the good...walking around so much in london and paris has prepped me well for the new job... i think i've spent about an hour at my desk each day, and the rest of the time has been spent trekking around campus! including the campus tour i took today (by request of the boss man), and it was so funny to hear jokes that *i* came up with 7 years ago coming out of the mouth of the undergrad tour guide. i have a legacy!!! hehehe
the bad...someone should have warned me about the walking action ahead of time, as i wore new shoes on the first day, and have had a run of heels-wearing subsequently. tomorrow may have to be a sneaker day.
and the uglythe status of my car is fluctuating wildly, but i think i've been able to hassle them pretty decently over the phone. the due date went from the 19th to the 31st, then to this friday and then to tuesday, and for every time they change it on me, i get a little more, err, "firm". it's at the point where i'm having them call me every afternoon to give me an update, and if they don't deliver by friday afternoon, then they need to GIVE (not rent) me a car for the weekend. wish me luck on that front.
current mood: other than lame car-ness, things are good!
