chick in the office. Ah, kindred spirits.


I've got all my furniture put together except a coffee table. My empty bin & boxes are stored in the basement. One trip to IKEA, a working vacuum, and art on the walls is all I need here.

M'boy is reading in the living room as I type this on the crazy-tall bed in the bedroom; he's staying with me until I go to zappy on Sunday. We are full of Red Mill. Happiness.

Woohoo! Conga rats on getting everything moved and set up. I'm sure you'll be getting the art for the walls in no time. And just remember, you're more woman than both those teen chicks from the walk to work put together.

I have the art. I've been collecting it for years.

YAY HOME!!! YAY COMPANY!!!

Wheeee!!!!

(of course, I have massive "back in Seattle" envy, with a pretty good sized side of Red Mill lust as well)
