ARLINGTON, VA.–We got back Tuesday night, and I feel like I’ve been sleepwalking the past few days. Thom has had the rest of this week off (lucky bum, good for him), whereas I’ve been back at the office. Can’t complain too much, though. Last night I went out with a bunch of co-workers for happy hour (one-dollar pints!) at Rock Bottom. Adam’s running joke of the evening was eyeing one of the waitresses from afar and saying, “I’d like to rock your bottom.” And then singing it to the tune of various songs. After a few beers, still funny.
Today our company is closing at noon to let everyone get an early jump on the Independence Day weekend. Yay! So all told, these two weeks amount to: (a) four-day New York vacation, (b) two and a half days of work, (c) three-day holiday weekend, (d) four days of work, and (e) weekend again! If only it were like this all year.
By the way, the new season of The Amazing Race starts this Tuesday. Our TiVo has been ready for days now. And speaking of travel, my New York trip report (with photos), which I know you’ve been waiting for, will materialize soon. I’ll give you this tidbit to chew on: early on during the trip, Thom had said we deserve at least one celebrity sighting, and on our last night in town, we got our wish.
One reply on “Back home”
I could just imagine Adam (whom I’ve never met, mind you) singing that to the tune of Justin Timberlake’s “Rock Your Body.” That would be awesome.
