It turned out to be dumb timing to state I was moving to more of a blog format only to disappear for a week. Actually, I haven’t disappeared as much as we have A-peered. It’s been great being back in Washington and seeing people. Of course, nothing has changed at all and that is just the way we like it. We really love it here and there is still no question we will return here when our ex-pat adventures are over. I guess we never really made it common knowledge that the initial 2 year commitment somehow got changed to 3 years during one of the contract revisions. We are already 8 months in though and time is screaming by.
Except for the super-fun weekend in Port Townsend for the wedding this has been more of a working vacation than anything else. Never really got bad jet lag in the sense of being completely out of sorts but we haven’t actually been very awake either. In bed by 10 almost every night is not exactly what we had in mind, but when somebody makes you get up at 5:30 in the morning I don’t feel like I have a lot of choice. We still hope to make everybody sick and tired of us before leaving though. Going to have to step it up a bit over the next week.
The Office
Me, Keith, and Gareth

so which one is which?
Unless Stever has a scotch egg hidden in his hand, I have no idea
Bryan, August 15, 2005 03:56 PM:Yeah, I was thinking Steve was more the Keith type. Talks less frequently, but it is usually very insightful when he does.
rainier, August 17, 2005 08:40 PM:yes, but I dont see J as the Gareth type. Which begs an interesting question, the whole who would you be if you were in The Office Universe?
Big P, August 22, 2005 04:26 AM:I'd be Finchy
