Going to Work in Tall Buildings

I've become one of them. The people who go to work every day. I commute to an office on the 18th floor of a downtown high rise. I run before the sun rises because I get home after it sets. I use the phrases, "at work," and, "in the office" regularly. 

The good news is, I have great office mates. Last week, some of us went to dessert buffet together. That's right, people: all the dessert you can eat. I had one of everything. It was delicious!

And the work is fulfilling. Our Mandarin learning program is shaping up well. The web site will be up soon and the program may just run at some point. 

But, lest you start thinking that I've been hypnotized by desk calculators, I leave for NEPAL tomorrow! Alison King, Katherine Caouette, and 26 days of trekking are on the horizon. The "real world" may have won the battle but it's nowhere near winning the war!

Anyway, sorry it's been so long since I've written. It's been the daily grind here, which just isn't very interesting material. There (hopefully) won't be much internet while I'm in the mountains, but I'll have plenty to say when I get back from Nepal. Talk to you in April!
