ANother!

Madison is getting 2 more trainees! Well one is Mohammed who was supposed to come 2 months ago and I just found out YESTERDAY that he'll be here TOMORROW! Crazy! AND Wen Lei matched one of our accounts and we will be getting a girl from the Phillipines named Marie on September 1st- i got an email from her and she sounds AWESOME! I'm sad I won't be here for her reception- but i'm NOT sad that I'll be in India!
Which brings me to my mini freak out. I leave for SSC on Wednesday and must have my entire apartment moved into my storage unit by then. Plus, be packed for SSC AND India because i have less than 20 hours between my arrival from Denver and my flight to India. Meaning, i have LOTS of errands and packing to do tomorrow. Right now i'm stuck at work and freaking out. Not good. I mean, it'll be fine for sure, just need to be VERY efficient tomorrow!
For those going to India- we're going to India! SO EXCITED
See everyone at SSC! I am also VERY excited for that.

P.S.- Carly- GREAT talk at the Wheat and Rye on Thursday night! Let's just say, we have more in common than I EVER imagined- and I have LOTS of new things/ideas to try- i'll let you know if any come to fruition!

Exhaustion sets in

So I was upset when I wrote the last blog. But, I went home this weekend and nothing seems to cure a bad attitude like a trip back toBoston for some Wendy cooking, seeing Jessie and some good old Boston cheer. Well one other person does.. So, I had a great weekend. Mom actually suggested that we go shopping (she hates shopping) and I made out like a bandit- huge sale at Bloomies meant a new suit for me! Not to mention we got to go to a Red Sox game and sit in the partner's box (meaning free food and booze), got to lay out at the pool and went to a fantastic dinner at the new 'hotspot' restaurant downtown. Bottomline, my spirits were lifted like whoah.
But I have a 6 am flight on monday morning and was up until 1 am at Dale Carnegie and then working on CO3 stuff. Our meeting starts on Thursday and I still have some shtuff to compile, but i'm VERY excited- WE'RE SO CLOSE!
I hope everyone is going to SSC- from Chris' description (hot tub anyone), it sounds like the place is stellar.
