Last night I attended the first social gathering of my own, with my own people sans Jeff, since I've been here. I went for drinks with my co-workers! And I even enjoyed myself. The editorial office I work in consists of three people (that's including me) and three graphic designers. The other two girls I work with are both my age, plus or minus a year or two, so we're all pretty friendly. Last night I learned all about the inter-office mingle-ings, gossip, and what I could be in for in the future...There really wasn't anything that disturbing, so that was a relief. I heard a LOT worse at the Seattle Times. I actually think I might be able to move up the ladder pretty quickly where I'm at.

Next week, I'll get to spend two days shopping for items to feature in our wedding magazine. I work on five different publications so getting organized at work has been my biggest challenge. I think I'm getting there though. Organization is a huge part of my job, so I'm glad it hasn't taken me too long to figure it out. I'd definitely sink if I couldn't handle it. Let's just say, my computer has a LOT of folders on it, and sub-folders, and sub-folders...

Tomorrow Jeff and I are going on a brunch train ride through the central valley. I look forward to posting some pics from that.

Til then...
