grad party, friend code, KDE 4
Oy, what a week! I’ve worked at Lexmark every day since Monday, getting things finalized there and today was my last day. My manager took me out to lunch with about twelve coworkers, which was very pleasant, getting to sit around and have a real lunch with these folks, instead of just grabbing a chicken sandwich and working while I eat. Then I rushed over to campus for an exit interview with the CS department, since I’m graduating. And speaking of, that’s this Saturday–eeee! Kathy’s having a graduation party that I’ll be attending, along with Jon and apparently a crap-ton of other people. We’re going to have tasty Thai food and a chocolate cake, plus drinking afterward I think. Then come Sunday, Jon and I are going to visit his extended family for a few days, which is exciting and a bit nervous for me since I haven’t met his grandparents or brother yet. After that, we’re driving down to my parents’ place and I’m selling my brother a TV and stand that I don’t want hanging around my place, plus giving my mom a cabinet which she’ll probably use for plants because she uses everything for plants.
Also! I got high speed internet yesterday and now I can connect Animal Crossing City Folk to the intarwebz, so all y’all with a friend code can add me to your friend register. Here’s my info:
My name: Sarah
City: Daplo
Code: 3051-4270-0430
I start at Hewlett Packard on May 18, so I’ll have a nice week off between graduation and working. That’s the week I’ll be visiting families, but also I hope to hang around the apartment and play Wii games, haha. Tonight I’ll be going over to Kathy’s to mow her yard in exchange for doing a couple loads of laundry (the new place has no on-site laundry, bleh).
Last night after I got the snazzy ‘net connection, I got my PC install of Jaunty all upgraded and now I’m using KDE 4 instead of stupid old Gnome. I’m quite tickled with it because things work nicely and it’s all pretty and customizable. Here’s a screenshot for you:
